FAQs
How should I choose the right size for this sweatshirt?
This Lacoste Crew Neck Sweatshirt runs large. It is strongly advised to take one size smaller than your usual size to achieve the intended classic fit and comfort.
What are the main materials of this sweatshirt?
The main fabric is composed of 84% cotton and 16% polyester brushed fleece. The rib edge is 98% cotton and 2% elastane, providing comfort and flexibility.
Is this sweatshirt suitable for cold weather?
Yes, its brushed cotton fleece construction is designed to be soft and warm, making it an excellent essential for mild to cool temperatures. It also works well as a layering piece for colder conditions.
Can I machine wash this sweatshirt?
Yes, machine wash in cold water with similar colors on a gentle cycle. For best results and to preserve the fabric, it is recommended to air dry flat or tumble dry on a very low heat setting.
How durable is the embroidered crocodile logo?
The embroidered crocodile is designed to be durable. To maintain its integrity, avoid ironing directly on the embroidery and consider washing the sweatshirt inside out.
Does the sweatshirt maintain its shape after washing?
With proper care, especially by washing in cold water, drying on low heat or flat, and storing folded, the sweatshirt is designed to maintain its classic fit and shape over time due to its quality material blend.
Troubleshooting
Sweatshirt appears to have shrunk after washing
Ensure you are washing in cold water and tumble drying on a low heat setting, or preferably, air drying flat. High heat is a common cause of shrinkage for cotton blends.
Fabric feels less soft or has pilled over time
Pilling can be reduced by washing the garment inside out on a gentle cycle. For existing pills, use a fabric shaver or lint remover carefully. Using a gentle detergent can also help maintain softness.
Color seems to be fading
Always wash with similar colors in cold water and avoid direct prolonged sun exposure when drying. Turn the sweatshirt inside out before washing to protect the outer surface.
Embroidered crocodile looks damaged or loose
Avoid direct ironing on the embroidery. If washing, ensure the sweatshirt is inside out to protect the logo. Hand-stitching loose threads can prevent further damage.
Sweatshirt has stretched out of shape
Avoid hanging the sweatshirt, as this can cause stretching, especially at the shoulders. Store it folded. When drying, lay it flat to help it retain its original shape.

Cons
