Troubleshooting
Shirt appears to have shrunk after washing.
Ensure you followed the care instructions precisely, particularly regarding water temperature and drying methods. Always air dry if possible. If shrinkage is significant, it may be difficult to rectify.
Color has faded significantly.
Wash the garment inside out in cold water with mild detergent. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying. Consider using a color-retaining detergent.
Stitching is coming undone.
For minor loose threads, carefully trim them with sharp scissors. For more significant seam issues, professional repair may be necessary.
The tipping on the collar/cuffs looks worn.
Ensure you are not over-washing or using harsh cleaning agents. Gentle washing and air drying can help maintain the appearance of the tipping.
