ION Poncho Mini Grom

Washing: Machine wash at max. 30 °C on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Do not bleach. Turn the poncho inside out before washing to best protect the terry cloth. If washing it after a day by the water, it’s a good idea to rinse it in fresh water first, especially after use in chlorinated or salt water.

Drying: Cotton terry dries best in the open air. Hang the poncho to dry on a wide hanger or a rail, preferably outside in the shade. Tumble drying is not recommended, as it can cause the terry cloth to bunch up and lose its lovely softness.

Storage: Make sure the poncho is completely dry before putting it away. Store it somewhere dry and ventilated – avoid damp places such as the car or a wet bag. Iron at low heat if necessary, and avoid ironing over prints and labels.
