You bought a shirt with a machine pistol on a beer can. The least you can do is keep it looking good. Here's the whole science of not ruining a high-density print, in the time it takes to finish a cold one.
Washing
Cold water. Inside out. Every time. Hot water is how prints crack and blacks go gray. Turning it inside out keeps the artwork from grinding against everything else in the drum — think of it as putting the print in a holster.
Drying
Hang dry if you love it, tumble low if you're in a hurry. High heat is the single biggest print killer in America. We checked. It wasn't close.
Ironing
Never on the print. It's artwork, not a grilled cheese. If you must iron, do it inside out on low, and honestly — it's a streetwear tee, the relaxed look is the point.
Storage
Fold or hang, doesn't matter. Just don't leave it balled up damp in a gym bag or a truck bed. That's how good shirts die young.
The lifespan math
Treated right, a heavyweight tee with a high-density print outlasts three fast-fashion shirts and at least one of your hobbies. Cost per wear, it's the cheapest thing in your closet.
