Learn how to keep your Addison Rae Classic T-Shirt, Premium Hoodie, and more looking brand new with these easy care tips. From washing to drying, preserve the fit and print.
You finally got your hands on the Addison Rae Classic T-Shirt - soft, breathable, and perfect for everyday wear. But after a few washes, that brand-new feel can start to fade if you're not careful. Whether you're repping Addison Rae at a coffee run or lounging at home, proper care keeps your merch slaying for seasons to come. Here are the best Addison Rae apparel care tips to keep that ring-spun cotton looking crisp.
The Addison Rae Classic T-Shirt ($24.99) isn't just another fan tee. It's made from 100% ring-spun cotton - a fabric that's lighter, softer, and more durable than regular cotton. The pre-shrunk treatment means it holds its shape wash after wash, as long as you follow a few simple rules. Unlike cheaper tees that pill or warp, this one is built to last when cared for correctly. And it's not alone: the Addison Rae Premium Hoodie ($49.99) uses a cotton-polyester blend for warmth without the bulk, and the Polo Shirt ($34.99) offers a polished look that deserves the same TLC.
Every piece in the Addison Rae collection is designed with intention. The Classic T-Shirt features clean branding that's printed using a soft-hand technique - no stiff, cracked logos here. The design is meant to feel like a subtle nod to Addison's vibe, not a loud billboard. To keep that print looking sharp, turn your tee inside out before washing. This simple step protects the ink from friction and fading. The same goes for the Tank Top ($19.99) and the Premium Hoodie - inside out, always.
Let's talk about what you're working with. The Classic T-Shirt is 100% ring-spun cotton, which means the fibers are twisted for extra strength and softness. It's pre-shrunk, but that doesn't mean it's shrink-proof. Washing in cold water and avoiding high heat in the dryer will maintain the fit and fabric integrity. The Premium Hoodie blends cotton with polyester for coziness, but it's also prone to pilling if tossed in a hot dryer. The Polo Shirt uses a cotton-pique weave that resists wrinkles - just be gentle with the collar to keep it from curling.
The Classic T-Shirt has a relaxed unisex fit - roomy enough for comfort but not baggy. To preserve this fit, never use hot water or high heat. Hot water can cause cotton to shrink up to 5%, especially in a first wash. Air drying is best; if you must use a dryer, choose the lowest tumble setting and remove while slightly damp. The same advice applies to the Premium Hoodie and Tank Top. For the Polo Shirt, hang it dry to maintain the collar shape.
Styling starts with a clean, crisp base. Keep your Addison Rae apparel looking fresh by separating darks and lights. The Classic T-Shirt pairs with jeans, joggers, or shorts - and a fresh tee makes any outfit pop. For the Premium Hoodie, layer over a long-sleeve shirt for extra warmth without sacrificing style. The Polo Shirt is great for a more put-together look, but proper care ensures the collar stays flat and the color doesn't bleed. Pro tip: use a gentle, color-safe detergent free of bleach or optical brighteners.
How often should I wash my Addison Rae Classic T-Shirt? Unless it's visibly dirty or sweaty, every 2-3 wears is fine. Cotton doesn't hold odors as much as synthetics, so over-washing causes unnecessary wear.
Can I bleach the Addison Rae Premium Hoodie? No. Bleach damages fibers and discolors prints. Use oxygen-based stain removers instead, and test on an inconspicuous area first.
The print on my tee is cracking - what did I do wrong? Probably washed in hot water or dried on high heat. Always turn apparel inside out, use cold water, and tumble dry low or hang dry.
Should I iron my Addison Rae Polo Shirt? Iron on a low setting and avoid the logo area. Better yet, steam it to prevent flattening the pique texture.
How do I store my Addison Rae apparel to keep it slaying? Fold tees or hang them on padded hangers to avoid stretching. Keep hoodies on sturdy hangers to maintain shoulder shape. Store in a cool, dry place.
Taking care of your Addison Rae apparel doesn't have to be complicated - just a few small habits make a huge difference. The Addison Rae Classic T-Shirt is a staple worth protecting, and the rest of Addison Rae's t-shirt collection offers plenty of options to rotate. For hoodies, polos, and tanks, the same care rules apply. If you haven't already, explore the full collection to see what fits your style. And remember: a little TLC keeps your gear slaying every time you step out. Visit the official Addison Rae store for more fan favorites.
