FAQs
What material is this polo shirt made of?
The polo shirt is made from 100% high-quality cotton, specifically petit piqué.
What does 'petit piqué' mean?
Petit piqué refers to a specific type of knitted cotton fabric with a textured, waffle-like weave that is characterized by small geometric patterns, offering breathability and a distinct look.
How do I know if the regular fit will suit me?
The regular fit offers a classic, comfortable cut that is neither too tight nor too loose. If you prefer a very slim or an oversized look, this fit might not be your preferred choice. Referencing the model's height and size (6'2" wearing L) can also provide a visual guide.
What are the care instructions for the mother-of-pearl buttons?
The mother-of-pearl buttons are durable but should be treated with care. Avoid harsh detergents or high heat during washing and drying, which could damage their natural sheen or integrity.
Is this polo shirt suitable for formal occasions?
This polo shirt is best suited for casual and smart-casual occasions. While it features premium details, its design is not intended for formal events.
How should I clean the embroidered crocodile logo?
To maintain the embroidered logo, always wash the polo shirt inside out and avoid direct ironing on the emblem.
What does the 'contrasted tipping' refer to?
Contrasted tipping refers to the different colored bands or lines featured on the collar and sometimes the cuffs, which provide a visual contrast to the main color of the polo shirt.
Troubleshooting
Pilling on cotton fabric
Wash inside out and avoid high heat tumble drying. Gentle washing and air drying can help prevent pilling.
Color bleeding during wash
Ensure you wash with similar colors only, especially for the first few washes. Use a mild detergent and cold water if unsure.
Shirt loses shape after washing
Avoid aggressive spinning cycles. Gently reshape the garment while damp and air dry flat or on a hanger. Do not use high heat in the dryer.
Crocodile logo appears faded or damaged
Avoid direct ironing on the embroidered logo. Wash inside out to protect the embroidery.
