Maintenance & care
To preserve the brightness of the Kaya Lumina print and the softness of its fabric, we recommend delicate care:
🌿 Care Instructions
- Washing: machine wash at 30°C (delicate cycle recommended)
- Drying: preferably in the open air, or at low temperature in the machine
- Spin: avoid intensive spinning to avoid weakening the fibers
- Ironing: at low temperature, ideally on the reverse side or with a fine cloth
- Dry cleaning: not recommended in order to preserve ecological inks and the suppleness of the fabric
💡 Tips to extend its lifespan
- Wash your shirt with similar colors to avoid transfers
