Polo shirt appears to have shrunk after washing.
Ensure you are washing in cold water and avoiding high heat drying. Hang drying is recommended for 100% cotton items to minimize shrinkage.
Colors seem to be fading.
Wash the garment inside out in cold water with mild detergent. Avoid direct sunlight when drying and consider using a color-safe detergent.
Stitching is coming undone.
Carefully trim any loose threads with scissors. If the seam is significantly compromised, consult a tailor for repair.

Reshape the collar while the garment is damp and allow it to air dry flat. Avoid excessive heat during drying.
