FAQs

Is the fit true to size?

Yes, it is designed with a relaxed fit. If you prefer a more tailored look, some customers choose to size down, but it is generally recommended to stick to your standard size.

Can this sweatshirt be worn over a button-down shirt?

Absolutely. The ribbed crew neck is designed to accommodate layers, making it a perfect piece for smart-casual layering.

What is loopback cotton?

Loopback is a type of knit fabric where one side has a smooth face, and the other side features soft loops of yarn. This adds thickness and makes the fabric highly breathable and absorbent.

Is this suitable for summer wear?

Due to the heavyweight nature of the fabric, it is better suited for cooler evenings or transitional seasons rather than hot summer days.

How do I identify genuine Lyle and Scott branding?

Always check for the authentic branded logo and ensure all tags correspond to the manufacturer's official styling and material markings.

Troubleshooting

Garment feels slightly stiff after washing

This can occur with heavy-weight cotton; ensure you use a small amount of fabric softener during the rinse cycle or shake the garment out before line drying.

Minor shrinkage observed after laundering

Avoid high-heat drying. If shrinkage occurs, gently stretch the fabric back into shape while it is still slightly damp.

To keep your Lyle and Scott Heavyweight Crew Neck Sweatshirt in optimal condition, please follow these care guidelines:
