Learn how to wash and dry your MUD\WTR Premium Eco Hoodie to keep it looking great. Simple steps for sustainable apparel care.
Quick answer
Wash your Premium Eco Hoodie inside out on a cold, gentle cycle and air dry it flat to preserve the organic cotton blend and fit.
Why care matters for your eco hoodie
The Premium Eco Hoodie is made with 85% organic cotton and 15% recycled polyester. This blend gives you a soft feel and durability, but it needs gentle handling to avoid shrinking or pilling. Proper care also extends the life of your hoodie, making it a more sustainable choice.
Trade-offs: machine vs. hand washing
Machine washing is convenient, but the agitation can be rough on the fabric. Hand washing is gentler and uses less water, but it takes more time. For the best balance, use a front-loading washer on a delicate cycle with cold water. Skip the fabric softener—it can coat the fibers and reduce breathability.
Step-by-step washing and drying guide
- Turn the hoodie inside out: This protects the outer fabric from friction and keeps the color from fading. Zip or button any closures to prevent snagging. Always turn inside out before washing.
- Wash on cold, gentle cycle: Use cold water (below 30°C / 86°F) and a mild liquid detergent. Avoid bleach or harsh chemicals. A gentle cycle with low spin speed reduces stress on the seams and fabric. Hot water can shrink the organic cotton. Stick to cold.
- Air dry flat, not in the dryer: Lay the hoodie flat on a clean towel or drying rack away from direct sunlight. Reshape the hood and pouch pocket while damp. Do not wring or twist—gently press out excess water with a towel. Tumble drying can cause shrinkage and damage the recycled polyester fibers. Air drying keeps the fit true.
