Caring and Feeding Your New WearPittsburgh T-shirt!

Friday, December 7th, 2007

Many of you who have placed the first orders with us should have already received your brandy-new t-shirts! We hope you love your new apparel, and that it becomes a valued and cherished part of your everyday wardrobe.

In order to insure that it maintains a long life, here are some recommending washing/cleaning instructions for your new shirt:

  • T-shirts should be washed inside out and set on a gentle machine cycle in cold water.
  • When drying: Tumble dry on low heat. (Make sure you are not inside the shirt at that time.)
  • To avoid possible shrinkage: Lay flat to dry. (This can also apply if you have just finished swimming in cold water.)
  • To maintain the life of the design, t-shirts should be ironed inside out on a low heat setting without the use of steam. This step also aids in refreshing the colors in the design. (This may also mean you should not wear it into a steam room.)
  • Dry cleaning is not recommended. (This will only anger your t-shirt.)

The rule of thumb is that as long as you do everything inside out you probably will be fine as long as you don’t wear it that way.

We hope you enjoy your new purchases for yourself or for your loved ones!

Returning the Love!

Tuesday, December 4th, 2007

I sincerely thank all of you that were the first customers of WearPittsburgh! You should be receiving your purchase very soon, and hope you enjoy them. Many of you have been spreading the word about our debut, including iheartpgh.com’s Lindsay who was kind enough to give us a shout-out on the DVE Morning Show. It really makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside, so thanks again!

All of the feedback on the shop and products are very much appreciated.  I know there’s some kinks in the shop interface, which we’ll be working to get righted as soon as possible. The store is still getting its sea legs, but keep the comments coming so we can make it a much better experience for all of you.

We’ve added a set of Pierogi shirts for men, and they are now available in the store! We’ll be making more product additions soon, and watch for a new design by the end of the week!
