As Moms First...

We know the nuisances that come with clothing. Some of the best clothes in the world can be the biggest pain to wash and take care of. But you never really know what you're getting yourself into when you're so awe struck by the awesomeness of the item.

Enter Sage + Main Crew

We are first, and foremost, moms. We want to take the guesswork out of the headache. So we've gone through the trouble to make recommendations on fabric care based upon not only the fabric itself, but also how yours and your guys' lifestyles may play into what you choose to buy.

Fabric Care

  • Cotton

    100% cotton items wash last longest with hand washing. If that is out of the question, which sometimes it is for us too, then machine wash in cold water on a delicate cycle. Air dry only.

    We recommend turning all 100% cotton items inside out to help extend the life of the garment.

    MOM TIP:

    Soaking clothes in cold water or a mixture of cold water and white vinegar for at least 15-30 minutes before washing can remove tough stains and prevent build up.

  • Cotton Blend

    These can be machine washed on a gentle cycle in cold water to prevent any possible shrinking or fading.

    We recommend turning inside out to protect the item against normal washing. If possible, air dry. If in a hurry, dry on low heat.

  • Cotton Polyester Blend

    Machine wash in cold water on a permanent press cycle. Dry on low heat and avoid liquid fabric softeners. Air drying can extend the life of the item.

    Bright colors in this blend have a tendency to bleed. For this alone, we highly recommend sorting whites from brights and darks to minimize any bleeding that can possibly occur (We haven't ever had our items bleed, but that doesn't mean that it can't happen).

  • Cotton Linen Blend

    Typically a Cotton and Spandex blend, these garments can be washed on a gentle or delicate cycle with cool or lukewarm water. Air dry on a flat surface only.

    We recommend washing in cooler water for the first few washes and always avoid liquid fabric softener.

  • Rayon Polyester Blend

    Machine wash on gentle with cold water. Turn inside out and place inside a mesh washing bag. After washing, air dry garment only.

    MOM TIP:

    NEVER wring, twist, or bunch up this garment blend. Hang garment on a non-metal hanger to dry and iron inside out to prevent fabric from shining.

  • Twill

    Comprised of 100% cotton, twill products can be machine washed in cold water on low cycle. Tumble dry low for best results.

    We recommend avoiding a liquid fabric softener.
