What kind of zip closure does it have?

What is the 'crinkle-effect hand feel'?
This refers to the unique texture of the fabric, which has a soft, subtly crinkled appearance, adding to its distinctive style.
Troubleshooting
Fabric appears creased beyond the intended crinkle effect.
Ensure you are washing at the recommended 40 degrees Celsius and avoiding high heat during drying. If air drying, hang properly to allow gravity to smooth out unwanted creases. A gentle steam can also help.
Zipper feels stiff or is difficult to operate.
Gently apply a small amount of zipper lubricant (like zipper wax or a graphite pencil lead) to the teeth of the two-way zip. Operate the zipper slowly a few times to distribute the lubricant. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Laurel Wreath embroidery appears pulled or damaged.
Handle the garment with care, especially during washing. Wash inside out to protect embroidered details. If a loose thread appears, gently trim it with small scissors; do not pull it.
Overshirt seems less breathable than expected.
This overshirt is made from a polyester/polyamide blend, which offers different breathability properties than natural fibers like cotton. For increased airflow, utilize the two-way zip to open the bottom portion of the overshirt. Consider layering with lighter, breathable base layers underneath.

It is highly compatible with a range of smart-casual attire, including t-shirts, polo shirts, light knitwear, jeans, chinos, and tailored trousers. For care, this overshirt is designed for easy maintenance. Always refer to the care label for specific instructions, but generally: - Washing: Machine washable at 40 degrees Celsius. To maintain the color and fabric integrity, wash with similar colors and consider turning the garment inside out. - Drying: Air dry whenever possible to preserve the fabric's crinkle effect and prevent potential damage from high heat. Avoid tumble drying unless explicitly stated on the care label. - Ironing: Due to its crinkle effect, ironing may not be necessary or desired. If pressing is required, use a low heat setting and iron inside out to protect the fabric finish and embroidered logo. - Storage: Store on a hanger to maintain its shape and avoid excessive creasing.
