FAQs
What is Tactel® fabric?
Tactel® is a brand of polyamide (nylon) fiber known for its softness, breathability, light weight, and quick-drying properties. It's designed to keep you comfortable and dry during physical activity.
What does UPF 50 mean?
UPF 50 stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor 50. It means the fabric blocks at least 98% of the sun's harmful UV rays, offering excellent sun protection.
How does the waffle pique fabric improve comfort?
The textured waffle pique weave creates small air pockets that enhance breathability and allow for better air circulation, contributing to overall comfort.
Can this polo be worn for formal occasions?
While it has a classic polo design, its technical features and 'performance' designation make it best suited for active or smart-casual settings rather than formal events.
How should I care for the ribbed collar and cuffs?
The ribbed collar and cuffs are part of the garment's construction and should be cared for according to the general wash instructions: machine wash cold, do not bleach, do not tumble dry, and iron low.
Is this shirt suitable for very hot weather?
Yes, the quick-dry Tactel® fabric and breathable waffle pique weave make it well-suited for hot weather, as it helps manage moisture and heat.
Troubleshooting
Shirt feels less breathable than expected.
Ensure the shirt is clean, as dirt and residue can impede fabric performance. Check that you are not wearing non-breathable layers underneath.
Color fading after washing.
Always wash dark colours separately as per care instructions. Use cold water and avoid harsh detergents.
Stitching coming loose.
Inspect the garment for any loose threads. If minor, carefully trim the thread. For significant issues, contact customer support.
