We warrant our items to be free from factory flaws or defects for the lifetime of the product. If your item has a flaw or defect, return it to us and we will repair or replace the product with a comparable item. These are wearables and like all clothing, components of clothing, and materials, they have a lifespan. All Tobacco Motorwear products are built to last. Depending on use, they eventually may need to be replaced. Our warranty covers flaws of material and/or craftsmanship should it fail prematurely; it does not cover normal wear and tear.

The protective lining is made of 100% Dupont™ Kevlar® and is 290 GSM.
It is utilized in key zones that are highly susceptible to road rash. In our riding pants, the 100% Dupont™ Kevlar® fiber lining covers from the thighs to shins on the front, and the whole seat area on the back of the pants. In Riding Shirts, the Kevlar covers from elbows to wrists, the shoulders, and the upper back. See individual product pages for clear graphics.
While virtually all of our protective products feature Dupont™ Kevlar® linings, some feature additional protective materials - such as D3O® armor to offer the protection you need, where you need it most.
Check out our blog post: Selvedge vs Archetype - What’s the Difference? for more details and a full breakdown of both products.

Ironsides
Definitely wash screen-printed garments inside out. This protects the screen print from abrasions from other items sharing the washer.
Wash screen-printed items with those made of the same (or similar) fabrics to decrease pilling and lint transferring.
Use a very mild detergent or a product like Woolite™ when washing screen-printed clothing.
Always wash in cool water. All water temperatures below 90° Fahrenheit are safe for screen-printed garments.
Hand-wash the garment if possible or use the washing machine’s gentle cycle.
Hang the garment or lay it flat to dry.
Use a cool iron, if necessary, and iron the screen-printed garment inside out.
Iron the screen-printed garment between two pieces of cloth to protect the design.
Don’t dry clean screen-printed items. The chemicals in the dry cleaning process can cause spotting or staining.
Avoid bleach, especially chlorine bleach; the agents in bleach will discolor fabric threads and the dyes used in screen-printing.
Do not use fabric softener on screen-printed garments. Fabric softeners degrade the ink used in the screen-printing process and
causes cracking and/or fading of the screen-printed areas.
If ironing the screen-printed item, do not use steam.
