Handling Indigo-Dyed Products

This product is dyed using indigo, which is prone to color fading. Please be aware that color transfer may occur to other clothing or items during wear or washing. We kindly ask for your understanding of this product’s characteristics and recommend careful handling.

・ Be cautious of color transfer from friction
During wear, color may transfer to other garments, bags, chairs, or surfaces due to friction. Please take extra care when combining with light-colored or white items.

・ Washing instructions
The dye may transfer to other items during washing, so we recommend washing separately. To prevent color fading, especially in areas prone to rubbing, turn the garment inside out before washing. Avoid scrubbing and let it air dry naturally. Repeated washing will gradually stabilize the color fading.

・ Be mindful of water and sweat
Exposure to moisture from sweat or rain can cause color transfer. If the fabric becomes damp, color fading and transfer are more likely to occur.

・ Avoid yellowing from sunlight
When drying in a sunny spot, it’s recommended to turn the garment inside out to minimize the risk of discoloration from light.

Please handle with care and enjoy the unique charm of indigo-dyed products.
