FAQs

What material is this polo shirt made of?

The polo shirt is crafted from a cotton-rich fabric, balancing the comfort of cotton with the durability of synthetic blends for everyday wear.

How should I wash and dry the polo shirt?

It is machine washable and can be tumble dried on a low heat setting. For best results, wash with similar colors at a moderate temperature.

Will the black color fade after washing?

The shirt is designed with excellent color retention to resist fading, but washing with similar colors and appropriate care will help maintain its vibrancy.

Does the shirt shrink after washing?

The fabric is engineered for minimal shrinkage, helping it maintain its size and fit even after multiple washes.

Is this shirt suitable for very young children?

Yes, it is designed for kids and uses a soft, cotton-rich fabric that is gentle on young skin, making it comfortable for daily wear.

What is the fit like?

The polo shirt features a comfortable standard fit with a flat knit collar and front button fastening, designed for ease of movement and a classic look.

Can this polo shirt be worn for non-school activities?

While designed as a school uniform item, its comfortable fit and durable fabric make it suitable for other casual activities where a neat appearance is desired.

Troubleshooting

Shirt appears smaller after washing

Ensure the shirt was washed according to care instructions (e.g., moderate temperature) and tumble dried on a low heat setting to minimize shrinkage. If significant shrinkage occurred, check washing temperature and drying method.

Color fading prematurely

Verify that the shirt is being washed with similar colors and that the washing machine is not overloaded. Using a detergent suitable for dark colors may also help maintain vibrancy.

Pilling or bobbling on the fabric surface

While the fabric is designed to be low-pill, excessive friction (e.g., from backpacks with rough straps) can contribute. Ensure proper washing and drying techniques are used, and avoid harsh rubbing.

Button has come loose

Carefully sew the button back on using a needle and matching thread. If the button is lost, a replacement button of similar size and color can be used.
