Product Care
Sylvia P Teamwear garments are manufactured to last, however due to the delicate nature of the fabrications used and crystal or sequin embellishments, steps should be followed to keep those garments looking exquisite every time.
Sylvia P Teamwear garments are made of delicate materials. To avoid pilling, do not let fabrics come into contact with any rough surfaces or Velcro. Overtime, fabrics may fade due to wearing and washing even when the care instructions have been followed due to the delicate nature of fabrics and embellishments used. Colour transfer may occur when light and dark colours are next to each other on the leotard.
Pilling can occur on sublimated or printed fabrics when they come into contact with rough surfaces. Rough surfaces are surfaces such as Velcro, concrete or rubbing from gym mats—any surface where the soft fabric might catch or rub overtime. Due to the nature of the fabric this is an issue we cannot avoid. It is important to avoid contact with rough surfaces to reduce the likelihood of pilling especially on the bottom sections on the garment. Sylvia P Teamwear will not be responsible for replacing or repairing your garment if pilling occurs.
