The sweatshirt is made from a blend of 80% cotton and 20% wool, featuring a medium-weight 14-gauge knit.
How should I wash this sweatshirt?
It is recommended to machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Do not bleach or tumble dry. Lay flat to dry after reshaping.
What does the 'tonal embroidered crocodile logo' mean?

The sweatshirt is made from a medium-weight knit, making it suitable for mild to cool weather. For very cold conditions, it would be best as a layering piece.
Can I put this sweatshirt in a dryer?

What type of collar does this sweatshirt have?
The sweatshirt features a bomber collar.
How does the fit typically run?

Troubleshooting
Shrinking after washing
Ensure you are using a cold wash cycle and avoid tumble drying. Reshape and lay flat to dry.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. You can apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) to the zipper teeth to help it glide more smoothly. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Pilling on the fabric surface
This can occur with wool blends. Use a fabric comb or a gentle de-piller tool to carefully remove pills. Regular washing on a gentle cycle can also help minimize this.
Loss of shape
Proper drying is key. Ensure the garment is laid flat and reshaped while damp. Avoid hanging to dry, as this can stretch the material.
