FAQs
What does 'double-knit' mean for this hoodie?
Double-knit refers to a type of fabric construction where two layers of fabric are knitted together, resulting in a thicker, more stable, and often warmer material. For this hoodie, it means a comfortable and durable blend of 66% cotton and 34% polyester.
How should I wash my Polo Ralph Lauren hoodie?
Always refer to the specific care instructions on the product label inside your hoodie. Generally, it's recommended to machine wash cold with similar colors and tumble dry on low heat or air dry to maintain its quality.
Is this hoodie suitable for all seasons?
Due to its double-knit fabric, it's best suited for cooler weather as a primary layer or as a mid-layer during colder seasons. It may be too warm for hot summer days, but can be comfortable in spring and autumn.
What type of fit does this hoodie have?
This hoodie features a 'Regular' apparel fit type, designed for a comfortable and classic silhouette that isn't too tight or too loose.
What materials is the hoodie made from?

Troubleshooting
Hoodie feels stiff after washing
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and consider adding a fabric softener suitable for cotton/polyester blends during the rinse cycle. Verify that the washing machine isn't overloaded.
Fabric appears to be pilling
Pilling can occur due to friction. Wash the hoodie inside out to reduce abrasion. If pilling occurs, use a fabric shaver or a de-fuzzer to gently remove the pills.
Zipper is sticking or difficult to move
Rub a graphite pencil or a dry bar of soap along the zipper teeth. This can lubricate the zipper and help it move more smoothly. Ensure the fabric isn't caught in the zipper mechanism.
Shrinkage after washing
Always follow the care label precisely, especially regarding water temperature and drying settings. Washing in hot water or drying on high heat can cause cotton to shrink. Air drying or tumble drying on low is generally recommended.
Color fading over time
Wash the hoodie with similar colors in cold water and turn it inside out before washing to protect the outer surface. Minimize exposure to direct sunlight when drying.

General Care Guidelines (Always cross-reference with product label):
- Washing: Typically, machine wash cold with similar colors. Avoid hot water to prevent shrinking or damage to the fabric blend.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent.
- Bleach: Do not use bleach.
- Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or lay flat to air dry to help preserve the fabric's integrity and prevent shrinkage. High heat can damage the polyester fibers and cause cotton to shrink.

- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, either folded or hung to maintain its shape.
