FAQs
What material is the sweater made from?
The sweater is made from ribbed cotton interlock, providing a soft, comfortable, and durable feel.
What type of fit does this sweater have?
It features a classic fit, designed for natural lightness and a comfortable, relaxed silhouette.
How should I wash this sweater?
For best results and to maintain its quality, machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Lay flat to dry.
Can I wear this sweater in warmer weather?
Due to its cotton material and the high neck with zip, it's most suitable for cooler temperatures or as a light layering piece in transitional weather. It might be too warm for hot climates.
Is the crocodile logo embroidered?
Yes, the iconic Lacoste crocodile logo is precisely embroidered on the chest, signifying authenticity and quality.
How does the zip function?
The high neck features a zip closure, allowing you to adjust the neckline for either more warmth and a snappier look or partially unzipped for a more casual and comfortable feel.
What is 'cotton interlock'?
Cotton interlock is a type of knit fabric known for its smooth, dense, and soft texture, which is created by interlocking two single knits. It offers good stability and warmth.
Troubleshooting
Sweater has shrunk or misshapen after washing
This often occurs due to incorrect washing or drying temperatures. Always machine wash cold on a gentle cycle and lay flat to air dry. Avoid high heat from tumble dryers. If misshapen, gently reshape while damp and lay flat.
Fabric is pilling (small balls of fiber on surface)
Pilling is common with cotton knitwear, especially in areas of friction. Use a fabric shaver or a de-fuzzing comb to gently remove pills. To reduce future pilling, wash inside out on a gentle cycle and avoid harsh friction during wear.
Zipper feels stiff or is sticking
Ensure the zipper teeth are clean and free of lint or debris. You can try rubbing a graphite pencil tip or a small amount of zipper lubricant along the teeth to help it move smoothly. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Embroidered crocodile appears loose or damaged
Handle with care, especially during washing. If a thread comes loose, avoid pulling it. For minor issues, a professional tailor might be able to secure it. If significantly damaged, contact Lacoste customer service for advice.
