FAQs

What does 'Fitted' mean in the product description?

'Fitted' indicates a silhouette that is closer to the body, with a slimmer cut through the waist and chest, and sleeves that mould to the biceps.

How do I determine my correct size?

Refer to the provided size chart and measurements (e.g., Size M: front body length of 67.3cm, rear body length of 69.8cm, shoulders of 44.4cm and chest of 48.3cm). Compare these to your own measurements for the best fit.

Is this shirt suitable for formal occasions?

This polo shirt is designed for smart-casual wear. While versatile, it is generally not suitable for formal events.

What is the significance of the blue pony logo?

The embroidered blue pony logo is the signature emblem of Ralph Lauren, representing classic American style and the brand's heritage.

Can I wear this shirt in hot weather?

Yes, the 100% cotton pique fabric is airy and breathable, making it a comfortable choice for warm weather.

How should I care for the embroidered logo?

Avoid ironing directly on the embroidered logo. If ironing is necessary, use a low heat setting and iron on the reverse side or place a cloth over the logo.

Are there other colors or fits available?

While this guide focuses on the Purple, Regular Fit (Size M), Polo Ralph Lauren offers this style in various colors and fits, including Slim Fit, across different sizes.

Troubleshooting

Shirt appears too tight or restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the fit is consistently too slim, consider an alternative fit or style that better suits your preference.

Color fading after washing.

Always wash according to the care instructions: machine wash cold at 30°C on a delicate cycle. Use a mild detergent and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight while drying.

Pilling or fabric damage.

Avoid harsh washing cycles or excessive friction. Air drying is recommended over machine drying to prevent damage.

Collar losing its shape.

Ensure the collar is laid flat when drying. Avoid over-washing or harsh detergents. If ironing is needed, use a low heat setting.
