FAQs

What kind of events is this overshirt suitable for?

This overshirt is designed for smart-casual occasions, making it perfect for casual gatherings, social events, weekend outings, or as a stylish everyday layer.

Can I wear this overshirt in colder weather?

While it serves as a great layering piece, it is not heavily insulated. For colder weather, it would be best worn over warmer base layers or under a heavier coat.

What is the benefit of the two-way zip?

The two-way zip allows for versatile styling and comfort. You can open it from the bottom for easier movement, ventilation, or to showcase an item worn underneath, or zip it fully for a more classic look.

How should I wash this overshirt?

Machine wash at 40 degrees Celsius. It's advisable to air dry flat to help maintain the garment's shape and quality, avoiding high heat tumble drying.

What materials is the overshirt made from?

The overshirt is made from a blend of 60% Recycled Polyester and 40% Recycled Polyamide, offering durability and a smooth finish.

Is the sizing true to fit?

Fred Perry garments generally follow standard adult male sizing. For the best fit, it's recommended to refer to a size guide if available, or try on to ensure comfort and preferred layering space.

How should I store this overshirt?

To prevent creasing and help maintain its shape, it's best to store the overshirt on a hanger in your wardrobe.

Troubleshooting

Zipper feels stiff or gets stuck

Gently rub a graphite pencil along the zipper teeth or apply a small amount of zipper lubricant. Avoid forcing the zip.

Fabric develops pilling (small balls of fiber)

Pilling can occur with synthetic blends due to friction. Use a fabric shaver or lint remover to carefully remove pills. Wash inside out on a gentle cycle to minimize friction during washing.

Garment appears to lose its shape after washing

Ensure you are washing at the recommended 40 degrees Celsius and avoiding high heat tumble drying. Air dry flat, gently reshaping the garment while wet, to help maintain its original form.

Colour appears dull or faded

Always wash with similar colours to prevent dye transfer. Ensure you are using a detergent suitable for coloured garments and avoiding bleach. Direct prolonged sunlight exposure during drying can also contribute to fading.

Care Instructions

To ensure your overshirt maintains its quality and appearance, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 40 degrees Celsius. Using a delicate cycle can help preserve the fabric.
  2. Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach, which can damage the recycled synthetic fibers.
  3. Drying: It is generally recommended to air dry flat to maintain the garment's shape. Avoid tumble drying on high heat, as this can lead to shrinking or damage to synthetic materials. If machine drying is necessary, use a low heat setting.
  4. Ironing: If ironing is needed, use a low temperature setting and consider ironing inside out or with a pressing cloth to protect the fabric's finish.
  5. Storage: Store on a hanger to prevent creasing and maintain its form.
