FAQs
What makes Supima cotton different from regular cotton?
Supima cotton is a superior type of cotton characterized by its extra-long staple fibers. This results in a fabric that is softer, stronger, more resistant to pilling, and retains color better than standard cotton.
How should I wash this knitted polo?
It is recommended to machine wash inside out on a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water (30°C / 86°F) and a mild detergent. Avoid using bleach or harsh chemicals.
Can I put this polo in the dryer?
No, the polo should not be tumble dried. Lay it flat to dry to maintain its shape and prevent shrinkage. Avoid drying in direct sunlight.
Is this polo suitable for formal occasions?
The Fred Perry Knitted Polo is best suited for smart-casual occasions. Its refined knit and classic design make it a step up from a standard t-shirt but it is not typically considered formal wear.
How does the fit compare to other polos?
This polo features a classic Fred Perry silhouette, which is designed to be a regular, comfortable fit. It offers a streamlined look without being overly tight or loose.
What other colors and sizes are available?
The Fred Perry Knitted Polo is available in various colors and sizes. Please check the product listings for specific availability, as options can vary.
Troubleshooting
Pilling on the fabric surface
Gentle washing and avoiding abrasion can minimize pilling. Use a fabric shaver carefully if pilling occurs.
Shrinkage after washing
Ensure you are washing in cold water and avoiding the tumble dryer. Reshape the garment while damp.
Loss of shape
Avoid hanging the polo for storage. Lay flat to dry and fold for storage to maintain its original silhouette.
Buttons feel loose
Gently reinforce buttons with a needle and thread if they become loose.
