### Mystery Stains on New Aritzia Sweatpants Spark Frustration

In a video with over 7,000 views, TikToker Sarah Blue (@sarah.blue.__) steps away from her usual gym content to rant about her experience with Aritzia sweatpants.

“Why is it every time you get new sweatpants from them you get tiny little grease stains all over?” she questions. “Look at them! I just got these.”

She points out small dark patches scattered throughout the leg of the sweatpants. Blue remarks that the $100 price tag isn’t “cheap” and wonders why the stains appear before the pants have even been washed. She also notes that the stains seem to set permanently after washing.

“Aritzia, you need to fix this issue because it’s so frustrating,” she says at the end of the clip.

### What Causes the Stains?

The mysterious grease-like stains on new Aritzia sweatpants have been a hot topic on the r/Aritzia subreddit since as early as 2022. Many shoppers share Blue’s experience, finding their new pants marked with similar spots.

One Reddit user wrote in 2022, “I washed my brand new sweats (inside out, in cold water), and when I took them out of the laundry I noticed these ink-looking stains everywhere. I’m guessing it came from other clothes in the wash but wtf.”

Another user posted a photo in 2024 showing similar stains on gray Aritzia sweatpants, expressing confusion as they didn’t recall spilling anything on the fabric.

### Possible Causes and Solutions

Several Reddit threads suggest that the stains might be caused by pouring liquid detergent directly onto the clothing before washing.

Some community members have also shared solutions for removing these stubborn stains:

– One user recommends, “Oxiclean, spot treat if manageable or just soak it in a large amount of Oxiclean solution. Wait 24 hours (or longer), then follow with your regular washing process.”

– Another writes, “I’ve stained my white TNA Eclipse top multiple times, and the one thing that has gotten the stains out for me is dish soap!!”

### Are Aritzia Sweatpants Worth the Price?

In the comments on Blue’s TikTok video, viewers debate whether the pricey sweatpants justify the trouble.

“I only wear American Eagle sweatsuits now and love them. Always on sale and wash no problem,” one user writes.

“For that price point? Absolutely not. You should not be getting those types of stains. Does it have specific wash requirements?” questions another.

A third jokes, “I’m glad I couldn’t afford them.”

Some also recommend alternatives or “dupes” for Aritzia sweatpants. One user suggests, “If you want the exact dupe of Aritzia and not the [expletive] quality, then Garage is the best. Also every color you could think of but without the annoying confusion of the Aritzia website.”

### Some Users Report No Issues

Not all comments are negative; some users say they’ve never encountered the staining problem.

“I have many and never had that happen,” one commenter remarks.

“I’ve never had it happen but I suppose that doesn’t mean it’s impossible! That suckssss :(” adds another.

### Final Thoughts

The stain issue with new Aritzia Sweatfleece sweatpants appears to be a recurring complaint but is not experienced by all buyers. For those facing similar frustrations, community-shared solutions like Oxiclean and dish soap treatments might help.

If you’re considering purchasing from Aritzia, it may be worthwhile to research care instructions carefully and weigh the price against possible risks.
