FAQs

What does 'crinkle-effect hand feel' mean?

It refers to the fabric's texture, which is intentionally designed to have a slightly wrinkled or creased appearance and feel, giving it a unique visual and tactile quality.

Is this overshirt waterproof?

No, this overshirt is made from a nylon and polyester blend and is designed for style and light weather protection, not full waterproofing.

Can I wear this in winter?

This is a lightweight overshirt, best suited for spring, autumn, or cool summer evenings. For winter, it would need to be layered significantly with warmer garments underneath.

What is the fit like?

The overshirt has a classic or regular fit, meaning it is neither too tight nor too loose, providing a comfortable silhouette for layering.

How do I wash the overshirt to preserve the crinkle effect?

It's recommended to wash cold, inside out, and consider air drying or using a low tumble dry setting. Avoid harsh drying methods that could flatten the intended texture.

What does the embroidered Laurel Wreath signify?

The Laurel Wreath is the signature logo of Fred Perry, symbolizing the brand's heritage and connection to sport and subculture.

Are the materials sustainable?

Yes, the overshirt is made from a recycled nylon and polyester blend, contributing to a more sustainable use of resources.

Troubleshooting

Fabric appears creased beyond the intended crinkle effect.

Ensure the garment is dried flat or on a low tumble setting. Iron on a low heat setting if necessary, avoiding the embroidered logo.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently pull the fabric away. You can also try applying a small amount of graphite (pencil lead) or wax along the zipper teeth.

Embroidered logo is fraying.

Avoid excessive friction or rough handling of the logo area. If minor fraying occurs, carefully trim with small scissors. Ensure washing and drying methods do not put undue stress on the embroidery.
