FAQs

Is the fit true to size?

Yes, the Custom Fit is designed to be tailored but comfortable. If you prefer a loose fit, you may want to compare your measurements against a standard sizing guide.

Can I tumble dry this shirt?

Tumble drying is not recommended as it can shrink the natural linen fibers and damage the fabric structure.

What is the primary material?

This shirt is made from 100% linen, chosen for its exceptional breathability and lightweight feel.

How should I store this shirt?

Store on a wooden or padded hanger to help the fabric maintain its shape and prevent sharp creasing in the collar.

Does the color fade easily?

To preserve the blue and white checkered pattern, always turn the shirt inside out before washing and avoid direct sunlight when air drying.

Troubleshooting

Excessive wrinkling after washing

Avoid overcrowding the washing machine and remove the shirt promptly at the end of the cycle to hang dry.

Shirt feels tight after first wash

Linen can experience minor shrinkage. Always wash in cold water and avoid high-heat tumble drying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your shirt retains its fit and texture, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water to prevent color fading and excessive shrinking of the linen fibers.
  2. Drying: Air drying is highly recommended. Hang the shirt on a high-quality contoured hanger while damp to allow natural smoothing of wrinkles.
  3. Ironing: Use a steam setting while the shirt is slightly damp to effectively remove stubborn creases. Do not over-press.
  4. Compatibility: This shirt pairs exceptionally well with lightweight cotton trousers, chinos, or linen shorts for a coordinated summer look. It tucks neatly into tailored slacks for a more formal silhouette.
