Synthetic fibres are produced in an artificial way intended to have specific and desired properties, not least in training and functional clothing. Below are some examples of synthetic materials and advice on how to wash garments made from these materials in the best way.

How to wash different synthetic materials:
Polyester
Polyester is an easy-care synthetic material that is often used in training and functional clothing. The polyester fibres are long, which means that polyester garments are durable, keep their shape well and wrinkle and shrink minimally. However, polyester products easily become static and attract dust and odours, which means that polyester garments need to be washed relatively often. As compensation, the garments are easy to care for and dry quickly as the fibres do not absorb moisture.
How to wash your polyester garments The key to longer life for your polyester garments is washing in cold, 30 degree water. As the garments need to be washed relatively often, you save on the material if you alternate between machine and hand washing. Keep in mind that the polyester fibres are made of plastic, which means that they melt at high temperatures, therefore do not iron or tumble dry. Be sure to choose a detergent that is specially formulated to eliminate odours at lower temperatures as well as a specially designed fabric softener. Avoid conventional fabric softeners as they wear and shorten the life of some synthetically produced fibres.
Polyamide
Polyamide, or nylon, is like polyester, a synthetic material that is often used in cotton compositions due to its durability. Polyamide, like polyester, absorbs minimal moisture, which means that the material dries quickly and rarely or never shrinks or wrinkles. However, polyamide garments attract dust and odour, which means that garments made from this material need to be washed relatively often.
How to wash your polyamide garments Wash your polyamide garments like your polyester garments, in cold 30-40 degree water. As the garments need to be washed relatively often, you save the fabric if you alternate between hand and machine washing. Avoid high heat and fabric softener and choose detergent with care.
Elastane
Elastane, also called lycra or spandex, is a synthetic fibre with good stretchability and elasticity. The fibre is often combined with other materials, such as cotton, to create stretchy garments, such as jeans.
How to wash garments that contain elastane Garments completely made from or mixed with elastane should be washed cold, in 30 degree water. Furthermore, do not use fabric softener as this may damage the elasticity of the fibres. Elastane is a heat-sensitive fibre that does not tolerate high temperatures, so do not tumble dry the clothes but let them hang to dry. In the same way, you should use a damp piece of cotton cloth between the iron and the garment if you are to iron it.

Après avoir fait part de ma déception de ne pas avoir reçu les embauchoirs promis dans l'annonce, j'édite mon premier message pour le rectifier. Le service client m'a très vite contacté, après avoir pris connaissance du message. Il se trouve que c'est de ma faut car je n'avais pas renseigné la pointure des embauchoirs. Le problème a très vite ete réglé et les embauchoirs vont m'être envoyés. Je suis pleinement satisfait de ce site de vente en ligne sur lequel je continuerai à être client et que je conseillerais sans problème à mon entourage. Un site sûr, honnête avet un sav réactif et professionnel. Merci à toute votre équipe Cordialement, Jean-Yves
