FAQs
What does 'fine-gauge' mean?
Fine-gauge refers to the density of the knitting needles used to create the fabric, resulting in a thinner, more lightweight, and smoother texture compared to chunky-knit sweaters.
Does this sweater run true to size?
The item is designed with a slim fit; if you prefer a less form-fitting look, some users choose to size up, but the garment generally follows standard sizing conventions.
Is this wool itchy?
The sweater is knit from worsted wool, which is generally smoother and softer than regular wool, designed to be comfortable against the skin.
Can I put this in the dryer?
No, we strongly advise against using a dryer as the heat will likely cause the wool fibers to felt and the garment to shrink.
How long is this sweater?
The sweater is designed to hit at the hip, providing a standard length that works well tucked in or worn over the waistband of jeans or skirts.
Troubleshooting
Garment seems slightly tight
The slim-fit cut is intentional; if it feels restrictive, ensure the piece is pulled down correctly at the hem, as wool has natural elasticity that settles after the first few minutes of wear.
Visible pilling after wear
Light pilling is common with fine-gauge wool. Use a fabric shaver or a sweater stone gently on the affected area to restore the smooth surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Polo Ralph Lauren turtleneck, proper maintenance is essential. Given the worsted wool material, avoid machine washing on hot cycles or high-heat tumble drying, as these can cause the garment to shrink or warp. We recommend hand washing in cool water with a gentle wool-safe detergent, followed by laying the sweater flat on a clean towel to air dry. To maintain its shape, avoid hanging the sweater on a coat hanger while wet, as this will stretch the shoulders and fabric. When storing, fold the item carefully in a cool, dry drawer away from direct sunlight to prevent fiber degradation.
