FAQs

What material is this sweatshirt made from?

This Lyle and Scott Core Crew Neck Sweatshirt is crafted from 100% cotton, ensuring a soft, comfortable, and breathable feel.

What does '320 gsm loopback fabric' mean?

'GSM' stands for grams per square meter, indicating the fabric's weight and density. 320 gsm means it's a substantial, thick fabric. 'Loopback' refers to the interior weave, which has unbrushed loops, providing breathability and comfort without the fleecy feel of brushed fleece.

Is this sweatshirt suitable for all seasons?

The 320 gsm loopback fabric offers a good balance of warmth and breathability, making it ideal for cooler seasons like autumn and spring, or as a layering piece in winter. It might be too warm for hot summer days.

How do I ensure the sweatshirt doesn't shrink?

To prevent shrinkage, always wash in cold water on a gentle cycle. For drying, it is highly recommended to air dry by laying flat or hanging. If using a machine dryer, use the lowest heat setting and remove the garment as soon as it's dry.

Can this be worn for sports activities?

While comfortable and durable, this sweatshirt is primarily designed for casual wear and everyday activities. Its thickness might not provide the optimal range of motion or moisture-wicking properties needed for intense sports.

Is the embroidered logo durable?

Yes, the logo is embroidered, meaning it is stitched into the fabric. This method is generally very durable and less prone to fading, peeling, or cracking compared to printed logos, especially with proper care (avoiding direct ironing).

Troubleshooting

Sweatshirt appears to have shrunk after washing.

High heat during washing or drying is the most common cause of cotton shrinkage. Ensure you are washing in cold water and tumble drying on a low heat setting, or preferably, air drying.

Fabric feels stiff or rough after washing.

This can happen with cotton if too much detergent is used or if it's over-dried. Try using less detergent and considering adding a fabric softener in the rinse cycle. Air drying can also help maintain softness.

Color seems to be fading.

To preserve color, always wash the sweatshirt inside out with similar colors in cold water. Avoid direct strong sunlight for prolonged periods when drying, as UV rays can cause fading.

Embroidered logo looks distorted or damaged.

Avoid ironing directly over the embroidered logo. If you need to iron the area, turn the sweatshirt inside out and iron on a low heat setting, or place a thin cloth over the logo.

Care Instructions

Proper care is crucial to maintain the quality, fit, and appearance of your 100% cotton sweatshirt. Always refer to the care label inside the garment for the most precise instructions.

  1. Machine Wash: The sweatshirt is machine washable. It is generally recommended to wash on a gentle cycle with cold water to prevent shrinking and preserve color.
  2. Wash with Similar Colors: To avoid color transfer, always wash the sweatshirt with clothes of similar colors.
  3. Use Mild Detergent: Avoid harsh detergents or bleach, as these can damage the cotton fibers and fade the color.
  4. Drying: It is best to air dry the sweatshirt by laying it flat or hanging it to prevent shrinking and maintain its shape. If using a tumble dryer, select a low heat setting and remove promptly once dry.
  5. Ironing: If ironing is necessary, do so on a low heat setting and avoid ironing directly over the embroidered logo to prevent damage. Ironing inside out can also help protect the exterior.
