If the product is exposed to moisture or sweat and subjected to strong friction, the color may transfer.
Please avoid wearing white or light-colored shoes or sandals as the color may transfer.
After purchasing the product, we recommend washing it before wearing it.
Although indigo-dyed products are treated to remove tannins and to naturally prevent color transfer as much as possible after dyeing, there may be some color fading or color transfer due to strong rubbing during use.
Please use detergent that does not contain fluorescent brighteners or bleach.
A brownish-yellow pigment may come out during washing, but this is a natural tannin component unique to indigo dyeing. With repeated washing, the tannins will disappear and the characteristic vibrant color of indigo dyeing will become more pronounced.
The scum may react to ultraviolet rays such as sunlight and cause discoloration.
Store away from UV rays.
If the item becomes discolored, soak it in hot water overnight and wash it repeatedly.
