To use this sweatshirt, simply put it on and enjoy the cozy feeling! When washing, turn it inside out and use a gentle cycle with cold water to protect the graphic design. Avoid using bleach as it may damage the colors. For drying, it's best to hang it up or use a low - heat setting in the dryer. This will help maintain the shape and quality of the sweatshirt. Also, since it's made to order, please be patient during the 7 - 10 business day processing time.
