Full details

FAQs

What does 'Custom Fit' mean for this shirt?

Custom Fit is a silhouette offered by Polo Ralph Lauren that is more fitted than their Classic Fit but less so than their Slim Fit. It is tailored through the waist for a more shaped appearance.

Is this shirt suitable for hot weather?

Yes, the shirt is made from 100% linen, which is a highly breathable and lightweight natural fiber, making it ideal for warm temperatures.

How do I wash and care for the linen shirt?

It is machine washable on a gentle cycle with cold water and like colors. Tumble dry on low heat or hang to dry. Iron on a medium setting while damp or use a steamer.

What occasions is this shirt best suited for?

This shirt is highly versatile. It can be worn for business casual settings, smart-casual events, or relaxed weekend outings, pairing well with both formal and casual attire.

Does the shirt have pockets?

Based on the description, this shirt does not mention any chest pockets, focusing instead on the embroidered pony detail.

What are the sleeve lengths for size M?

For size M, the sleeve length is measured as 87.5 cm from the center of the back of the neck. Sleeve length changes by 2.5 cm between sizes.

Can this shirt be worn tucked or untucked?

Yes, the shirttail hem is designed to look neat whether tucked into trousers or worn untucked for a more casual style.

Troubleshooting

Shirt wrinkles easily.

Linen is naturally prone to wrinkling. To minimize this, remove the shirt from the dryer promptly and hang or fold. Ironing while slightly damp with a medium-heat iron or using a steamer can effectively smooth out wrinkles.

Shirt appears too tight in the waist.

The Custom Fit is designed to be more tailored through the waist. If it feels too snug, consider trying the next size up or exploring the Classic Fit if available. Ensure you are referencing the size guide for accurate measurements.

Embroidery is damaged or faded.

Avoid harsh detergents or excessive rubbing on the embroidered area during washing. If damage has occurred, professional repair might be an option, though often the embroidery is a durable feature.

Shrinkage after washing.

While machine washable, linen can shrink. Use cold water and low heat for drying. Air drying is the safest method to prevent significant shrinkage. If slight shrinkage occurs, a gentle steam iron can help relax the fibers.

Pros and Cons

Cons

  • The Custom Fit may be too tailored for individuals preferring a relaxed fit.
  • Linen can wrinkle easily, requiring attention to ironing or steaming.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

This shirt requires no setup as it is a ready-to-wear garment. Its compatibility is high, pairing well with a wide range of bottoms, from jeans to tailored trousers, and various footwear options.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Machine washable on a gentle cycle with like colors. Use cold water.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang to dry for best results and to minimize shrinkage and wrinkling. Do not bleach.
  • Ironing: Iron on a medium setting while the garment is still damp, or use a steam iron on a low setting to remove wrinkles. Linen often benefits from a slightly dewy press.
  • Storage: Store folded in a cool, dry place. Avoid hanging for long periods to prevent stretching.
