FAQs

What does the regular fit mean for this polo?

The regular fit is designed to be comfortable and not overly tight, allowing for standard layering while maintaining a structured silhouette.

Can I tumble dry this polo?

No, tumble drying can lead to significant shrinkage and damage to the knit texture. Always air dry flat.

What material is the shirt made of?

This polo is constructed from premium cotton, chosen for its softness and breathability.

Is the branding subtle?

Yes, the signature Laurel Wreath is embroidered on the left chest, providing a refined and classic look.

How should I store this knit polo?

It is best stored folded to prevent the knit from stretching, rather than hanging it on a hanger.

Troubleshooting

The garment has lost its shape after washing

Avoid machine drying. Gently reshape the damp garment while laying it flat on a dry towel and allow it to air dry.

Small snags or loose threads appearing on the knit

Do not pull loose threads. Use a crochet hook or blunt needle to gently push the snag back through to the underside of the fabric.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated aesthetic suitable for both casual and semi-formal settings
  • High-quality knit fabric offers superior breathability compared to standard pique polos
  • Authentic design references historical tennis fashion

  • Limited to a specific aesthetic that may not suit minimalist preferences

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Fred Perry Cable Knitted Polo Shirt lasts for seasons to come, prioritize gentle maintenance. Because the item is constructed from a knit fabric, it is recommended to wash it on a delicate cycle in a mesh laundry bag or hand wash using cold water. Avoid harsh detergents and bleach. Always reshape the shirt while damp and dry it flat on a clean towel; hanging the garment while wet may cause the weight of the water to stretch the knit and lose its shape. Store folded in a cool, dry place to prevent dust accumulation and avoid hanging on sharp-edged hangers that could snag the knit structure.
