Quick Answer
From my own washing routine and the official Lorna Jane care guide:
- Cold wash only (gentle cycle or hand wash).
- Avoid fabric softener and bleach.
- Air dry flat—never tumble dry.
👉 These three steps keep colors vibrant and fabrics supportive for years.
Daily Care Routine
| Step | What to Do | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Turn garments inside out | Protects prints and seams |
| 2 | Use cold water & mild detergent | Maintains stretch and color |
| 3 | Wash similar colors together | Prevents color transfer |
| 4 | Air dry away from direct sunlight | Preserves elasticity and fit |
Pro tip: Wash soon after sweating to prevent bacteria buildup and odor.
Deep Cleaning & Stain Removal
Sometimes Lorna Jane pieces need more than a quick wash.
Sweat or Deodorant Marks
- Pre-soak in cold water with a teaspoon of gentle detergent.
- Lightly rub the area before washing.
Persistent Odor
- Add a small amount of white vinegar to the rinse cycle to neutralize sweat odor.
Delicate Mesh or Laser-Cut Panels
- Hand wash in a laundry bag to avoid snags.

FAQs
Q1: Can I put Lorna Jane leggings in the dryer?
No. Heat can damage the elasticity and shrink the fabric.
Q2: Is fabric softener safe?
Avoid it—softeners coat fibers and reduce moisture-wicking ability.
Q3: How often should I wash sports bras?
After every workout. The quick-dry fabrics are designed for frequent washing.
Final Thoughts
