With this years green shirts, I didn't have an issue with the wash. My wife washed the shirt with all of our other cloths and no dye bleed into the other cloths.

T-Shirt Washing Instructions

by GPCS - Grant Petch

Hi All: I had the same thing here in South Australia last year when we had those bright orange shirts. You have to wash them separately in a bucket soaking overnight with laundry powder, then rise them thouroughly at least 2 to 3 times with clean water until all excess dye is gone, then dry them out on the line. After this process they are usually fine to go through the main wash with everything else in they need washing again in the future.

If it continues to bleed on subsequent washes, then it is definitely not colour fast. Best A. Mani -- A. Mani ASL, CLC, AMS, CMS http://www.logicamani.co.cc

No we didn't try, but used a different supplier who assured us it wouldn't happen. Everything was done in a rush and we trusted them.
