Product Information
Full details
This Ralph Lauren Halfzip Strik Sweater in navy blue is designed for adult males seeking stylish comfort for casual or more formal occasions. Its key benefit is the combination of soft, 100% combed cotton with a classic mockneck and quarter-zip design for versatile wear. A potential consideration is the 'Regular Fit', which is wider at the chest, so those preferring a slimmer silhouette may wish to consider sizing down. Key features include premium combed cotton, a functional quarter-zip, and the signature embroidered Polo Pony.

FAQs
What type of cotton is used in this sweater?
The sweater is made from 100% combed cotton, which is known for its softness and durability.
How should I determine my size with the 'Regular Fit'?
The 'Regular Fit' is wider at the chest with a modern silhouette. If you prefer a slimmer fit, consider sizing down. Refer to the size chart for specific measurements.
Can this sweater be worn in warmer weather?
While made of cotton, the quarter-zip and mockneck design might make it feel warm for very hot weather. It is best suited for mild to cool temperatures or as a layering piece.
What does it mean that it 'Supports the Better Cotton™ initiative'?
This means the cotton used in the sweater is sourced through the Better Cotton™ initiative, which aims to improve cotton farming globally for environmental sustainability and the well-being of farmers.
How do I care for the embroidered Polo Pony?
The embroidery is durable. Follow the standard care instructions: machine wash cold, tumble dry low. Avoid high heat when ironing directly over the embroidery.
Is this sweater suitable for sensitive skin?
Made from 100% combed cotton, it is generally soft and comfortable. However, individual sensitivities can vary. If you have specific skin sensitivities, always test new fabrics.
Troubleshooting
Sweater feels scratchy after washing
Ensure you are using a cold wash and a low heat tumble dry. Avoid harsh detergents. If the issue persists, consider using a fabric softener specifically designed for cotton.
Color fades after a few washes
Wash the sweater inside out in cold water with similar colors. Avoid direct sunlight when drying and opt for low heat in the dryer. Ensure no bleach is used.
Ribbed cuffs or hem lose elasticity
Avoid excessive heat during washing and drying, as high temperatures can degrade elastic fibers over time. Ensure the sweater is laid flat to dry if possible, or use a low-heat tumble dry setting.
