【Natural Indigo Characteristics and Care Instructions】
Natural indigo dyeing fixes color through repeated oxidation and alkalization processes; however, slight amounts of incompletely oxidized components may remain.
These components create the unique depth and soft tones of natural indigo; however, when worn in hot and humid conditions, color transfer or brown/yellow stains may occur.
