FAQs
What is the primary material composition of this hoodie?
This hoodie is made from a blend of 66% Cotton and 34% Polyester, offering a balance of comfort and durability.
What kind of fit does this hoodie have?
It features a 'Regular fit,' designed to provide a comfortable and classic silhouette that is not too tight or too loose.
Can I machine wash this hoodie?
Yes, you can machine wash it. Always use cold water and tumble dry on a low setting to maintain its quality.
Is this hoodie suitable for very cold weather?
While comfortable and warm, it's best suited for cooler days or as a layering piece under heavier outerwear in very cold conditions rather than a primary cold-weather jacket.
What is the specific size of this hoodie variant?
This particular hoodie is available in size 'XS' (Extra Small).
How can I prevent the white color from becoming dull or gray?
To keep the white vibrant, always wash with like colors in cold water using a detergent formulated for whites. Avoid washing with dark or colored items that might bleed dye.
Troubleshooting
Fabric appears dull or yellowed after washing.
Ensure you are washing with cold water and a detergent specifically designed for whites. Avoid overloading the washing machine, and wash separately from colored items. Consider using a non-chlorine bleach specifically for whites if approved for the fabric type.
Zipper feels stiff or gets stuck.
Rub a graphite pencil lead along the teeth of the zipper, then gently work the zipper up and down a few times. This can lubricate the mechanism. Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper path.
Hoodie feels like it's losing its shape or stretching out.
Strictly follow the 'machine wash cold, tumble dry low' instructions. Avoid hanging the hoodie on a hanger for long periods, especially if wet, as this can cause stretching. Fold it neatly for storage.
Small fabric pills (bobbles) appear on the surface.
Fabric pilling can occur with wear and washing. Use a fabric shaver or a de-pilling comb to gently remove them. Washing the garment inside out can also help reduce pilling.

Care Instructions:
To ensure your Polo Ralph Lauren Zip-through Hoodie maintains its quality and appearance, follow these care guidelines:
- Machine Wash Cold: Always wash in cold water to prevent shrinking and protect the fabric's integrity.
- Wash with Like Colors: To avoid color transfer and keep the white bright, wash with other white or light-colored garments.
- Gentle Cycle: Use a gentle cycle to minimize wear and tear on the fabric.
- Tumble Dry Low: Dry on a low heat setting. High heat can cause shrinkage and damage the cotton-polyester blend. Remove promptly to avoid wrinkles.
- Do Not Bleach: Bleach can damage the fabric and cause discoloration.
- Iron Low (If Needed): If ironing is necessary, use a low temperature setting and iron inside out or with a cloth over the garment to protect the fabric.
- Store Properly: Fold neatly or hang to maintain shape. Avoid hanging for extended periods if the fabric is prone to stretching.
