FAQs

What is the 'petit piqué' texture?

Petit piqué is a finely textured cotton fabric with a characteristic woven pattern, known for its breathability and subtle structure, which is a hallmark of Lacoste polo shirts.

How does the classic fit differ from a slim fit?

The classic fit offers a more relaxed silhouette through the body and sleeves, providing comfort and ease of movement. A slim fit would be more tailored and closer to the body.

Are the buttons made of real mother-of-pearl?

Yes, the L.12.12 Original Polo Shirt features genuine mother-of-pearl buttons, adding a touch of premium quality and natural variation.

Can I wear this polo for sports?

While the fabric is breathable, the L.12.12 is designed primarily for everyday wear and smart-casual occasions. For intense athletic activities, specialized sportswear may be more suitable.

How should I care for the embroidered crocodile logo?

Avoid ironing directly on the logo. Wash and dry the garment inside out to protect the embroidery from abrasion.

What other colors are available for the L.12.12 polo?

The L.12.12 polo is available in a wide range of colors. Please check the product listings for specific color availability.

Is this polo shirt suitable for formal events?

The L.12.12 is best suited for smart-casual occasions. For formal events, a dress shirt is typically more appropriate.

Troubleshooting

Pilling or fuzz on the fabric

Wash inside out on a gentle cycle and air dry. Avoid high heat. Using a fabric shaver can carefully remove pills.

Shrinkage after washing

Ensure the garment is washed according to care instructions, particularly using a cold or warm water setting and avoiding high heat in the dryer. Air drying is recommended.

Color fading

Wash inside out in cold water with similar colors. Use a detergent designed for colored fabrics and avoid direct sunlight when drying.

Collar losing its shape

Ensure the collar is straightened before drying. Avoid excessive heat during washing and drying cycles. Storing by hanging can help maintain collar shape.

  4. Storage: Hang or fold the polo shirt neatly to prevent creasing.
