Heat kills recovery
Performance knits lose recovery when you cook the elastane. That bagged-out waistband after three washes is often a dryer problem, not a brand betrayal.
SOLENE care baseline
- Cold gentle wash
- Turn inside out
- Mild detergent, no softener
- Air dry or lay flat
- Do not iron elastics
Why care protects opacity
When recovery dies, the knit stays open under stretch. Good care is part of keeping leggings opaque when you bend. Follow the care list on each PDP.
FAQ
Can I tumble dry low?
We advise air dry. Low heat still ages elastane faster than air.
