Care Tips for Happy (and Long-Lasting) T-Shirts
Pamper your embroidered T-shirt so that it lasts for a long time
At Maison Plumarius , we create embroidered T-shirts in 100% organic cotton , with a generous weight of 240g/m² . A noble, thick, breathable and durable material. But like any beautiful thing, it deserves a little attention to live by your side as long as possible .
Here are our simple and effective tips for maintaining your embroidered T-shirt with care, without stress or infernal machines.
💧 1. Wash it at 30°C maximum
Your T-shirt is made to last, but not to be submerged in a scalding hot bath.
Why 30°C? Because it's hot enough to clean effectively, without damaging the natural cotton fibers or altering the colors of the embroidery.
🧊 Think of it like a spa, not a sauna : your T-shirt prefers softness to intensity.
🌀 2. Spin at 800 rpm maximum
A good spin is like a well-executed dance: fast but controlled .
Too much speed can distort the fabric, pull on seams, or weaken embroidery stitches.
With 800 rpm , you get good drying without harshness , so that your T-shirt keeps its beautiful cut and its pattern well centered.
🌬️ 3. Air dry it
We know you like to save time, but your T-shirt prefers to take its own .
The dryer is the enemy of heavy cotton: it can cause shrinkage, hardening, or premature wear.
🕊️ Give it a little breeze, a shady spot, a clothesline: it dries gently, without stress... like a bohemian in the sun.
🔥 4. A little iron? He loves it
Once dry, you can restore its full appearance with a quick, gentle ironing.
Turn it inside out before ironing to protect the embroidery and avoid crushing it.
With a quick iron, your T-shirt will regain its shape, drape, and style. Ready for a new day, a new adventure, or a new memory.
🚫 What to avoid:
- ❌ Do not wash hot (over 40°C)
- ❌ Do not twist the fabric after washing
- ❌ Avoid repeated tumble drying
- ❌ Do not scratch the embroidery (it is tough, but it deserves your respect)
🧵 And what about embroidery?
Our designs are embroidered with professional, durable threads, tested for their durability.
But to keep them clean, bright, and well anchored :
- Wash inside out to protect the stitches
- Avoid excessive friction
- Never iron directly onto the embroidery
💯 Take care of him, he will take care of you
A Maison Plumarius embroidered T-shirt is not just an item of clothing.
It is a piece designed to accompany you season after season , memory after memory .
And with these simple gestures, you prolong its life, its shine, and its comfort — like a faithful friend that we respect .
