Product Information

Full details

This Fred Perry polo shirt is designed for adult men seeking a blend of smart casual style and sporting heritage. Its key benefit lies in the premium cotton crepe piqué fabric, offering a richer texture and superior crease resistance for a consistently sharp look. A potential caveat for some might be the half-zip fastening, which differs from the traditional button placket.

FAQs

What is cotton crepe piqué?

Cotton crepe piqué is a knitted cotton fabric with a textured, slightly crinkled surface (crepe effect) and a distinctive raised pattern (piqué). It offers a richer hand-feel and improved crease resistance compared to standard polo shirt cotton.

What is the fit of this polo shirt?

The polo shirt features a 'regular fit,' which is a classic and comfortable cut that is neither too tight nor too loose.

How should I wash this polo shirt?

It is recommended to machine wash cold, inside out, with similar colours. Use non-chlorine bleach only if needed, tumble dry on low heat, and cool iron if necessary. Do not dry clean.

Can I iron this shirt?

Yes, you can iron the shirt on a cool setting if needed. It's best to iron it inside out to protect the fabric texture and the embroidered logo.

What does the 'single tipping' refer to?

Single tipping refers to the subtle stripe detailing found on the collar and cuffs of the polo shirt, a signature design element.

What is the 'Laurel Wreath' emblem?

The Laurel Wreath is the iconic embroidered logo of Fred Perry, representing the brand's heritage in sport and subculture.

Is this shirt suitable for sportswear?

While rooted in sporting heritage and breathable due to its cotton construction, its refined texture and design make it more suited for smart-casual wear rather than intense athletic performance.

Troubleshooting

Shirt appears wrinkled after washing.

Ensure the garment is washed according to the care instructions. The crepe fabric is naturally resistant to creasing, but improper washing or drying can exacerbate wrinkles. Try removing from the dryer while slightly damp and hanging to air dry, or ironing on a low setting with the garment inside out.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it persists, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) applied to the teeth can help lubricate it. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track.

Embroidery or tipping is damaged.

Avoid harsh scrubbing or ironing directly on the embroidered logo or tipping. Follow the recommended washing and ironing instructions carefully to preserve these details.
