I cannot assess the specific condition of your Lululemon Define jacket without physically examining it. However, if your mom accidentally put the jacket in the dryer on a high hot setting, there is a possibility that it may have been damaged or negatively affected.
Lululemon garments, including the Define jacket, are often made from specialized fabrics that require gentle care to maintain their quality and performance. High heat in the dryer can cause shrinking, fading, and damage to certain fabrics, especially if they contain synthetic materials or delicate fibers.
If you suspect that the jacket has been damaged, you can check for signs of shrinkage, fading, or changes in texture. Also, inspect the seams, zippers, and any decorative elements to see if they have been affected.
If the jacket does show signs of damage, it may not be completely ruined forever. Depending on the extent of the damage, there might be some ways to salvage it or repair certain issues. Consider taking it to a professional tailor or cleaner who has experience with handling athletic apparel to assess the damage and provide potential solutions.
In the future, it's essential to follow the care instructions on the garment's label and avoid exposing delicate clothing items, like Lululemon products, to high heat in the dryer to ensure their longevity and performance.
