💤 How to Care for Your Sleep Tee: A Cozy Guide

Your sleep tee isn’t just sleepwear—it’s your nightly comfort ritual. Ultra-soft, breathable, and made to last, it deserves a little love to stay in its best shape. Here’s how to care for your tee so it stays as snuggly as day one.


🌿 1. Wash Before First Wear

Before you slip into your new tee from mysleeptee, give it a gentle wash. This helps soften the fabric even more and removes any factory finishes.


🧺 2. Machine Wash Gently

  • Use Cold Water:
    Always wash with cold water to protect the fabric’s feel and colour.

  • Mild Detergent Only:
    Choose a gentle, skin-safe detergent—nothing too harsh or scented.

  • Wash with Similar Colours:
    Keep your pastels with pastels and darks with darks to avoid colour transfer.

  • Avoid Bleach & Softeners:
    Bleach can weaken the fabric, and fabric softeners can leave residue that reduces breathability.


🌬️ 3. Air Dry Only

Never tumble dry.
Instead, do this:

  • Lay Flat to Dry:
    Gently reshape and lay it flat on a clean, dry towel or drying rack. This keeps the tee from stretching or warping.

  • Keep It Out of Direct Sunlight:
    Sunlight can fade colours and dry out fabric. Let it dry in the shade or indoors with good airflow.


🧼 4. Spot Clean When Needed

Spilled something? No need to fully wash it every time.

  • Blot gently with a damp cloth and mild soap.

  • Don’t scrub—just dab and rinse the area gently.

  • Air dry flat after spot cleaning.


🧳 5. Store with Love

  • Cool, Dry Space:
    Keep your sleep tee away from humidity or direct sunlight.

  • Fold, Don’t Hang:
    Hanging may stretch the neckline over time—folding is best.

  • Let It Breathe:
    Store in breathable containers or on an open shelf so air circulates.


✨ Bonus: Rotate for Longevity

Have a few sleep tees? Rotate them so each one gets to rest. This helps preserve shape and softness for the long haul.


💤 With just a little care, your sleep tee will stay as cloud-soft and comfort-ready as ever. Because great sleep starts with how you feel—even before your head hits the pillow. ☁️💗
