Full details

FAQs

Is this jumper truly unisex?

Yes, the design is based on men's sizing, but it is intended for unisex wear. Women are generally advised to order one size down from their usual size for a better fit.

How should I interpret the size guide for women?

If you typically wear a women's large, consider ordering a medium in this unisex style. It's always best to check the specific measurements provided (e.g., chest, length) against your own for accuracy.

What does 'intarsia' mean for the flag design?

Intarsia is a knitting technique where colored yarns are knitted directly into the fabric in a pattern, creating a seamless, integrated design without appliqué or printing. This makes the flag design durable and part of the fabric itself.

Can I wear this in warm weather?

While it is made of 100% cotton, it is a jumper (sweater). It's best suited for cooler weather or air-conditioned environments. For warmer weather, consider lighter knitwear options.

What is the significance of the 13 stars and stripes?

These elements are reminiscent of early American flags, such as the one that inspired 'The Star-Spangled Banner'. Ralph Lauren has a history of supporting American heritage and iconic designs.

How do I care for the embroidered 'RL' and stars?

The embroidered elements are durable. Standard care as outlined (washing inside out in cold water, low heat drying) will help maintain their appearance alongside the rest of the garment.

What are the measurements for a size Medium?

For a size medium, the garment is approximately 69 cm long (front and back), with a 109 cm chest, 45 cm shoulder width, and 64 cm sleeve length.

Troubleshooting

Shrinking after washing

Ensure you are using cold water and the low heat/hang dry method as recommended. Avoid high heat in washing or drying.

Fading of colors

Wash inside out in cold water with mild detergent. Avoid direct sunlight when drying for extended periods.

Pilling of fabric

Excessive friction can cause pilling. Avoid washing with abrasive materials. Gentle washing and careful handling can minimize this.

Stretched out of shape

Always lay flat to dry or hang dry. Avoid wringing or stretching the garment when wet. If it has stretched, reshaping while damp and drying flat may help.
