Polyester has a bad reputation, but really shouldn't! Current polyester fabrics have a very nice feel. It's used a lot because it's extremely strong, durable, resilient, and resistant to creasing -keeping its shape really well. It's resistant to chemical damage. It's wrinkle, mildew and abrasion resistant, doesn't stretch or shrink and is easy to wear and care for.
Polyester is very often blended with other fibers. Garments that are 100% polyester are usually soft and smooth, almost satiny and have a little "give" to them.
Polyester is machine washable and can be dried on the low-heat setting in your dryer. We recommend using a touch of fabric softener when washing and then drying for just a few minutes to tumble out any wrinkles - and hanging to dry. It's a quick drying fabric.
Polyester doesn't always require ironing, but you can iron on a warm (NOT HOT) setting if needed.
