Streetwear Hoodies: Your Ultimate Guide to Care and Maintenance

Ah, the beloved streetwear hoodie. Whether you're vibing outside the Queen Vic or exploring local markets, there's nothing quite like a stylish hoodie to keep you snug and spruce. But, like any treasured piece in your wardrobe, a little TLC (tender love and care) goes a long way in keeping it looking slick and fresh. In this guide, we'll dive into the top tips and tricks for looking after your hoodies.

Why Care Matters

Let's face it – hoodies aren't just for lazy Sundays anymore. They're a statement, a mood, and occasionally, a snug hideout from the infamous British drizzle. Ensuring your hoodie is in top-notch condition isn't just about aesthetics; it's about prolonging the life of a garment you can't imagine your life without.

Top Tips for Hoodie Maintenance

Washing Wisdom

• Always turn your hoodie inside out before chucking it in the wash. This helps protect the print and embroidery, ensuring your design stays sharp.
• Wash on a gentle cycle using cold water. High temperatures can wreak havoc on the fabric and elasticity.
• Not sure which detergent to choose? Opt for a mild one to keep those vibrant prints intact.

Drying Decisions

• Air drying is your hoodie’s best friend. Lay it flat on a towel to dry and avoid direct sunlight, which can fade those fab prints.
• If you're short on time and must use a tumble dryer, keep it low heat – otherwise, you might end up with a hoodie perfect for your little cousin.

Storage Strategies

• Hang your hoodie on a sturdy hanger to maintain its shape, especially if you've indulged in a "Hoodie in Sand with Dream Sports Tonal Logo Embroidery" from Dream But Do Not Sleep.
• To prevent those annoying hanger bumps, fold it Marie Kondo style, ready for your next adventure.

Combatting Stains

• Spilled your morning cuppa on your "Hoodie in Heather Grey with Vibing In The Moment Print"? No worries! Quickly dab the area with warm water and a mild soap. Avoid rubbing, or you might make things worse.
