There may be slight shrinkage after washing, but given the quality of our fabrics this will be slight. You should expect a maximum of 3% shrinkage, but we factor this into our manufacturing. Please be sure to follow our care instructions.

They are machine washable on a gentle cycle and machine dryable on low heat. To extend the life of the product, you may opt to air dry. With proper care, they do not shrink.

All fabrics will shrink some. They range from .1% to 10% max. shrinkage. Most fabrics shrink more in the length than the width. We HIGHLY recommend you test all the fabrics you plan to use before cutting and sewing for production to make sure they will work for your needs.

Many items, especially those that are made of cotton, can shrink if the manufacturer's instructions are not followed. We recommend following the cleaning directions that manufacturers put on labels.

The majority of our t-shirts our made from 100% cotton that is NOT pre-shrunk. If the item is manufactured with pre-shrunk cotton, it will be noted in the product description. Like most clothing made from 100% cotton, the item will experience normal shrinkage when washed for the first time.

Yes, you can wash our fabrics at home. Rayon is basically a synthetic silk. It is not like the rayon of years past. It is made with wood which is a natural fiber. It is a breathable fabric and can be treated similarly to cotton. For best results wash our garments in cold water and hang to dry. Shrinkage should be minimal if proper washing instructions are followed. We do not recommend using a dryer or dry cleaner, as this will cause the fabrics to shrink.

In hard water there is a build-up of flammable calcium soap deposits that may mask the flame-retardant properties of the fabric. These deposits can often be removed in commercial laundering by a weak acid rinse using acetic acid followed by neutralization. For domestic washing synthetic detergents must be used. Most products found on today’s supermarket shelves are formulated with synthetic detergents and not soap but in cases of doubt contact Rhodia Limited Technical Service Department.

Tactile and Smooth are easier to wipe as they vinyl on the surface. Standard is paper based. It can be wiped but best not to soak.

Yes and no. We have found that the inserts can hold more moisture after they have been washed several times. However, multiple washings after that may not additionally affect the diapers.

If you wash the entire slipper, stuff the interior with a towel to wick moisture from the wool prior to letting dry. Dry them in a "toe-up" position at room temperature (so any remaining moisture will drain to the slipper opening where it can evaporate easily). For slippers with removable insoles, dry the insoles outside the slippers. Work the leather by hand periodically while drying to help keep the slippers soft and to retain their shape.

Yes, logs are lumber and all lumber moves. Lumber will expand when it is wet and shrink when it dries. If someone tells you their logs don't shrink...they're lying. The shrinkage of the log will be minimal if you get dry logs to begin with, and, keep them from getting wet before and during construction.
