Troubleshooting

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Vivienne Westwood polo, it is essential to follow specific care instructions. Due to the jacquard weave and embroidered details, machine wash on a cold, delicate cycle with like colors. Avoid using harsh bleaching agents, as these can compromise the multicoloured threads of the orb logo and the contrast stripes. Air drying is highly recommended over tumble drying; hang the shirt on a high-quality hanger to preserve the shape of the shoulders and collar. When ironing, use a low heat setting and consider ironing the garment inside out to protect the embroidered motif and the jacquard texture.
