FAQs

What does 'Supima Cotton' mean?

Supima is a superior type of cotton grown in the USA, known for its extra-long staple fibers, which result in a softer, stronger, and more durable fabric compared to regular cotton.

How does the 'Slim Fit' differ from a regular fit?

A slim fit is designed to be more tailored and closer to the body than a regular fit. It has narrower sleeves and a tapered silhouette through the torso, offering a more modern appearance.

Is this polo shirt suitable for formal occasions?

This polo shirt is best suited for smart-casual or casual occasions. While it offers a polished look, it is not considered formal wear.

How resistant is the fabric to wrinkles?

The cotton blend offers some natural resistance to wrinkles, and the shape retention treatment helps minimize creasing. However, some minor wrinkling may occur, especially if left in the dryer for too long. It is best to hang or iron as needed.

What does the embroidered logo signify?

The embroidered signature fleece logo on the left chest is a classic branding element from Brooks Brothers, indicating the brand and its heritage.

Can I wear this polo shirt in hot weather?

Yes, the Supima cotton and spandex blend offers good breathability and stretch, making it comfortable for wear in warmer temperatures.

Troubleshooting

Shirt appears to have shrunk after washing.

Ensure you are washing in cold water and using a low heat setting for drying, or preferably hang drying. High heat is the primary cause of shrinkage in cotton blends.

Color seems to be fading.

Check that you are washing with like colors and using a mild detergent without bleach. Turn the garment inside out before washing to further protect the color.

Polo collar is not holding its shape.

Ensure the shirt is properly hung to dry after washing. If needed, a light press with a cool iron can help restore the collar's crispness.

Fabric feels less soft than before.

Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can sometimes coat cotton fibers and reduce breathability and softness over time. Re-wash with a mild detergent without softener.
