FAQs

What is the fit of the M3600 polo shirt?

The M3600 has a regular fit, which is designed to be slightly slimmer than the original Fred Perry polo shirt, offering a more contemporary silhouette.

What material is the Fred Perry M3600 made from?

It is made from 100% cotton piqué, known for its textured feel and breathability.

How do I know if I should size up or down?

Given the regular, slightly slimmer fit, if you prefer a more relaxed feel or are between sizes, consider ordering one size up. Refer to the brand's specific size chart for measurements.

Is the twin tipping detail durable?

The twin tipping is a knitted detail and is generally durable. Proper care, such as gentle washing and avoiding excessive heat during ironing or drying, will help maintain its integrity.

Can I wear this polo shirt for sports?

While Fred Perry originated in sportswear, the M3600 is primarily designed as a fashion item. Its cotton piqué fabric is breathable for casual wear, but it's not technical sportswear designed for high-intensity athletic performance.

How should I care for the embroidered Laurel Wreath?

To protect the embroidery, it's best to wash the polo shirt inside out on a gentle cycle and avoid direct high heat when ironing. It's recommended to iron on a low setting or inside out.

What does 'subcultural standard' mean in the description?

It refers to the polo shirt's historical adoption and continuous popularity within various youth subcultures, signifying its enduring appeal and iconic status beyond mainstream fashion.

Troubleshooting

Shirt appears to have shrunk after washing

Ensure you are following the recommended washing instructions, particularly using cold water and avoiding high heat during drying. Reshape the garment while damp and air dry.

Color fading

Wash the garment inside out with similar colors and use a mild detergent. Avoid direct sunlight when drying.

Twin tipping appears uneven or damaged

Check for snags. If ironing, ensure it's done on a medium setting inside out to protect the tipping detail.

Pilling on the fabric

This can occur with natural fibers over time. Gentle washing and air drying can help minimize it. A fabric shaver can be used cautiously to remove pills.
