FAQs
What is Supima® cotton?
Supima® is a type of cotton grown in the USA, characterized by its extra-long staple fibers. This results in a fabric that is softer, more durable, and holds color better than conventional cotton.
How does this knitted shirt differ from a pique polo?
Pique polos have a textured, waffle-like weave, while this knitted shirt has a smoother, denser knit. The knitted version generally offers a more refined feel and appearance.
Is this shirt suitable for warm weather?
Yes, the breathable cotton makes it suitable for warm weather, though the knit might be slightly warmer than a very lightweight pique.
What is the recommended way to iron this shirt?
Iron on a low heat setting, ideally on the reverse side of the fabric, to protect the knit structure and the embroidered logo.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Refer to the size chart and consider the 'Regular Fit' description. The measurements provided should help you select the appropriate size based on your chest and waist measurements.
Can I wear this shirt for formal occasions?
It is best suited for smart casual or business casual settings rather than formal events. It bridges the gap between casual and dressed-up.
Troubleshooting
Shirt appears to have shrunk after washing
Avoid machine drying. If shrinkage has occurred, you may try gently stretching the fabric while damp or consult a professional dry cleaner for advice.
Snagging or pulling of the knit
Be mindful of sharp objects or rough surfaces. If a minor snag occurs, try to carefully tuck the pulled thread back into the knit from the reverse side. For larger pulls, professional repair might be necessary.
Embroidery losing its definition
Ensure the shirt is washed inside out and avoid excessive heat during drying or ironing, which can damage the thread.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
As a garment, the Fred Perry Knitted Shirt requires no setup. It is compatible with standard wardrobes. To maintain its premium quality and appearance, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash cold, inside out, with like colors. Use a mild detergent.
- Drying: Dry flat or hang to dry. Avoid tumble drying, as high heat can shrink or damage the knitted fabric.
