FAQs

Is this Lacoste polo shirt true to size for a 2-3 year old?

Lacoste generally adheres to standard sizing. For the most accurate fit, we recommend checking the Lacoste brand's specific size chart, as children's sizes can vary. This particular shirt is tagged for children aged 2-3 years.

Can this polo shirt be worn for special occasions?

Absolutely! The classic design, premium cotton material, and elegant details like mother-of-pearl buttons make it suitable for a range of occasions, from family gatherings and birthday parties to more semi-formal events.

How do I prevent the white color from becoming yellow or stained?

To keep the white crisp, wash only with other white garments. Use a mild, non-chlorine detergent formulated for whites. Address any stains immediately, and follow the cold wash and low-heat drying instructions carefully. Avoid direct sunlight for extended drying.

Is the crocodile logo sewn on or printed?

The iconic Lacoste crocodile on this polo shirt is expertly embroidered, showcasing the brand's commitment to quality and classic detailing.

What type of buttons are used on the placket?

This polo shirt features genuine mother-of-pearl buttons, adding a touch of natural elegance and durability to the design.

Is the 100% cotton pique material suitable for warm weather?

Yes, 100% cotton pique is renowned for its breathable and comfortable qualities, making this shirt an excellent choice for warm weather conditions, ensuring your child stays cool and comfortable.

Troubleshooting

White fabric appears dingy or yellowed after washing.

Ensure you are washing with whites only. Use a detergent specifically designed for whites and avoid overloading the washing machine. Using a small amount of oxygen-based bleach (non-chlorine) with your detergent can also help brighten, but always check the care label first.

Shirt seems to have shrunk after washing.

Always wash in cold water and avoid high heat drying. Cotton is prone to shrinking with excessive heat. Air drying or tumble drying on a very low heat setting is recommended.

Embroidered crocodile logo has loose threads.

Do not pull loose threads. Carefully trim them with small scissors. Excessive friction during washing or drying can cause this; consider washing inside out and using a gentle cycle.

Mother-of-pearl buttons appear dull or scratched.

Mother-of-pearl is a natural material and can be delicate. Wash the shirt inside out to protect the buttons from friction. Avoid harsh chemicals that could dull their luster.

Care Instructions

Proper care is crucial to maintain the pristine white color, softness, and shape of your Lacoste polo shirt. Follow these guidelines to ensure its longevity:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C / 86°F) on a gentle cycle. Always wash with similar colors to prevent discoloration. Turning the shirt inside out can help protect the embroidered logo and buttons.
  2. Detergent: Use a mild, color-safe detergent. Avoid using bleach or harsh stain removers, as these can damage the cotton fibers and cause yellowing over time.
  3. Drying: Ideally, lay flat to dry to help maintain the shirt's original shape and prevent stretching or shrinking. If using a dryer, select a low heat setting and remove promptly. Avoid direct sunlight for prolonged periods, as it can cause fading or yellowing.
  4. Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low to medium heat setting. Avoid ironing directly over the embroidered Lacoste crocodile logo.
  5. Storage: Store the shirt folded neatly in a drawer or hung on a padded hanger to prevent creases and maintain its form. Ensure it is completely dry before storing.
