Why Hoolies use Zips

At Hoolies, we prioritize both functionality and convenience in our designs. That’s why we use two-way zips in our products. These zippers can be opened from both the top and bottom, offering several benefits:

• Enhanced Mobility: Two-way zips allow for greater freedom of movement, making it easier to sit, bend, or reach without fully unzipping the garment
• Improved Temperature Control: You can adjust the zipper to regulate temperature more effectively, keeping warm or cool as needed
• Convenience: Accessing inner pockets or adjusting fit is simpler with two-way zips, providing added practicality

Hoolies Quality Tests before delivery

Every item undergoes a thorough quality check before being dispatched to you:

1. YKK Internal Zip Test: Ensures the durability of the zippers.
2. Hoolies Test: Includes three tests focusing on zip pullers, overall quality, and seams.
3. Final Inspection: Camera footage of each packed parcel is reviewed.

Despite our stringent quality measures, occasional errors may occur due to human factors. If you encounter any issues, please inform us immediately, and we will address them promptly.

Wash Care for Plush, Cotton Onesies and Sleep Sacks with Zips

To maintain the luxurious feel and durability of our plush velour and cotton products, follow these care instructions:

1. Zipper Care
   Fully Zip Up: Always ensure all zippers are fully zipped up and inside out, to prevent damage to the zipper or other garments.
   Avoid Hot Water: Hot water can misalign zippers, warp them, and even make the pullers brittle, leading to potential breakage.
   Skip the Dryer: High heat from your dryer can ruin your zipper.
   Dry Before Zipping: Only zip up your garment after it has dried completely.
   No Direct Ironing: Do not iron directly on the zipper, as it can cause the puller to become brittle and break.
   Gentle Use: Avoid twisting or pulling the puller harshly during use.
2. Use Laundry Bags: Place the garments in a mesh laundry bag to protect the zip and fabric.
3. Water Temperature: Wash at 30 degrees.
4. Gentle Cycle: Use a gentle wash cycle with mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners and dryer sheets.
5. Air Dry: Air dry or tumble dry on low heat to maintain their softness and prevent shrinkage.
6. Ironing: Do not iron over the leatherette label.
7. Prints: Avoid excessive heat and ironing on focal prints.
8. Stain Treatment: Treat stains promptly with a gentle stain remover before washing to ensure the best results.

Zip Tip: Vaseline isn’t just for skin care; it also provides lasting lubrication for fixing stuck zippers.
