If that was my Red or Black shark..

No.1 - I wouldn't rock it for it to get dirty

No.2 - I just wouldn't wash it, very lightly iron it inside out, and it will look brand new.

Thats why you don't own one - you lemon. Clothes are for wearing.

No.2 - I just wouldn't wash it, very lightly iron it inside out, and it will look brand new.

^^^^Do not file under top tip - because it ain't.

Wash it cold and if that doesn't get the stain / dirt out (if there is one) do a 30 degree 'easy care' wash or whatever your machine does thats similar. Wash all my hoods like that and never a problem. Hang properly though.

depends on the stains...if its just a light clean then cold water and hang dry not in direct sunlight because then it'll fade...if its dirty than i suggest dry clean but make sure your dry cleaner know what they're doing

use vanish or stain devil - the particular shit for your stain before going the drycleaning route.

trust me.

You Have To Wash Them In Side Out To Prevent Fading

you guys realize these are just hoodies right. i actually tried something really novel last night that i must say i was scared to do but did anyway. i decided to wash my black neon hoody just like any regular sweater and dry it just like any other sweater, just to see the results. the hoody ended up fine and is still in basically DS looking condition, so no worries any more when i have to wash my hoodies :).

i hang my hoodies, i haven't noticed anything bad happen to em. shirts however, if they're hung too long then either the neck stretches or they get those indentions on the shoulder area (where the shirt hangs off the end of the hanger) :(

if it causes stretching just sitting in a closet hanger....

I think it would only cause stretching if it was wet.

fair play if you paid reseller price you might want to take good care but i always find if you learn to treat your clothes with too much respect you're going to have issues when they do bad things to you

bung it in the wash treat it mean keep it keen, i'm sure it won't come out any different

30 wash and leave out flat to dry.or dry clean with a good cleaner and explain the stain and how u obv want it removed.dont hang wet hoodys on hangers ARE U DUMB..?? and dont use stain removers as they fade the patch where the stain was.

Yeah, stop being so bloody precious! It’s a piece of clothing not Action Comics #1. These housewife questions come up all the time.

Wear it, stick it in the washing machine with the rest of your stuff, hang it on the radiator.

Eventually it will fade one day, but at that point it will probably be re-released again so just buy another one.

Or if you really want to front BAPE like your favourite pop star, get your maid to sort it out.
