FAQs
What makes the fabric 'anti-pick'?
The fabric is woven in a way that prevents yarns from snagging and pulling, which commonly happens with rough surfaces or during athletic movements. This helps maintain the garment's appearance.
How does the 4-way stretch benefit me?
The 4-way stretch allows the fabric to expand and contract in all directions, providing maximum freedom of movement and comfort without restriction, essential for sports and active lifestyles.
Is UPF 40 enough protection for a full day in the sun?
UPF 40 blocks approximately 97.5% of the sun's harmful UV rays. For extended direct sun exposure, reapplying sunscreen to exposed skin is still recommended.
Can this polo be worn for business casual events?
Yes, the updated placket with low-profile buttons and the flat knit ribbed collar give it a modern, clean look that can be suitable for many business casual settings, especially those with a more relaxed dress code.
What is the difference between this and other Under Armour polos?
The Matchplay Polo is specifically engineered with advanced fabric technology for enhanced performance, breathability, stretch, and sun protection. It features an updated, more modern design compared to older or more basic models.
How should I care for the shirt to maintain its features?
Machine wash cold with like colors, avoid chlorine bleach, tumble dry low, and do not iron or use fabric softeners. These steps help preserve the moisture-wicking and stretch properties.
What sizes are available?
This particular listing is for size Large (L). However, the Matchplay series is available in a range of sizes, typically from XS to XXL, depending on the color and retailer.
Troubleshooting
Shirt feels too warm
Ensure the shirt is not layered too heavily underneath. The fabric is designed for breathability; excessive layering can trap heat.
Fabric not drying as quickly as expected
Check care label for proper washing. Fabric softeners or dryer sheets can build up and reduce moisture-wicking efficiency. Re-wash with a clean cycle using a small amount of detergent and no fabric softener.
Snag or pull in fabric
While the fabric is anti-pick, sharp objects can still cause damage. Minor snags may not be immediately noticeable due to the fabric texture. For significant damage, consider replacing the garment.
Collar losing shape
Ensure proper drying. Avoid over-drying in the machine. Reshape the collar while damp and allow it to air dry if possible.
