Care Instructions

Care Instructions

To protect your empire, care for it with intention.

Our premium activewear is crafted with high-performance fabrics designed to support you through movement and everyday wear. To maintain the shape, stretch, and color of your Empire pieces, follow these care guidelines:

✅ Do’s:

Cold wash only. Use cold water on a gentle cycle to preserve fabric elasticity and colour (preferably on 30 degrees spin)
Wash inside out. Helps prevent pilling and protects design detailing.
Use mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or fabric softeners—they can break down technical fibers.
Air dry flat or hang dry. Heat can damage the stretch and structure of your garments. Let them breathe.

🚫 Don’ts:

No bleach or fabric softeners. These can weaken fibers and affect performance.
No tumble drying. High heat can damage elastane and cause shrinkage.
No ironing. Our materials are wrinkle-resistant and don’t require pressing.
Avoid rough surfaces. Friction from gym equipment or abrasive surfaces can cause fabric wear or snags.

Extra Tips:

Wash with similar colors to prevent dye transfer.
Store your items folded or hung in a cool, dry space.
For longevity, avoid wearing lotions or oils directly underneath light-colored sets—they can stain delicate fabrics.

Empire Activewear is designed to last. With a little care, your pieces will stay as strong and supportive as the woman wearing them.
