FAQs

What is the difference between a custom fit and a standard fit?

The custom fit is a tailored, slimmer silhouette that is narrower through the chest and waist compared to a classic or standard fit.

Is the material prone to pilling?

Made from premium cotton mesh, it is resistant to pilling when cared for according to the garment's instructions.

Does this shirt shrink in the wash?

Because it is 100% cotton, slight shrinkage is possible if exposed to high heat. Always wash in cold water and tumble dry low or hang dry.

What is a tennis tail?

A tennis tail is a longer back hem that helps keep the shirt tucked securely into your pants, common in high-quality polo shirt design.

Can this shirt be machine washed?

Yes, this shirt is machine washable. We recommend turning it inside out to protect the embroidered logo.

Troubleshooting

The collar has lost its structure after washing

Iron the collar on a medium setting using a small amount of steam to restore its flat, crisp shape.

The shirt feels too tight across the chest

The custom fit is designed to be slim. If movement is restricted, ensure you are wearing the correct size; otherwise, dry-cleaning can sometimes prevent the minor shrinkage associated with home washing.

Fabric appears wrinkled after laundry

Remove the shirt from the washing machine immediately after the cycle ends and hang it on a shaped hanger to dry, which helps reduce wrinkling.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This garment does not require any complex setup. To ensure the longevity of your Polo Ralph Lauren shirt, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash in cold water with similar colors to prevent fading.
  2. Drying: Air dry or tumble dry on a low heat setting. Avoid high heat as it can lead to cotton shrinkage.
  3. Ironing: If necessary, use a medium heat iron to remove wrinkles, preferably while the fabric is slightly damp.
  4. Storage: Keep on a hanger to prevent creasing and maintain the integrity of the collar and cuffs.
  5. Compatibility: The shirt is designed for a slim/custom fit; if you prefer a looser feel, consider sizing up.
