CARE GUIDE
Our garments are made to live in — and with the right care, they’ll last a long time.
Wash cold. Machine wash cold with like colors to preserve the fabric and dye.
Tumble low or hang dry. To maintain softness and perfect distressing, tumble dry low or air dry.
Avoid harsh chemicals. Skip bleach or heavy detergents that can break down fabric fibers.
Treat with care. Aviator Nation pieces are handcrafted — small imperfections are part of their unique character. Wash gently to keep them looking and feeling their best.
For embroidered and specialty prints: Turn garments inside out before washing.
NEON COLOR CARE
Our neon styles are extra vibrant — and need a little extra love.
First Wash: Always wash neon pieces separately before wearing to avoid color transfer.
Cold Water Only: Hot water can cause neon dyes to fade faster.
Use Mild Detergent: Stick to gentle, color-safe detergents. Never use bleach or fabric softeners.
Inside Out: Always turn neon garments inside out to protect their color during washing.
Gentle Cycle: Use a delicate setting if possible to minimize abrasion and keep colors electric.
Neon colors naturally mellow with time and wear — proper care helps keep the energy alive longer.
