Proper care of your Smith & Warren Flexible Badge is important to maintain appearance and functionality. Caring for garments with a flexible badge attached is easy. There are a few simple steps to follow when you wash, dry, or dry clean uniforms with a flexible badge attached.

Hook and Loop Washing Instructions

This is very straightforward! If your badge is attached using a hook and loop attachment simply remove the flex badge before washing. Follow the washing instructions specific to the garment.

Heat-Press Attachment Washing Instructions

For those polo shirts or bike uniforms with a heat-pressed flexible badge attached, simply turn your shirt inside out before you wash it. Choose a gentle or delicate cycle with temperatures below 95°F (35°C) to prevent damage.

Drying Instructions for Your Heat-Pressed Flexible Badge

If possible, avoid the dryer and hang dry your garment with the flex badge attached. If you must use the dryer, use a gentle or delicate cycle and dry at temperatures below 190°F (88°C) to prevent damage to the flexible badge.

What about ironing the garment with a flexible badge attached?

Avoid ironing on the Flexible Badge. Heat can deform or damage the flex badge. You can iron around the flexible badge, but never on it.

Will dry cleaning damage my Smith & Warren Flexible Badge?

Dry cleaning is safe for both the flexible badge and the garment. However, be sure to tell your dry cleaner not to iron on top of your flexible badge as it will damage it.
