How to care for heavyweight streetwear

Always begin with the care label on the individual garment. For Karvan heavyweight cotton and fleece pieces, a cold wash inside out helps protect the outer finish and restrained embroidery.

Use a gentle cycle, wash similar dark colors together and avoid overloading the machine. Air drying or hanging the garment away from direct heat helps preserve its structure; avoid tumble drying where the product instructions say so.

Store heavyweight tops folded or on a supportive hanger. Give the fabric room to recover between wears and address small marks early with gentle spot cleaning.
