FAQs

What is the material of this polo shirt?

This polo shirt is made from 100% cotton, featuring a pointelle-textured fabric.

What does 'pointelle-textured fabric' mean?

Pointelle is a type of knitting that creates openwork patterns, resulting in a textured, somewhat lacy appearance in the fabric. It adds visual interest and breathability.

Are the buttons real mother-of-pearl?

Yes, the description specifies 'genuine mother-of-pearl buttons'.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the Polo Ralph Lauren sizing chart for men, which provides measurements for chest, waist, and shoulder to help you find the best fit. This shirt is designed for an adult male.

Can this polo shirt be worn for formal occasions?

This polo shirt is designed for casual and smart-casual wear. It is not suitable for formal occasions.

What other colours are available?

While this guide focuses on the brown variant, Polo Ralph Lauren offers this iconic polo shirt in a wide range of colours and cuts. Please check the brand's collection for other available options.

How should I care for the mother-of-pearl buttons?

Avoid harsh chemicals and high heat when washing and ironing. It's best to iron on a low setting and avoid direct contact with the buttons.

Troubleshooting

Shirt has shrunk after washing

Avoid high heat in the washing machine and dryer. Opt for cold water washes and air drying or a very low heat tumble dry setting.

Pointelle texture appears uneven or stretched

Ensure the shirt is laid flat to dry, or hung without stretching. Avoid vigorous wringing during the wash cycle.

Mother-of-pearl buttons are damaged

Handle buttons with care during washing and ironing. If a button is damaged, it may require professional repair or replacement by a tailor.

Colour fading

Wash with like colours in cold water and consider using a detergent designed for colours. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying.
