As with other premium pima cotton garments, we recommend washing your Zenkai pieces in cold water with a mild detergent only — no bleach or softener. The most eco-friendly way to dry your apparel is to hang it, but you can also machine dry on medium heat. Do not add fabric sheets or any other softeners to the dryer. Do not wring dry or dry clean.

If you really want to, you can wash after every use, but remember that less washing means less environmental impact and a longer garment life.

Yes, all Zenkai apparel is pre-shrunk. However, since it is cotton-based, if you dry your apparel on high heat, there is a chance it will shrink more. The best way to preserve your gear is to hang dry or dry on low-medium heat.

To remove a spill the best thing to do is to rinse it with water or tug/pull on the garment to “pop” the liquid off. Do not rub the stain, as this will force it into the fabric. If the stain leaves a mark, wash as per our washing instructions.

You can train, play and sweat in Zenkai apparel multiple times without washing. Shake or snap excess moisture from the garment (it helps to turn garment inside out for this) and then hang to dry. Just give your garment the smell test to know when it is time to wash.
