FAQs

What is the material composition of the Fred Perry Overshirt?

The overshirt is crafted from a blend of 60% Recycled Polyester and 40% Recycled Polyamide.

How should I wash this overshirt?

It is machine washable at 40 degrees Celsius. For best results, wash with similar colors and air-dry or tumble dry on a very low heat setting to maintain its soft texture and subtle crinkle effect.

What kind of fit does this overshirt have?

It features a classic fit, designed for a comfortable and timeless silhouette suitable for various body types.

Can this overshirt be worn in formal settings?

While versatile for smart-casual wear, it is primarily designed for casual gatherings and social events, not typically formal occasions.

Does the overshirt have multiple pockets?

Yes, it is equipped with two open side pockets and two popper-fastened chest pockets for practical storage.

What is the benefit of the two-way zip?

The two-way zip fastening offers versatile styling options, allowing you to adjust how open or closed the overshirt is for both comfort and aesthetic appeal, and for adjustable ventilation.

Is the material lightweight?

Yes, it is crafted from a lightweight blend of recycled polyester and polyamide, offering comfort without bulk.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels stiff or loses its subtle crinkle effect after washing.

Ensure you are washing at the recommended 40 degrees Celsius. Avoid overloading the washing machine and consider air-drying or tumble drying on a very low heat setting to help maintain the fabric's natural texture. Do not iron at high temperatures, as excessive heat can alter synthetic fibers.

Zipper feels stiff or snags during operation.

Regularly check the two-way zip for any trapped threads or fabric. Ensure the branded puller is used gently and avoid forcing it. If the issue persists and there's no visible obstruction, the zipper might need cleaning.

Embroidered Laurel Wreath appears damaged or snagged.

This usually indicates abrasive contact. To protect the embroidery, wash the overshirt inside out. Be mindful when wearing or storing the garment to avoid snagging it on sharp objects or rough surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal care and to preserve the unique qualities of your Fred Perry Overshirt, please follow these instructions:

  1. Washing: It is machine washable at 40 degrees Celsius. Always wash with similar colors to prevent dye transfer.
  2. Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach, which can damage the synthetic fibers and affect the fabric's texture.
  3. Drying: To preserve the soft texture and subtle crinkle effect, it's generally recommended to air dry the overshirt. If using a tumble dryer, select a very low heat setting to prevent excessive heat exposure, which could alter the fabric's properties or cause shrinkage.
  4. Ironing: If necessary, iron on a very low heat setting. Avoid high temperatures to protect the recycled polyester and polyamide blend.
  5. Storage: Store on a hanger to maintain its classic fit and avoid unnecessary creasing.
