Washing my jersey

[Little Psycho]

I had lost my jersey ever since moving a few years ago and I finally stumbled upon it in my storage. The problem is that the numbers are stained light yellow. I’m thinking of sticking it into the washer with some oxi clean but was wondering if anyone has come across this? Kinda surprised it’s stained, had bought it from Team LA store.

Would love to help, but all my jerseys learned to walk on their own.....

Have you ever been on a hockey team?
Hockey jerseys are not getting washed.... ever

This creates the wonderfully aromatic environment in a hockey locker room

If you use a stain treatment, spray a little onto the numbers and gently scrub it with a soft-bristled or silicone brush. You are more trying to rub it in and distribute it on the fibers than you are trying to scrub it off physically. I would avoid the sparkly stuff. Let it sit for about 20 minutes or so then rinse it out. After that wash as normal.

If that doesn't take it off, it might be permanently discolored. Sometimes rubbing alcohol can work wonders, you just have to be careful with it. I usually try a spot with a q-tip first.

I was going to be a useless smartass but I see that was already taken care of.

I haven't encountered the issue you have. I just washed my jerseys with regular detergent, cold water to prevent shrinkage, etc. But those were the cheaper jerseys.

Fishhead has the best approach though - whatever you try, try it on a smaller area first.

Wash your balls with it in the shower.

Yeah I’ve never washed mine. Just Febreze on it and call it a day. Just gives it *~pErSOnaLiTy~*

Thanks for the tips!

If you put it in a machine wash you'll soon see just how good the stitching is

The yellowing just means it's now vintage.
