FAQs
What is the primary material of this overshirt?
The overshirt is made from 100% recycled polyamide in a textured ripstop weave.
How should I determine my size?
The shirt is a regular fit. It is recommended to take your usual size. Refer to a size chart if available for specific measurements.
Can this overshirt be worn in wet weather?
While the ripstop fabric offers some resistance, it is not waterproof. It is best suited for light rain or as protection against wind, rather than heavy downpours.
What is the purpose of the dual zip fastening?
The dual zip allows for adjustable ventilation and styling. You can zip it from the bottom up, top down, or fully open it for versatile wear.
How do I care for the recycled polyamide fabric?
It's recommended to machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors and tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Avoid bleach and high heat ironing.
Does the overshirt have internal pockets?
The description mentions side entry pockets and snap flap chest pockets. Internal pockets are not specified.
What does the embroidered Laurel Wreath signify?
The embroidered Laurel Wreath is the iconic Fred Perry logo, signifying the brand's heritage and design.
Troubleshooting
Seam coming undone
Minor seam issues can often be repaired with a needle and thread. For significant damage, consult a tailor or consider the warranty policy.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Gently work the zipper up and down to smooth its movement.
Fabric has lost its texture or shape
Ensure washing and drying instructions were followed correctly. Avoid excessive heat during drying, as this can affect fabric texture and fit.
Embroidery appears damaged
Avoid direct ironing on the embroidered area. If snagged, attempt to gently smooth the threads. Do not pull on snagged threads.
