FAQs
What material is the shirt made of?
The shirt is made from a wool-blend knitted fabric.
What does 'jacquard' mean in this context?
Jacquard refers to a weaving technique used to create intricate patterns directly into the fabric. This shirt features geometric and floral jacquard designs on the collar, cuffs, and hem.
Can I machine wash this shirt?
Yes, but it is recommended to use a gentle wool cycle with cold water and a mild detergent. Hand washing is often the safest option for preserving the fabric and its shape.
How should I dry the shirt?
Do not tumble dry. Lay the shirt flat on a towel or drying rack, reshaping it gently while damp, and allow it to air dry away from direct heat or sunlight.
Is this shirt suitable for warm weather?
While it has short sleeves, the wool-blend fabric can be warmer than cotton. It is best suited for mild to cool weather or indoor environments.
Where is this shirt manufactured?
This shirt is made in Italy, known for its high-quality textile production.
How should I store the shirt?
Store the shirt folded on a shelf or in a breathable garment bag to maintain its shape and prevent stretching.
Troubleshooting
Shirt appears to have shrunk after washing.
Wool blends can be sensitive to heat. Ensure you are using cold water and a gentle cycle. If shrinkage has occurred, try gently stretching the fabric back into shape while damp and laying flat to dry. Avoid future hot water washes.
Jacquard pattern looks creased or flattened.
Iron the garment on a cool setting, preferably on the reverse side. Use a pressing cloth to protect the delicate jacquard weave. Avoid direct high heat.
Pilling or fuzziness on the fabric.
Gentle wear and proper washing can minimize pilling. Use a fabric shaver or fine-tooth comb to carefully remove any small pills that may form. Avoid excessive friction.
