Dry In Shade Symbol on Modal

This page gives a quick read on the dry in shade care mark for modal.

DryAir dry when the symbol is unclear.

Safe default

Use the label instruction and avoid upgrading to hotter water or higher dryer heat.

Common mistake

Reading one symbol alone. Washing, drying, bleaching, ironing, and dry-cleaning marks work together.

If the label is unclear

  • Use cool water for washable fabric.
  • Air dry instead of tumble drying.
  • Test a hidden area or ask a cleaner for expensive pieces.
