Air dry flat or on a padded hanger

Lay knitted and stretchy garments flat on a clean dry surface or mesh drying rack. Hang structured items like blouses and dress shirts on padded hangers. Keep all items away from direct heat and sunlight.

Why It Works

Gravity pulls water downward through wet fabric. If a heavy knit sweater is hung on a hanger, the weight of the water stretches it out of shape. Flat drying distributes the weight evenly. Structured woven garments hold their shape better on hangers. Avoiding heat prevents shrinkage and fiber damage.

Tips

• Flip flat-drying items halfway through for even drying
• Place a towel under flat-drying items to protect surfaces from moisture
• Padded hangers prevent shoulder dimples on structured garments
• Allow 12-24 hours for air drying depending on fabric weight and humidity
