FAQs

What is 'macro-piqué' cotton?

Macro-piqué cotton refers to a type of piqué knit fabric that uses thicker yarn or a more pronounced weave, resulting in a heavier texture and a more substantial feel compared to standard piqué.

How do I know if the regular fit is right for me?

A regular fit is designed to be neither too tight nor too loose, offering a comfortable standard silhouette. If you prefer a very close-fitting garment, consider sizing down. If you prefer a looser, more relaxed feel, this fit should be suitable, or you might consider sizing up.

Can I wear this t-shirt for sports?

While inspired by sportswear, the premium cotton and textured finish make this t-shirt more suited for casual and smart-casual wear rather than intense athletic activity. For sports, a performance-oriented fabric would be more appropriate.

How should I store the t-shirt?

It's best to store the t-shirt folded in a drawer or on a shelf. Hanging it for extended periods might cause the shoulders to stretch due to the fabric's weight.

What does the Laurel Wreath embroidery signify?

The Laurel Wreath is the iconic symbol of Fred Perry, representing the brand's heritage rooted in tennis and subcultures.

Is the tipping on the collar and cuffs embroidered?

No, the tipping is typically a contrasting colored thread incorporated into the knit of the collar and cuffs, not an embroidery.

Troubleshooting

T-shirt appears to have shrunk after washing.

Ensure you are washing in cold water and avoiding high heat during drying. Air drying is the safest method to prevent shrinkage.

Embroidery or tipping is damaged.

Iron the garment inside out on a low heat setting. Avoid direct ironing on embroidered areas or tipping.

Fabric feels rough after a few washes.

Use a mild detergent and consider a fabric softener designed for natural fibers. Always wash inside out to protect the fabric's surface.

Color has faded significantly.

Wash with similar colors using cold water and a color-safe detergent. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight during drying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This product requires no setup as it is ready to wear. Its compatibility is with standard adult male sizing. Care instructions are crucial for maintaining the premium feel and appearance of the piqué cotton:

  • Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C) with similar colors. Turn the garment inside out before washing.
  • Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid bleach or harsh chemicals.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or, preferably, air dry flat to prevent shrinkage and maintain shape.
  • Ironing: Iron on a low heat setting if necessary. It is recommended to iron inside out to protect the embroidered logo and tipping.
  • Dry Cleaning: Not recommended, as it can degrade the fabric fibers over time.
