I have heard that washing the shirt inside out and making sure to hang dry it helps, but I haven’t had the patience to find out
I do this, it definitely works but the wear and tear is still there. This does help shirts last longer!
I kinda see this the most with DTG printing. And cheaper silkscreening. Takes years for for the good silk screened stuff to start degrading like that for me.
I just stick with blank shirts
All my Hyena Agenda, Nomad Complex and 0Fox shirts have the best silk screening I’ve ever seen. No cracking, no peeling, doesn’t feel like hard or weird like low-quality Walmart shirts, etc.
Too bad the first two places went out of business. :(
Wash inside-out, cold cycle, hang dry :)
I have shirts from the 1980’s that are still in great condition, and then I have shirts from 6 months ago that are ruined. They’ve definitely cut costs to the point that the products we’re buying these days are disposable junk.
When this happens to me, I lean into the distressed look and peel off as much as I can.
Admit it, you peel it off because peeling is satisfying!
