FAQs
What is '28-wale' corduroy?
A 'wale' refers to the number of ribs per inch. 28-wale corduroy means there are 28 distinct ribs per inch, indicating a very fine and smooth texture, often referred to as 'baby cord'.
Is this shirt suitable for all seasons?
It is best suited for transitional seasons like spring and autumn due to its moderate warmth. It can be layered in cooler weather but may be too warm for summer.
How does the slim fit differ from a regular fit?
A slim fit is tailored closer to the body with narrower sleeves and a more tapered waist compared to a regular fit, which is more relaxed and straight.
Can I wear this shirt for formal events?
The shirt is best for smart-casual or casual occasions. While versatile, its corduroy material and button-down collar make it less suitable for very formal events.
How should I store the shirt to maintain its appearance?
Hang the shirt on a padded or wooden hanger to maintain its shape and prevent creasing. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
What does the 'Gold F' embroidery signify?
The embroidered Gold F is a signature logo of Farah Vintage, representing the brand's heritage and quality.
Troubleshooting
Shirt appears too tight or restrictive
Ensure you have selected the correct size by consulting the size chart. The slim fit is intended to be tailored; consider sizing up if a more relaxed fit is desired.
Corduroy texture feels stiff after washing
Avoid high heat during washing and drying. Air drying and a low-heat iron can help restore softness. Consider using a fabric softener specifically designed for cotton garments during the wash if needed.
Color fading
Wash the shirt inside out in cold water with mild detergent. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying.
