Essential features checklist:

Fabric (most critical):

Fitted tees should highlight natural contours with gentle compression—snug enough to flatter without being tight or restrictive.

Perfect fit indicators:

• Length: Covers waistband of leggings when standing and moving

Compression test:

• Can pinch 1-2cm of fabric (if can't pinch = too tight)
• Feels like gentle hug, not tight squeeze
• Leaves light compression marks okay, deep indents = too tight
• Comfortable for 12+ hours

Movement test:

• Overhead reach—moves with you, minimal ride-up
• Side bends—stretches comfortably without pulling

Proper care maintains shape and compression from 500 to 800+ wears—cold wash, air dry flat, avoid heat.

Washing (critical for shape retention):

• Cold water only (30°C or lower)
• Gentle cycle, turn inside out
• Mild liquid detergent
• NO fabric softener (destroys compression)
• NO hot water (breaks down compression fibers)

Drying (where compression is preserved or destroyed):

• NEVER machine dry—permanently destroys compression and shape
• Air dry flat (BEST): Lay on drying rack, preserves shape perfectly
• Hang dry acceptable: Hang from hem (not shoulders), use padded hangers
• Reshape while damp—gently pull to original shape
• Dries in 3-5 hours indoors

What to NEVER do:

• ❌ Machine dry (destroys fitted shape permanently)
• ❌ Hot water (breaks down compression)
• ❌ Fabric softener (ruins compression structure)
• ❌ Iron or steam (melts fibers)
• ❌ Wring when wet (distorts shape)

Storage:

• Fold (don't hang long-term)—prevents stretching
• Cool, dry place away from sunlight
• Never store damp

Quick care summary:

1. Cold wash, gentle cycle, inside out
2. NO fabric softener, NO hot water
3. Air dry flat, reshape while damp
4. Fold and store flat

Expected lifespan: 500-800+ wears with proper care vs 50-100 wears with machine drying. Learn complete care for EnCloud fabric.
