FAQs

What does 'Cotton Piqué' mean?

Cotton piqué refers to a type of knit fabric construction that creates a textured, waffle-like surface. It's known for its breathability and slight structure, making it comfortable and visually appealing for polo shirts.

How do I know if the slim fit is right for me?

The slim fit is designed to be more tailored and closer to the body. If you prefer a looser or more relaxed fit, you might consider sizing up or looking for a regular fit option if available.

Are the mother-of-pearl buttons durable?

Mother-of-pearl buttons are generally durable for everyday wear. However, it's advisable to follow the care instructions, particularly regarding washing and ironing, to maintain their integrity.

Can I wear this polo for formal occasions?

This polo is best suited for smart-casual occasions. While it offers a refined look, it is generally not considered appropriate for formal business attire or very formal events.

How should I store the polo shirt?

It is best to hang the polo shirt to prevent creasing. Ensure it is completely dry before storing it in a closet.

What does the 'Golden Fleece' embroidery signify?

The Golden Fleece is the historic trademark and emblem of Brooks Brothers, symbolizing the brand's heritage and commitment to quality.

Is the blue color true to the image?

Color representation can vary slightly based on screen settings. The 'Blue' variant typically refers to a classic navy hue, suitable for versatile styling.

Troubleshooting

Polo appears wrinkled after washing

Ensure the polo is removed promptly from the washing machine. Use the gentle cycle and consider tumble drying on low heat or hanging to dry. Iron on a low setting if necessary.

Collar losing its shape

Ensure proper drying; avoid over-drying in a machine. Hanging the polo to dry can help maintain collar shape. Ironing the collar on a low setting can also restore its form.

Buttons feel loose

Gently check the stitching on the buttons. If loose, consider reinforcing with a needle and thread. Avoid excessive force when buttoning.
