How do I care for my RipSkirt Hawaii items?Updated 3 days ago
As with all laundry, we recommend washing and drying items with like colors. White and darker or bolder colors especially should be washed and dried separately to prevent dye transfer.
To remove wrinkles, we suggest steaming or tumble drying on low heat with a clean towel for a few minutes. Some items may be ironed—please check the tag for each garment for specific care instructions and symbols.
Item-Specific Care Instructions
RipSkirts & Sport Skirts -
RipSkirts - wash in cold water with like colors with the velcro closed and in a delicates bag. This extends the life of the velcro and prevents it from catching on other items. Tumble dry on low heat with velcro closed and in a delicates bag for extra protection if desired.
Sport Skirts - wash in cold water on a delicate cycle and dry on low heat. Place in a delicates bag to protect the tie and grommets in both cycles.
Both RipSkirts and Sport Skirts can also be spot-washed and hung out to dry!
Solid color prints may require washing and ironing before the first use to remove packing creases. Most customers find they only need to iron their items once. To remove wrinkles, we suggest steaming or ironing on low heat with a cloth in between the fabric and iron to protect it.
Tops and Sun Hoodies - wash inside out with similar colors in cold water on a gentle cycle and tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. We recommend separating whites to prevent dye transfer from colors, and separating darker or bolder colors to prevent dye transfer onto other items.
- For the Sun Hoody, tie the drawstring ends together and place in a delicates bag to prevent damage or removal of the tie in the wash.
- Our Drop Shoulder, Fitted Tanks, and Everyday Tops can also be ironed. We recommend hovering over them using the steam setting, or pressing them using low heat!
Sleep Shirts - to prevent shrinkage, wash in cold water, turned inside out, and dry on low heat/hang dry or lay flat.
Sun & Tee Shirt dresses - wash in cold water with like colors on a delicate cycle and tumble dry on low heat. Low heat for iron.
Travel dresses & Popover Tops - wash in cold water with like colors on a delicate cycle using a gentle detergent. Tumble dry gauze clothing on low heat, or lay flat to dry on a towel or hang to dry.
Beachcomber & Travel Pants - Machine wash cool with like colors, and tumble dry on low heat. To prevent damage to the buttons and drawstring, we recommend washing travel pants in a delicates bag.
Sun Robes & Runaround Coverup - Machine wash cold with like colors, and tumble dry on low heat. To prevent the tie from tangling with other items, we recommend washing it in a delicates bag.
Beach Cozy- Machine wash cold with like colors, and tumble dry on low heat. Avoid fabric softeners and dryer sheets.
Travel towels - wash with the velcro pocket closed with like colors and with other towels. Avoid fabric Softeners and dryer sheets. We don't recommend washing travel towels with clothing in order to prevent the velcro on the pocket from snagging on other items.
Sun scarves - hand wash in cold water and hang dry.
Undershorts - wash in cold water with like colors on a delicate cycle and tumble dry on low heat.
Cargo totes - wash by hand and hang dry.
