It will happen eventually :(

Answer 4

Wash it inside out and don't tumble dry. Make sure you iron it insideout too!

Answer 5

If you just bought it, it shouldn't already be peeling. You say you can't take it back... then whoever sold it to you does not reputably back their products, don't shop there again.

If it was done in a print shop, then it is low quality ink. If it's an iron on type of print, it's also of low quality.

Always wash them in cold water and never put into a dryer... the excessive heat from the dryer will break it down very quickly, and so will hot water.

Answer 6

u cant. use super glue to put it bak

Answer 7

the best way to keep a shirt like that looking new is to wash inside out! Any print that you don't want to fade wash the same way...you can use some fabric glue to reglue the pattern back on

Answer 8

not much u can do to fix it but to lessen the amount of peeling don't put it in the dryer.  Washing should be fine but dryer no!!  I had this happen to one of my shirts.  It was brand new and i took it out of the dryer and a ton of the print had been peeled off b/c of the heat.  altho it does look kinda cool with it gone but thats my advice!:)
