Care Instructions
Proper care is essential to maintain the quality, shape, and appearance of your cotton polo shirt. Always refer to the specific care label inside your garment for the most accurate instructions, but general guidelines for cotton include:
- Washing: Machine wash cold (typically around 30°C / 86°F) with similar colours. Use a gentle cycle to protect the fabric.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleaches.
- Drying: Tumble dry low or, preferably, lay flat to dry to prevent shrinking and maintain the shirt's original shape. High heat can damage cotton fibres.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low setting. Avoid ironing directly over any embroidered logos or embellishments.
- Bleaching: Do not bleach, as this can damage the fabric and cause colour fading.
