FAQs

What is the material of this shirt?

The shirt is crafted from 100% pure cotton, offering breathability and comfort.

How should I care for the pleated detail?

To maintain the pleats' structure, iron the shirt on a medium setting, preferably while slightly damp, or use a pressing cloth. Ironing from the inside can also help preserve the pleat definition.

Is this shirt suitable for professional wear?

Yes, the classic collar, structured silhouette, and refined finish make it very suitable for professional environments when paired with tailored pieces.

Can I wear this shirt in warmer weather?

As it is made of pure cotton, it offers good breathability, making it comfortable for wear in moderate to warm weather. However, the long sleeves provide coverage.

What other sizes or colors are available?

This specific product is for the Blue, Size 16 shirt. Please refer to the product listing for availability of other sizes and colors.

How does the regular fit affect the look?

The regular fit is designed to provide comfort without being too loose or too tight, ensuring a balanced and stylish silhouette that drapes well.

Troubleshooting

Shirt appears wrinkled after washing.

Ensure the shirt is ironed while slightly damp on a medium heat setting. Use the 'cotton' setting on your iron. For stubborn wrinkles, consider using a fabric steamer.

Pleats are losing their structure.

Carefully iron the pleats following the grain of the fabric. Ironing from the inside or using a pressing cloth can help maintain sharpness. Avoid excessive heat.

Fabric feels stiff after drying.

Avoid over-drying in the tumble dryer. Air drying is often preferable. If stiffness persists, a brief tumble dry with a damp cloth can help soften the cotton.
