To optimize the performance of your apace products, here are some guidelines to follow:

Before Wash:

• Close all zips and fasteners.
• Turn the garment inside out.
• Always refer to the wash care instructions on the garment label.

• Hand wash or machine wash on a gentle cycle in cold water (15°C-30°C).
• Use small amounts of high-quality liquid detergent.
• Avoid tumble drying; instead, use the gentle RPM spin cycle for these garments.
• For padded shorts, do not wring the garment to prevent damage to the padding.
• Avoid using fabric softeners, bleach, conditioners, or stain removers on these garments to maintain optimal performance.
• Hang to dry or dry flat. For padded garments, press out excess water before hanging.

Product Care Hacks:

• After your ride, rinse the garment in cold water to remove sweat. Avoid letting sweat-soaked garments sit for an extended period before washing, as sweat is a saline solution that can bleach and age fabrics prematurely.
• Cold water rinsing can significantly extend the life of your garment.
