FAQs

Is this shirt suitable for summer?

Yes, it is crafted from cotton, which provides excellent breathability, though it is slightly heavier than a standard jersey polo due to the knit construction.

Does it shrink in the wash?

To prevent shrinkage, always wash in cold water and never use a tumble dryer. Air drying flat is the recommended method.

How do I choose the right size?

The Elgin polo comes in a regular fit. If you prefer a more tailored look, you may choose your standard size, but if you prefer extra room, you may consider sizing up.

Is the zip-neck durable?

The zip is designed for longevity. To maintain it, ensure the zip is fully closed when washing to prevent it from catching on other fabrics.

Can I iron this shirt?

If necessary, use a cool iron on the reverse side. However, the knitted texture generally resists wrinkles well if laid flat after washing.

Troubleshooting

Garment seems slightly stretched after hanging

Avoid using wire or thin hangers. Fold the knit polo and store it flat in a drawer to maintain its original silhouette.

Fabric has minor pilling after multiple washes

Use a fabric shaver to gently remove surface fuzz, and ensure you are using a delicate cycle and a protective laundry bag for future washes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Luke 1977 polo retains its shape and texture, follow these care instructions carefully:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle, preferably using a mesh laundry bag to prevent snagging on other items.
  2. Temperature: Use cold water to maintain the integrity of the cotton fibers.
  3. Drying: Do not tumble dry. Lay the garment flat on a clean surface to air dry, avoiding direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
  4. Storage: Fold the shirt rather than hanging it to prevent the knitted shoulders from stretching over time.
  5. Compatibility: The regular fit is true to size; consult the sizing options ranging from S to XXXL to find your best match.
