FAQs
Is the fabric itchy?

What does the slim fit mean for sizing?
The garment is designed to be close-fitting. If you prefer a slightly less form-fitting aesthetic, you may consider sizing up.
How long is the polo?
The item measures 60cm in length, providing a standard fit that tucks easily into bottoms.
Are the materials sustainable?

Can I machine wash this polo?
It is recommended to use a delicate or cold cycle to protect the fibers, but hand-washing is the safest method for longevity.
Troubleshooting
Garment losing its shape
Avoid hanging the item on thin wire hangers; fold it instead to maintain the structural integrity of the ribbed knit.
Visible lint or pilling
Use a gentle fabric shaver to remove surface lint, and ensure the garment is turned inside out during the washing process to minimize friction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the integrity of the fabric blend and the shape of the garment, always check the interior care label before laundering. Given the stretchy nature of the ribbing, it is recommended to wash on a cold, delicate cycle or hand-wash to prevent premature fiber breakdown. Avoid tumble drying, as high heat can compromise the elasticity of the ribbed fabric; instead, lay the item flat to dry in its natural shape. When storing, fold the item rather than hanging it for long periods to prevent shoulder stretching.
