Full details

This Trutex school polo shirt in blue is designed for active boys, offering durability and comfort for long-lasting wear. Its primary benefit is excellent color retention and minimal shrinkage, ensuring it remains a great value as children grow. A potential consideration is that while many variants are cotton-rich, some may use polyester blends, which could affect breathability for some users. Key features include a cotton-rich fabric for comfort, a flat knit collar, front button fastening, and a low-pill finish for sustained appearance.

The Trutex polo shirt is crafted from a cotton-rich fabric, designed to balance comfort with durability. Some variants might contain polyester.

How do I ensure the shirt doesn't shrink?

To minimize shrinkage, always follow the care instructions: machine wash at 30°C and tumble dry on a low heat setting or air dry.

Is this polo shirt suitable for all seasons?

Yes, the cotton-rich fabric provides comfort for year-round wear. It's breathable for warmer weather and provides a base layer for cooler conditions.

How should I wash and dry this polo shirt?

You can machine wash it with mild detergent at 30°C and tumble dry on low heat or hang it to dry. Do not bleach.

What does 'low-pill fabric' mean?

Low-pill fabric means the material is treated or constructed to resist the formation of small balls or 'pills' on the surface, helping the garment maintain a smooth appearance over time.

Can I iron this polo shirt?

Yes, if needed, you can iron the polo shirt on a low heat setting.

What is the benefit of the color retention feature?

The color retention ensures the blue stays vibrant through multiple washes, meaning the shirt looks newer for longer and maintains its intended school uniform appearance.

Troubleshooting

Shirt has shrunk after washing

Ensure you are following the care instructions carefully, particularly regarding washing temperature and tumble dry settings. Wash at 30°C and avoid high heat drying.

Color fading significantly

Check that you are using color-safe detergent and washing with similar colors. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight while drying.

Pilling on the fabric surface

While designed to be low-pill, excessive friction can contribute to pilling. Ensure proper washing techniques and avoid washing with abrasive items like jeans with zippers.

Stains are difficult to remove

Treat stains promptly before washing. Use a stain remover suitable for cotton-rich fabrics, following the product's instructions, before machine washing.
