FAQs

Is the fit true to size?

Yes, this garment follows a standard regular fit, which is designed to be comfortable without being oversized.

Can I tumble dry this sweatshirt?

While it can be tumble dried, air drying is highly recommended to preserve the shape of the ribbing and the quality of the fabric.

What is the primary material?

The sweatshirt is composed of an 87% cotton and 13% polyester blend.

Does the zip scratch the skin?

The metal zip is designed with a protective guard to ensure it does not cause irritation against the skin when fully zipped.

Will the embroidered logo fade?

Following the recommended care instructions, such as washing inside out in cold water, will keep the embroidery looking new for years.

Troubleshooting

Zip feels stiff or sticks

Apply a small amount of graphite from a pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth to ensure smooth movement.

Fabric looks slightly wrinkled after washing

Use a low-heat setting on your iron or a garment steamer to gently smooth out fibers, being careful not to apply direct heat to the embroidered logo.

Pros and Cons

  • High-quality, hard-wearing fabric blend
  • Sophisticated silver metal zip hardware
  • Ribbed cuffs and hem prevent stretching

  • Limited to specific sizing options based on availability
  • Requires careful laundering to maintain the embroidery

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your GANT Shield Half Zip in optimal condition, machine wash it on a cold setting with similar colors. Because the garment features an embroidered logo and metal hardware, it is recommended to wash the sweatshirt inside out to protect the embroidery and prevent the zip from snagging on other items. Avoid using heavy bleach or high-heat tumble drying, as this can degrade the cotton fibers and affect the fit of the ribbed cuffs and hem. Air drying is the preferred method to maintain the integrity of the garment's structure.
