Climescape garments are designed to be easy for you to care for and last a very long time. We recommend that you wash your Climescape garments on a normal cool or warm machine wash cycle with regular powder or liquid detergent. Never use fabric softener or bleach.  Separate lights and darks as usual.  Garments can be tumble dry on low heat, as we  pre-shrink all our garments to ensure they will still fit you after the dryer. 

By following our recommended care guidelines, you are supporting a better environment now and for future generations.   Washing in cold water saves energy, washing without fabric softeners, keeps those added chemicals out of our water systems, is healthier for our skin and saves you money.  Laying garments flat to dry saves energy and extends the life of the garment. 

Complete instructions for best results:

  • Wash like colors together (e.g separate lights and darks)
  • Wash prints inside out
  • Close all zippers
  • Use cool machine wash on a normal cycle avoid hot water wash
  • Use regular detergent
  • Do not use bleach or fabric softener under any circumstances
  • Do not iron prints or labels
  • Lay garments flat to dry or hang – easier on Enviornment [or dry on low heat ]

MAINTAINING WATER REPELLENCY

Wash the garment with an additive-free detergent or soap.  You can use regular laundry detergent.  Do not use liquid detergents, delicate detergents or combination pods which may contain softeners as softeners will destroy  the water repelling qualities of Climescape garments.

NOTE: FOR ANY CLIMESCAPE WATER REPELLING GARMENTS NEVER USE FABRIC SOFTNERS AS THIS CLOGS THE POURS AND CAN REDUCE OR DESTROY THE GARMENTS ABILITY TO REPEL RAIN, SLEET, SNOW.

RECOVER WATER REPELLENCY

1: Unlike some DWR [Durable Water Repellent]  which are topically applied and wash off and need to be re-applied.   Climescape fabric has been modified at the molecular level through the use of nanotechnology, so when you notice your garment not repelling the way it did when you first purchased it,  simply use a iron set on linen setting, and iron the garment,  this recharges the molecules and will improve repellency.

 

  1. We however cannot guarantee this will work and do not warranty any products which are exposed to fabric softeners.

STAIN REMOVAL

Climescape garments contain release agents that are activated with warm water and detergent in all domestic washing machines. This will help dislodge tough stains and restore the original colour and texture of the garment.

SHRINK RESISTANT

All Climescape garments are pre-shrunk prior to construction to reduce shrinkage and maintain the garment’s original size and shape. Please follow the care instructions for ultimate garment performance.

LAUNDRY CARE

Using fabric softener or dryer sheets with Climescape garments will destroy the water repellency and must be avoided

          

DRIES FASTER

The water-repelling treatment undergone by all Climescape garments will restrict the amount of moisture the fabric can absorb, resulting in faster drying times than untreated cotton, saving both time and energy.
