Product Information
100% Cotton Kids Clothes. Everything is easy to wear, easy to care for and offered at the best possible prices.
- Sizing
Most items run true to size except where noted. Everything is pre-shrunk.
No more than 2% shrinkage will occur overtime with regular washing and drying.- Garment Dying
We garment-dye colors to order to insure color consistency.
We use low-impact fiber-reactive dyes. Fiber-reactive dyes are a
synthetic dye that chemically bonds directly to the clothing fiber molecules. They were first used commercially in 1956. The fixation or absorption rate of low-impact dyes is at least 70%, creating less waste water runoff and therefore a lower impact on the environment. Recent advances have created fiber-reactive dyes with colors that are brighter and richer, and they provide excellent colorfast properties. They contain no heavy metals or other known toxic substances, and they meet all European Union criteria for being an eco-friendly pigment.- Dye Lots
Items of the same color, ordered togther, are dyed in the same dye lot to insure the best possible match. Items ordered subsequently may not match previously ordered items of the same color.
- Color Fastness
We dye in HOT water. This helps create brighter, more vivid colors and also increases color fastness. We recommend washing dark colors ( especially reds and navy ) seperately the first couple of washings.
- Washing & Drying
We recommend washing in warm water with a mild detergent and tumble drying. Always seperate lights from darks. You will appreciate how beautifully our garments wear even after hundreds of washings.
- Handy Hints
For grease spots, use a lanolin based hand cleaner like "GOOP" (available in the soap section of your supermarket). Rub some on the stain (make sure the garment is dry), let it sit for a couple of hours or overnight. Wash in warm or hot water. This even works on old stains.
