Product Information
Full details
The Berghaus Ivyhill Tech Polo is an ideal choice for active men who need a reliable, high-performance shirt that transitions seamlessly from outdoor activities to casual daily wear. Its primary benefit is the combination of moisture-wicking technology and a lightweight pique fabric that keeps you cool and dry during physical exertion; however, users should note that the regular fit may feel looser than performance-oriented slim-cut athletic gear.

FAQs
Is this shirt suitable for technical hiking?
Yes, its moisture-wicking properties and raglan sleeves make it well-suited for hiking and outdoor movement.
How should I wash the Ivyhill Polo?
Machine wash cold with mild detergent. Do not use fabric softeners, and hang dry when possible.
Does the polo have a slim or regular fit?
It features a regular fit, offering a classic, slightly more relaxed silhouette.
Will the material irritate my skin during long hikes?
The garment uses merrow stitching specifically to create smooth, low-profile seams that reduce the risk of chafing.
Can this be worn in formal settings?
The classic collar and button placket give it a smart appearance, making it suitable for casual-professional or social settings.
Does it offer sun protection?
While the material is functional, it is not explicitly rated for UPF protection. Standard sun safety measures are advised.
Troubleshooting
Fabric feels damp after long periods of heavy exertion
Ensure the shirt is being worn as a base or mid-layer with breathable outer layers; moisture wicking requires airflow to function effectively.
Slight fabric pilling after heavy use
Avoid washing with abrasive items like denim or items with Velcro. Wash inside out to protect the outer surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This polo is designed for straightforward care. To maintain the integrity of the moisture-wicking performance and the smooth feel of the merrow stitching, machine wash in cold water using a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can coat the fibers and degrade the moisture-wicking efficiency over time. Hang drying is recommended to preserve the shape and fabric quality; if tumble drying, use a low-heat setting. The shirt is compatible with most outdoor layering systems, including lightweight windbreakers or fleece jackets, due to its low-profile collar and slim-fitting sleeves.
