The inside of your washing machine may be a rough and a tough domain for your clothes, especially for the delicate embellishments which include names, numbers, and crests written on the uniforms. Turning your football uniforms out on time from the washing machine will prevent your uniform embellishments from rubbing and wrinkling against the other clothes.

soon as possible after a stain occurs in your uniform.

To avoid other colors from running onto your uniform, always wash your
uniforms with similar colored garments. • AIR DRY:
