FOR STARTERS
Your shirt is made from 100% Italian cotton fabric. It features imitation mother-of-pearl buttons with a matte finish, that we properly secured to your shirt so they don’t elope.
This shirt is made to worn all year round.
ONTO THE REST
Washing it is really easy:
1/ Put in inside out, preferably in a laundry net and wash it at 30°c max.
2/ Air dry flat or on a hanger. Whatever you do, no tumble dry.
3/ Iron it inside out on a delicate setting, max 150°c.
HEADS UP, RAW DENIM
We didn’t give your Denim Shirt any anti-shrink treatment, so it’s important to care for it properly: that’s cold washingand no tumble drying.
Note to owners of a Rinse version (the least faded): It may bleed a bit at first, so wash it with similar colours. Similarly, wait 2-3 washes before wearing it with white items, such as T-shirts or trousers.
FYI, OUR DENIM SHIRTS AND THE PLANET
Since 1 January 2024, the New French environmental legislation known as The AGEC Law stipulates transparency from our lot in the fashion industry so that you can make an informed purchase. As you can imagine, this is something that we fully support at Asphalte. So here's some additional information about our Denim Shirts:
- They’re 100% recyclable after being dismantled, which means that the day their services are no longer required every component can be fully recycled. If you stop wearing yours for whatever reason, you might want to consider making someone else happy by passing it on to a friend, family member or donating them to a charity. The best way of reducing an item of clothing’s impact is by keeping it in circulation, and only recycling it when there really is no life or use left in it.
- No microplastics are released during washing. Unlike many garments, our Denim Shirts have been designed to not release any microplastics. Plastic microfibres are tiny particles of plastic that are released when worn or washed and have a negative impact on aquatic and land ecosystems.
- They do not contain any hazardous materials. They’re manufactured in compliance with strict standards aimed at eliminating the use of harmful substances and other chemical nasties.
- They do not contain any recycled materials. We try to incorporate recycled materials whenever we can, unfortunately, it hasn’t been possible to do so with the Denim Shirts.
