FAQs

What material is this polo shirt made from?

How do I determine the correct size for my child?

This shirt is sized for children aged 7-8 years and features a regular fit. It is recommended to check the brand's specific size chart for accurate measurements if unsure.

Can this polo shirt be worn by girls?

While listed under 'Male' gender and designed with a regular fit, the classic polo style can be worn by any child who fits the size and appreciates the design.

How should I wash and care for the polo shirt?

Troubleshooting

Ensure you followed the washing instructions carefully, particularly regarding water temperature and drying method. Use cold water and air dry or tumble dry on low. If significant shrinkage occurred beyond expected levels, check the care label again.

Wash with similar colours using cold water. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach. For initial washes, consider washing separately.
