You should never use a washing machine to clean your Hoaka Swimwear nor should you tumble dry it. We recommend that you hand wash your garment after every swim session. Try to make sure that your swimwear is laid out flat to dry to prevent folds and wrinkles. In case folds or wrinkles do appear, you can iron your Hoaka, however just make sure to do so with a towel or another fabric on top of the swimwear as it is sensitive to heat.
We also do not recommend wearing your Hoaka in a spa or sauna since a temperature higher than normal could damage your swimwear. Please do not use sunscreen with alcohol as the alcohol can cause damage as well. We do not provide refunds for garments that were damaged due to not following the recommended instructions.
