To ensure your Back on Track items remain effective and in great condition, we recommend hand washing and air drying, especially for products with hard cases. Soft fabric items may be machine washed on a gentle cycle, but air drying is still best to maintain their quality. Tumble Dry on low heat is an alternative option for soft fabric items only. Hard goods (protective boots and the like) should only be hand washed and air dried.
If you're ever unsure about how to care for a specific item, hand washing and air drying is the safest option.
General Care Guidelines
All Back on Track products share three key care instructions:
- Do not wash at high temperatures
- Do not iron with a hot iron
- Do not tumble dry
These precautions help preserve the material’s integrity, such as elasticity and shape—not the therapeutic effect, which is embedded in the fabric and cannot be washed out or worn away.
Additional Washing Tips:
- Turn items inside out before washing (e.g., garments, coats, blankets)
- Use a mild detergent without enzymes and always air dry if possible. When opting to Tumble dry use low heat.
- Avoid bleach and fabric softeners
- For knitted items, lay flat on a towel to dry
- Waterproof or water-resistant products should be washed with gentle detergent; avoid those containing Aluminum Chloride, Enzymes, Silver, or Citrine, as they may damage the mineral-infused textiles
- Apparel and performance gear should be washed in cold water. If shrinkage occurs, gently stretch the item while wet to restore its original shape, then air dry
Storage Tip
Avoid storing products in direct sunlight for extended periods, as this can degrade the material over time.
By following these care instructions, you’ll help extend the life of your Back on Track products—and support a more sustainable approach to textile care.
