Our fabrics are designed to be soft and flattering. To achieve this unique feel, some of our fabrics are brushed, which can make it more susceptible to pilling. Pilling is a normal occurrence over the lifetime of the garment, but with proper care, you can minimize it.
How to Care for Your Paragon Products
Here are some tips to help reduce pilling over time:
Avoid High Friction Activities:
Try to minimize activities that create excessive friction while wearing these styles. đź’Ą
Wash Like-with-Like:
Washing similar items together helps reduce friction. ❌ Please avoid washing any of your Paragon products/styles with items that have velcro, zippers, or rough fabrics like cotton. It's best to wash gym wear together.
Don't Overload the Washing Machine:
Overloading the washer can cause clothes to rub together excessively, leading to friction and damage. Ensure there's enough space for clothes to tumble freely. đź’§
Use Gentle Cleaners:
Harsh or aggressive detergents can weaken the fabric fibers over time. Opt for mild detergents to extend the life of your garments.
Gentle Cycle on Cold:
Always use the gentle cycle and cold water. Turn your garments inside out before washing to protect the fabric.
Air Dry:
To further protect the fabric, air drying is the best option. Avoid using a dryer, as the heat and tumbling can increase pilling.
By following these care practices, you can help maintain the softness and appearance of your Paragon items! ✨
