Product Care

The fabric does most of the work. Cold wash, low tumble, fold neatly. Treat your kit kindly and it’ll outlive your favourite jersey — and most of your hockey takes.

Onesies (polar fleece).

• Wash cold (max 30°C) on a gentle cycle. Colour-safe detergent — no bleach.
• Turn inside-out before washing to protect the embroidered crest and twill panels.
• Tumble dry on low. The fleece stays plush; medium and high heat flatten the loft over time.
• Don’t iron over the embroidered crest. If wrinkled, hang in a steamy bathroom for 10 minutes.
• Skip fabric softener — it coats polar fleece fibres and reduces breathability.

Slipper skates.

• Spot-clean with a damp cloth and mild soap for everyday marks.
• Full wash: cold, gentle, inside a mesh laundry bag to protect the knit and faux-fur lining.
• Air-dry only. Heat can warp the rubber-nub sole and flatten the faux-fur loft.
• Stuff with newspaper or socks while drying to keep the foot shape.

Koozie mitts.

• Hand-wash cold with mild soap; gently squeeze, don’t wring.
• Lay flat to dry on a towel. Reshape the cuff while damp.
• If you spill — fast cold rinse, then air-dry. The plush sherpa lining is forgiving.

Union suits.

• Cold wash, gentle cycle, like-colours. The waffle-knit polyester/spandex is hardy but happy with low heat.
• Tumble dry low or hang to dry. Avoid high heat — the spandex content loses stretch over time on hot cycles.
• Fasten the drop-seat flap before washing so it doesn’t snag the fabric.
• Iron on low if needed, inside-out. The thermal waffle texture irons flat under heavy pressure, so a quick steam is better.

Storage & the long winter.

Off-season storage matters more than people think. Wash and fully dry the kit before packing it away — moisture in fleece is what breeds the smell that makes it feel old.

Fold; don’t hang. Hangers stretch the shoulder line on the onesie and pull the knit on the slippers. Cotton-canvas storage bags or a breathable bin under the bed are ideal — never sealed plastic, never the dryer for “long-term storage” (that’s how heat damage starts).
