Why do they make dry clean only and line dry items for KIDS clothing?

Simple-- a man made it. hahahah But really, I don't understand it either! My daughter never spits up, but the second you put something nice on her she throws up. I wonder who really buys dry clean only kids clothes anyway lol.

Hi! I've never heard of that, although I've ruined enough rayon blouses that I'm now a label reader for fabric content and care. I don't even buy clothes that need to be dry cleaned or ironed for myself! LOL If the care instructions list "dry clean," it goes back on the rack! :-)

I have never even seen an item of children's clothing that was dry clean only unless it was a special occasion dress (like a flower girl dress for a wedding). That is just dumb! I wouldn't even buy dry clean only clothing for myself! I guess my opinion is that life is meant to be lived, and when you live life you get dirty. I don't make my kids feel bad about being filthy at the end of the day. That tells me they did not spend their time watching tv or playing video games.

I understand your concern. I just won't buy these things. If I end up with something I would try to find a way around it. Quite often you can handwash with Woolite or some other handwash soap and ....dum dum dum... dry on the line or flat on a towel. Also if you must, could you try Dryel for home dry cleaning? I haven't tried it, and it seems I have tried to check it out and seems it is expensive, but cheaper than dry cleaning. Does anyone know if this works?

They are made because the manufacturers know there are people with more money than sense.

I would never buy them. I think that some people will buy them thinking they are better quality. As far as I am concerned, I look for bargains when buying my kids clothes since they either ruin them or out grow them very quickly.

I have wonder this but ya know they are for kids so they can all go thru the washer and dryer casue kids are gonna wear them out befroe they grow out of them. they will be stained and torn in no time so i never look at that label.

I never buy dry clean only anything. If it can't be washed and dried, then forget it. However, my kids have gotten dry clean only clothing as gifts. Needless to say, they were seldom worn and were worn only for dress up.
