Full details
This Polo Ralph Lauren Shrunken Fit fleece sweatshirt is designed for women seeking a stylish, comfortable, and casual addition to their wardrobe.

FAQs
What does 'Shrunken Fit' mean for this sweatshirt?
'Shrunken Fit' means the sweatshirt is designed to be shorter and more fitted around the body than a traditional hoodie. The length is intended to hit around the hips.
What material is the sweatshirt made from?
The main body and hood lining are made from a blend of 83% cotton and 17% polyester, giving it a soft, used-look fleece feel.
How should I wash this sweatshirt?
The sweatshirt is either machine washable or dry cleanable. For machine washing, use a gentle cycle with cold water and similar colors. Air dry or tumble dry on low heat.
Does this sweatshirt come in other colors or sizes?
Yes, this style is available in various colors and sizes. Please check the product listing for available options. Other variants include the 'Pony Fleece Hoodie' in different colors and fits.
What does the 'mass balance system' refer to regarding cotton sourcing?
The mass balance system is a way of tracking and accounting for certified cotton used in the supply chain. It means the product may not contain Better Cotton directly, but supports the Better Cotton Initiative's mission through the sourcing of this cotton.
Is the embroidered horse logo durable?
The embroidery is designed for durability, but it's best to follow care instructions, such as washing inside out and avoiding high heat ironing, to maintain its condition.
Troubleshooting
Sweatshirt feels too tight
The 'Shrunken Fit' is designed to be closer to the body. Consider sizing up if a looser fit is preferred. Review the size chart for specific measurements.
Embroidery is damaged
Avoid direct high heat when ironing. If machine washing, consider turning the sweatshirt inside out to protect the embroidery.
Fabric pilling after washing
Wash inside out in cold water and air dry. Use a fabric shaver gently if pilling occurs.
