How to Care for Your Club Ride Apparel: Tips for Longevity

You know the value of quality gear, and Club Ride Apparel is designed with premium fabrics that balance performance and style at all times. To ensure your apparel lasts for years and performs at its best, proper care can help it go the distance. 

1. Follow the Care Instructions

Every piece of Club Ride Apparel comes with care instructions on the label. No stress—there's no dry cleaning, ironing or anything you are going to have to call mom about for clarification. 

2. Wash with Care

  • Use Cold Water: Always wash your Club Ride Apparel in cold water. Hot water can damage the technical fabrics. Bonus: it's better for your utility bills and the planet. 
  • No Bleach: Let's keep those fabrics vibrant.
  • Tumble Dry Low or Hang Dry: We get it; sometimes you need that shirt dry stat. In that case, pop it in the dryer on low and see the magic of quick drying fabrics before your own eyes. Or hang it out to dry and let the neighbors know just how cool you are. 

You need to make a repair, now what?

We've all been there—blown a corner and took a dirt nap or a tree branch snags and tears your favorite shirt. It happens, but that doesn't always mean it's the end of that clothing's life. Here are a few ways we love to repair our gear: 

  • Get out that trusty sewing kit. Pick a funky thread color. Let the world know just how epic you are. 
  • Find a funky patch that reflects your personality. NoSo Patches allow you to patch up your gear while not looking like you took it to your grandma's house. 
  • Worst case, your gear is beyond repair for wearing out on the trails. If that happens, get creative. Dog bandana? Heck yeah. Grease rag? Why not?
