FAQs
What size is this polo shirt for?
This specific polo shirt is designed for children aged 5-6 years old. Lacoste sizing can sometimes vary, so please refer to a detailed size chart for precise measurements if available.
Is this polo shirt suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, it is made from 100% supple elegant pique cotton, which is generally soft and breathable, making it suitable for most children's sensitive skin. Always wash before first wear.
Can I machine wash this polo shirt?
Yes, you can machine wash it. We recommend washing in cold water (30°C / 86°F) on a gentle cycle, turning the shirt inside out. Avoid using bleach.
Are the buttons durable?
The polo shirt features genuine mother of pearl buttons, which are beautiful but delicate. To protect them, wash the shirt inside out and avoid harsh impacts or high heat during drying.
Does the crocodile logo peel off?
The Lacoste crocodile logo is embroidered directly onto the fabric, not printed. This ensures its durability and prevents it from peeling or fading with proper care.
Can this polo shirt be worn for school uniforms?
Its classic black color and neat design make it a suitable option for many school uniform requirements, especially if a black polo shirt is specified. Always check your school's specific uniform guidelines.
What is pique cotton?
Pique is a weaving style characterized by raised parallel cords or fine ribbing effects in the fabric. It gives the material a textured appearance and makes it durable, breathable, and absorbent, ideal for polo shirts.
Troubleshooting
Shirt appears wrinkled after washing.
Ensure you remove the shirt promptly from the dryer. Iron on a low setting or lay flat to dry to minimize wrinkles. You can also hang it directly after washing to drip dry.
Buttons appear dull or chipped.
Mother of pearl buttons are delicate. Wash the shirt inside out on a gentle cycle or hand wash to protect them. Avoid harsh impacts or high heat during drying. If chipping occurs, consider having them replaced by a professional tailor.
Color seems to be fading.
Always wash black garments with similar colors in cold water. Use a detergent specifically designed for dark colours. Avoid direct prolonged sun exposure when drying.
Shirt feels tight or has shrunk.
This polo shirt is 100% cotton and high heat can cause shrinkage. Always wash in cold water and tumble dry on low heat or air dry. If significant shrinkage has occurred, unfortunately, it may be irreversible.
Embroidered logo looks damaged or loose.
Always turn the shirt inside out before washing to protect the embroidery. Avoid direct ironing on the logo. If threads become loose, carefully trim them with small scissors rather than pulling.
