A little extra care helps keep your BodyFlexx favourites feeling comfortable and looking their best. Follow these tips to help preserve their shape, stretch and finish.

Always check your garment’s care label first. Instructions may vary by fabric and style, and the label takes priority over this general guide.

Washing Your Shapewear and Activewear

Hand washing in cold water with a mild detergent is a gentle way to care for your pieces.

1. Fasten any hooks, zippers or other closures before washing.

2. Wash with similar colours.

3. Gently clean the fabric without scrubbing, twisting or stretching it.

4. Rinse thoroughly in cold water.

5. Gently press out excess water—do not wring.

If the care label allows machine washing, use a mesh laundry bag, cold water and a gentle cycle. Avoid washing with towels, denim or items that could snag the fabric.

Skip bleach and fabric softener unless the care label specifically allows them.

Drying Your Pieces

Lay your pieces flat or hang them to air dry, following the care label. Choose a shaded, well-ventilated spot away from direct heat.

Avoid tumble drying unless the label permits it. High heat can affect stretch fabrics and shaping components. Do not iron unless the care label allows it.

Let each piece dry completely before wearing or storing it.

Caring for Corset Closures

For waist trainer leggings and other styles with hook-and-eye closures:

• Fasten the hooks before washing to help prevent snagging.

• Avoid pulling or twisting the closure panel.

• Take care when fastening and unfastening—do not force the hooks.

• Allow the waistband and closure area to dry fully.

Caring for Neoprene Sauna Pieces

Neoprene sauna pieces need extra attention after sweaty wear.

Check the care label for washing instructions. When hand washing is permitted, gently wash in cold water with mild detergent and rinse thoroughly.

Allow both the inner lining and outer fabric to dry completely in a well-ventilated area. Avoid wringing, tumble drying and placing them on a heater.

Caring for Removable Pads

If your piece has removable pads, check whether they should be removed before washing. If so, gently hand wash them separately and allow them to air dry completely.

Reshape the pads while damp, and avoid folding or crushing them during storage.

How Often Should I Wash My Pieces?

Wash pieces worn directly against your skin regularly, especially after sweating. Clean workout and sauna pieces after sweaty wear, and avoid leaving damp garments in your gym bag or laundry basket.

Storing Your BodyFlexx Favourites

Store clean, completely dry pieces in a cool, dry place. Fold them gently, avoid overstretching waistbands, and keep hooks away from delicate fabrics.
