5.2 If machine washing is undertaken, garments must only be washed on a cold wash setting of 20°C.
5.3 The use of fabric conditioner, whitening agents, bleach, or any other chemical additives is strictly prohibited, as these may irreparably damage the fabric or affect the colour integrity.
5.4 Due to the variety of fabrics, fibres, dyes, and finishes used in costume manufacture, together with the differing functionality and intensity of domestic and commercial washing machines, the Company provides no guarantee that colours will not fade, run, or change during or after washing.
When designs have large areas of white fabric, DSC can not accept any responsibility for any changes in shine of the white fabric as White fabrics are very sensitive to changing shade throughout the washing process

1. Definitions
“Company” refers to Dance Supply Centre Ltd (DSC). “Client” refers to any customer placing an order for teamwear garments with the Company. “Goods” refers to teamwear items including, but not limited to: hoodies, sublimated/softshell jackets, leggings, t-shirts, vests, accessories, or any other branded apparel supplied by the Company.
2. Ordering Windows & Production Cycles
2.1 Teamwear operates on monthly production cycles, as outlined in the Company’s Delivery Information Schedule. 2.2 Each order is allocated to the next available production start date, based on when the order is placed and payment is received. 2.3 Once production begins, orders cannot be amended or cancelled. 2.4 Delivery dates stated in the Delivery Information Schedule are estimated, not guaranteed, and represent standard lead times from production start to dispatch.
Delivery Cycle Summary: Orders placed before the monthly cut-off enter that month's production run. Production begins on the listed start date, and delivery is typically 4–6 weeks from that date. Orders placed after the cut-off roll into the next month’s production cycle.
3. Samples
3.1 The Company recommends ordering sample garments during the teamwear setup stage to confirm fabric, colour, fit, and print quality. 3.2 If samples are not ordered, the Client accepts full responsibility for any differences between expected and supplied Goods. 3.3 Where samples were not obtained, no refunds, returns, or exchanges will be offered for issues relating to fit, colour, or garment style.
4. Sizing
4.1 The Company provides sizing sets or charts to allow accurate selection of sizes. 4.2 If the Client chooses not to use the sizing resources provided, the Company accepts no responsibility for sizing discrepancies. 4.3 Teamwear garments are manufactured to industry-standard sizing tolerances; slight variations may occur. 4.4 No refunds, returns, or exchanges will be offered for incorrect size selection when sizing sets were not utilised. 4.5 Where a team has existing teamwear ordered by other parents we would strongly advise to compare sizes with other parents or get your child to try on another dancers outfit to ensure the correct size is ordered. DSC cannot hold any responsibility for sizing errors if this hasn't been carried out.
5. Customisation & Logos
5.1 All teamwear items are custom-made to order, featuring club branding, colours, names, initials, or logos. 5.2 Customised apparel is non-returnable and non-refundable unless the Goods supplied differ from the approved design/artwork. 5.3 The Client is responsible for providing correct spellings for names, initials, and other personalised details. 5.4 Errors arising from incorrect information provided by the Client will not be eligible for replacement or refund.
6. Rhinestones, Embellishments & Decorative Elements
6.1 Many garments supplied by the Company include rhinestones or other decorative embellishments. These stones are individually hand-applied, not machine-applied, and therefore natural variations in placement, spacing, alignment, and density may occur between garments. Such variations are not considered defects and will not be eligible for refund or replacement.
6.2 All rhinestones used are hotfix applied, meaning they are bonded to the garment using heat. This method is suitable for normal washing; however, to prolong the life of the stones, garments must be washed inside out, placed inside a pillowcase or protective laundry bag, on a cold 20°C wash.
6.3 The use of fabric conditioner, bleach, whitening agents, stain removers, or any chemical additives is strictly prohibited, as these may weaken the adhesive bond and result in stone loss.
6.4 Rhinestones and embellishments may naturally loosen or fall off over time due to regular wear, friction, stretching of the fabric, or washing. This is considered normal wear and tear, not a manufacturing fault. The Company will not accept claims, returns, or replacements for the natural loss of embellishments.
6.5 Where large rhinestone designs or patterns are used, the Company cannot guarantee that every garment will match another garment stone-for-stone, due to the hand-applied nature of the process.
6.6 The Client is advised that performance garments containing rhinestones should be handled and stored with care, avoiding snagging, friction, or contact with rough surfaces to prevent stone loss or fabric damage.
6.7 Any repairs or reapplication of rhinestones after delivery are the responsibility of the Client unless a genuine manufacturing defect is proven at the point of delivery.
7. Washing Instructions & Garment Care
7.1 Teamwear items should be washed inside out, on a cold 20°C wash, and never with fabric conditioner, whitening agents, bleach, or stain removers. 7.2 Items must not be tumble dried, as heat can damage print or fabric elasticity. 7.3 Due to variations in household washing machines, detergents, and water hardness, the Company cannot guarantee colour behaviour during or after washing. 7.4 The Company accepts no responsibility for fading, colour migration, deterioration of print, or damage caused by washing or drying methods outside the recommended care instructions. 7.5 White and light-coloured fabrics may naturally dull over time; this is not considered a manufacturing fault.
8. Orders & Payment
8.1 All orders must be submitted via the team’s online store and paid in full before entering production. 8.2 Orders will not enter the production cycle until payment is received. 8.3 All prices are in GBP and may be updated at any time prior to order confirmation.
9. Production & Lead Times
9.1 Production begins only on the scheduled dates listed in the Delivery Information Schedule. 9.2 Lead times are estimates and may be extended due to supply delays, high-volume periods, customs checks, or other factors outside the Company’s control. 9.3 The Company is not liable for delays arising from courier issues, supply chain disruption, or force majeure events.
