2nd wash and the logo is like reused plastic wrap. What the fuck this cost me 85 bucks.
I needed to make this thread to vent. Anyone else experienced this from buying any outerwear?

I had an elk jiberish windbreaker that I accidentally put in the dryer and the whole elk part melted off. Sucks bc I waited like 3 months for that coat and wore it twice before that happened. But live and ya learn ig

That sucks. If you can prove you followed the directions on the tag you might be able to spend the next 6 months trying to track down someone who gives a shit about this. Sorry.

The real question is why you paid 85 bucks for a purple armada hoodie. They are like 50 bucks.... for any color...... for the mens ones too.

Any clothes u want to keep nice/not shrunk just hang it up to dry and put it in the washer quickly after to just soften it. but yeah that blows. call Armada idk how their customer service is but people in the ski industry r usually understanding.

This could actually be a manufacturing error. I have had this happen a couple times, shirts with heat-applied graphics that did not fully adhere to the shirt. Then when I washed them the graphics peeled right off. I'd email them some pictures and see if they'll send you a new one. Couldn't hurt to try.

I can hardly speak from experience - but I did buy an Armada tee shirt when I was in Breck last summer and after two washes the logo started to fade out and the neck line stretched. I was disappointed.
