FAQs

Is this shirt 100% cotton?

Yes, it is constructed from premium cotton to ensure breathability and softness.

How does the 'Slim' fit differ from a regular fit?

The Slim fit is designed to be more form-fitting through the chest and waist, providing a more modern, tailored silhouette compared to the looser Regular fit.

Can I tumble dry this polo?

It is recommended to air dry this item to prevent shrinking and to protect the integrity of the cotton fabric.

What kind of logo does it have?

It features the signature embroidered pony logo on the left chest.

Is this shirt suitable for business casual attire?

Yes, its clean-cut design and quality fabric make it a versatile staple for most business casual dress codes.

Does the color fade after washing?

If washed inside out in cold water with mild detergent, the fabric retains its color well over time.

Troubleshooting

Shirt feels too tight across the shoulders

Verify the size label; this specific model features a 'Slim' fit which is cut closer to the body than 'Classic' or 'Regular' fit versions.

Collar losing its crispness

Ensure you are not using bleach, which degrades cotton fibers, and always air dry the shirt flat or on a hanger to keep the structure intact.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality, breathable cotton material
  • Timeless design suitable for multiple occasions
  • Maintains shape well due to ribbed collar and cuffs
  • Recognizable and iconic aesthetic

Cons

  • Slim fit may run small for those preferring a looser style
  • Requires careful laundering to maintain fabric integrity
  • Limited to specific casual and smart-casual style palettes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your polo remains in excellent condition, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle to prevent shrinking and color fading.
  2. Drying: Air dry whenever possible; avoid high-heat tumble drying as it can compromise the elasticity of the ribbed cuffs and collar.
  3. Ironing: Use a medium-heat iron. If necessary, iron the collar inside out to keep the edges sharp.
  4. Storage: Hang the shirt on a contoured hanger to preserve the shoulder shape rather than folding it for long periods to avoid creases.
