FAQs

What is 'crepe piqué' fabric?

Crepe piqué is a type of cotton fabric with a textured, slightly raised surface, similar to traditional piqué, but often with a finer texture and a subtle crispness from the crepe element, giving it a more modern feel.

What is the fit of this polo shirt?

The shirt is designed with a 'Regular fit', which means it offers a comfortable silhouette that is neither too tight nor too loose.

How should I determine my size?

Refer to standard men's sizing charts. The product information indicates this specific item is a UK size 40, which corresponds to a Men's Large (L).

Can this polo shirt be worn for formal occasions?

This polo shirt is best suited for smart-casual or casual occasions. While it has refined details like the zip and tipping, it's not typically considered formal wear.

What are the differences from a traditional button-up polo?

The main difference is the metal-zip fastening instead of buttons, offering a more contemporary aesthetic and easier wear. It also features crepe piqué fabric for a modern texture.

Is the Laurel Wreath embroidered or printed?

The signature Laurel Wreath emblem is embroidered on the left chest, providing a classic and durable branding detail.

What other colors are available?

While this guide focuses on the White variant, Fred Perry often offers this style in other colors such as Blue and Cream, subject to availability.

Troubleshooting

Shirt appears to have shrunk after washing.

Ensure you are following the 'Machine Wash Cold' and 'Tumble Dry Low' instructions. Avoid high heat during washing or drying.

Embroidery appears damaged.

Avoid ironing directly over the embroidered Laurel Wreath. If creasing occurs, iron on the reverse side on a low heat setting.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. A small amount of graphite from a pencil rubbed on the teeth can sometimes help lubrication.

Color fading noticed.

Wash with similar colors and use a mild detergent. Turn the garment inside out before washing to protect the outer color.
