Product Information
Full details
This Trutex School Polo Shirt in White, size L, is designed for children, offering a practical and durable option for school or everyday wear. Its key benefit is its longevity, with excellent color retention and minimal shrinkage providing great value. A potential caveat is that while made from a cotton-rich fabric for comfort, it's primarily a uniform item, and users should verify specific school uniform requirements. Key features include its cotton-rich material, flat knit collar, front button fastening, and a low-pill fabric construction.

FAQs
What material is this polo shirt made from?
The polo shirt is crafted from a cotton-rich fabric, designed to balance comfort and durability for everyday wear.
Is this shirt suitable for all schools?
Trutex is a reputable school uniform brand. However, school uniform requirements can vary. It's always best to check your child's specific school uniform policy for color and style compliance.
How do I wash and dry the polo shirt?
The shirt is machine washable and can be tumble dried on a low heat setting. Always refer to the garment's care label for the most accurate instructions.
Will the shirt shrink after washing?
The shirt is designed with minimal shrinkage in mind, meaning it should retain its size after washing when care instructions are followed.
How can I maintain the color of the shirt?
The fabric offers excellent color retention. To help preserve the color, wash inside out with similar colors and avoid bleach.
What does 'low-pill fabric' mean?
Low-pill fabric is treated or constructed to minimize the formation of small fibers (pills) on the surface of the material, helping the garment look newer for longer.
What sizes are available?
This specific listing is for size L. The Trutex School Polo Shirt is available in a range of sizes for children. Please check the product listing or variations for other available sizes.
Troubleshooting
Shirt shrinking significantly after washing
Ensure you are washing and tumble drying according to the care label instructions. Avoid high heat settings, as this can exacerbate shrinkage. Air drying is often the gentlest method.
Color fading quickly
Wash the garment with similar colors and turn it inside out before washing. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach, which can strip color. Ensure the tumble dryer is on a low heat setting.
Pilling developing on the fabric surface
The 'low-pill' fabric is designed to resist this, but excessive friction can still cause pilling. Avoid washing with abrasive items like denim or towels with rough textures. Gently brush off any minor pills that may form.
Button coming loose or falling off
Carefully stitch the button back on using a strong thread. If the buttonhole is damaged, it may require minor repair by a tailor or seamstress.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This is a ready-to-wear garment. Ensure it is washed before the first use to remove any residual manufacturing elements and to ensure the best fit.
Compatibility: This polo shirt is designed as a general schoolwear item. While Trutex is a trusted school uniform brand, always confirm specific uniform requirements with your child's school regarding color, style, and logo placement before purchasing.
Care Instructions:
- Washing: Machine washable. Wash at a moderate temperature (refer to the care label for exact temperature).
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting. Alternatively, air dry to further extend garment life.
- Ironing: If required, iron on a low setting. Avoid ironing directly on any printed logos or embellishments if present on specific school variations.
- Bleaching: Do not bleach. This can damage the fabric and affect color retention.
