FAQs

 

• How should I wash my products? 
  
  Every piece that goes out has been washed twice by hand with Synthrapol, which is a dye suspension detergent. Even so, there may be a chance some dye particles remain (especially with darker colors). Due to this we recommend washing all products alone the first time they need to be laundered. After this first wash, they can then be incorporated into your normal laundry routine.
  
  Please wash all pair of socks with cold water on the delicate setting - any detergent without bleach is fine. Let air dry or dry on low heat.

• What makes clothing fire safe? 
  
  There are many ways to have your costuming for fire performance be safer, but as always, spin with a fire safety present! Please note that 'fire safe' itself is a misnomer - all fire safe fabrics will burn to ash instead of melting. Natural fibers are a good rule of thumb to follow (think wool, cotton, and leather). Any blend above 80% - 85% cotton typically passes our burn tests. 
   
  We highly recommend looking at the Flow Arts Institute website under the 'Safety Training' section for more information.
