Care Guide

To maintain the distinctive character of your Unpractical garments, follow these essential care instructions for all items (hoodies, tees, sweatpants, shorts, denim, and more):

Universal Care Instructions

  • Before Washing: Always turn garments inside out. For zippered items, zip up completely.

  • Washing: Use cold water on a gentle cycle with mild detergent.

  • Drying: Hang dry only—tumble drying may compromise fabrics and designs.

  • Avoid:

    • Fabric softeners (they break down materials and finishes)

    • Bleach (causes fading and discoloration)

    • Direct ironing over prints, embroidery, or embellishments

  • Note: Some detailing (like rhinestones or distressed elements) may naturally evolve with wear—this enhances your garment's unique character.


Special Care for Specific Fabrics

Jackets

  • Dry clean recommended for best results

  • If washing, use cold delicate cycle and remove faux fur trim

  • Always air dry—never machine dry

Denim & Heavyweight Cotton

  • Turn inside out to preserve finishes and hardware

  • Spot clean to maintain intentional distressing

Premium Brushed Cotton

  • Wash with similar colors to preserve rich tones

Blankets & Oversized Pieces

  • Lay flat to dry to maintain shape and texture


Pro Tip:
 When in doubt, hand wash in cold water with mild detergent for delicate items.

Your Unpractical pieces are designed to develop character over time—proper care ensures they age beautifully while maintaining their distinctive style.

Note: Vintage washes and artful distressing will naturally evolve with wear, making each piece uniquely yours.
