Washing Instructions

Caring for your Cubwear outfits is essential to ensure they last for many years and can even be passed down to a sibling or friend. We put our outfits through rigorous testing, washing them around six times to check for fading or shrinking issues. Here are some tips to help keep your little Cubwear outfits in top condition.

Firstly you should always set the wash temperature to 30 or 40 degrees. If any higher and you may risk shrinkage.

Christmas Pyjamas

When you wash your Signature Range Christmas Pyjamas for the first time, you’ll notice they become even softer. This is thanks to the high-quality cotton fabrics we use in our signature range, designed to provide maximum comfort and durability.

Baby Clothes

• It is always best to wash brand-new baby clothes before they are worn – this makes sure any possible impurities are removed before putting them next to your baby's delicate skin.

• Separate the clothes out into whites and colours as you would do your normal wash. Remove any heavy soiling such as stuck on food, baby sick or poo with a wipe or by rinsing under a tap. 

• If anyone in the household has been ill, your baby's clothes should be washed separately from any clothes or bedding that could be infected because bacteria can still spread during washing.

• Tough stains should be left to soak before washing. If you do use bleach on your baby’s whites, make sure they are washed and rinsed thoroughly.

 

Buy practical fabrics

• Look out for clothing that is easy to wash and quick drying. Cotton is perfect for babies as it is breathable which helps to prevent them from sweating and is soft against their skin.

• Avoid buying delicate fabrics that have special care instructions; the last thing a busy parent needs is to be hand washing.

• Steer clear of clothes with details sewn on such as sequins. These make it difficult to wash and, more importantly, risk coming off and being swallowed by your baby.
