FAQs
What makes Tactel® fabric special?
Tactel® fabric is known for being lightweight, durable, quick-drying, and exceptionally soft – often described as twice as soft as cotton. It's designed to keep you comfortable by wicking away moisture.
How effective is the UPF 50 sun protection?
UPF 50 offers excellent protection, blocking approximately 98% of the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays. This significantly reduces your exposure to UV radiation during outdoor activities.
Is this polo shirt suitable for very hot weather?
Yes, the quick-dry and moisture-wicking properties of the Tactel® fabric make it very suitable for hot weather, helping to keep you cool and dry.
Can I machine wash and dry this polo?
Yes, you can machine wash it in cold water with dark colors separately and tumble dry on low heat. However, hang drying is often recommended for longevity.
What does 'bluesign® certified manufacturing' mean?
It means the fabric was produced in a way that minimizes environmental impact, ensuring responsible use of resources and safe working conditions throughout the supply chain.
How does the fit run for this polo?
This is a regular fit polo. For the best fit, it is recommended to consult the Helly Hansen size chart specific to men's apparel.
Troubleshooting
Shirt feels slightly stiff after washing.
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners, which can sometimes affect the performance of technical fabrics. Tumble dry on low or hang dry.
Color seems to fade after multiple washes.
Always wash dark colors separately, even if the care label doesn't explicitly state it for this garment. Washing inside out can also help preserve color.
Shirt does not feel as cool as expected.
Ensure the fabric is not overly saturated with sweat or water, as the quick-dry feature works best when moisture can evaporate. Check that the garment fits properly; a too-tight fit can hinder airflow.
