Take Care of Your Kit, And It’ll Take Care of You
Maintaining your Neo Hyphen cycling kit is like caring for a good relationship, treat it with respect, show it some love and it’ll stick with you for the long haul. But seriously, give your apparel the attention it deserves to keep it looking and performing at its best. With these simple care tips, your Neo Hyphen cycling kit will stay in top shape, ready for your next cycle.
Avoid Abrasive Surfaces
Keep your kit away from harsh surfaces like velcro, wood, or concrete. These can cause damage in the form of snags or general wear over time.
Wash in Cold Water
Hand wash or use a delicate machine cycle in cold water (under 30°C). Hot water can break down the fabric and affect performance.
Rinse Before Washing
Straight after your ride, rinse off any soil or sweat before washing your cycling gear to prevent any dirt from setting in.
Wash Separately
Wash your Neo Hyphen kit separately from your regular clothes. This keeps it safe from any potential damage.
Wash Inside Out
Turn your garments inside out before washing. And don’t forget to close all zippers and velcro to prevent snagging.
Avoid Soaking
No need to soak your gear for long periods, quick washes are better for maintaining the fabric integrity.
Use Quality Detergent
Choose a high-quality detergent specifically designed for cycling apparel to keep your kit fresh without compromising the fabric.
Skip Fabric Softener
Fabric softeners, dry cleaning and bleach are a no-go! They can break down the fibres and damage the performance of your kit.
Hang Dry Only
No tumble drying, always hang dry your cycling gear. This helps maintain the shape and performance of your apparel.
