BARONS | CARE GUIDE

Underarm stains are often caused by the reaction between anti-perspirant and sweat. Most anti-perspirants contain aluminium compounds. The aluminium builds-up and can cause yellowing on the fabric over time. We recommend to use aluminium-free deodorants or a deodorant with minimal aluminium.

To remove these yellow stains, mix equal part colourless dishwasher liquid detergent and citric acid, and dilute the mixture with a little cold water. Apply the mixture on the stain for ~20 minutes and rinse off with cold water and wash according to the washing instructions, found on the care label on the inside of the shirt.

If your shirt has turned yellow, there are several ways of fixing the problem. The easiest way is to wash the shirt with a washing detergent with optical bleach (we normally don't recommend this for environmental reasons).

Alternatively you can soak the shirt in a mix of citric acid and soda for ~20 min. Hereafter wash the shirt according to the washing instructions.

We normally do not recommend dry-cleaning due to the environmental impact (this does not apply for all cleaners). However, if needed then please instruct your cleaner to use light press and no starch. Do not press the shirt collar, cuffs and front placket, as it may cause the buttons to break.
