FAQs

What material is the Polo Bear embroidery made of?

The Polo Bear is knitted using intarsia techniques, and the "RL" is embroidered. The main body is 100% cotton, while the design itself incorporates 80% cotton and 20% linen yarns for the knit details.

How do I determine my size?

The jumper has a loose fit. For size M, the length is 58cm and sleeve length is 57cm. Length typically increases by 1.27 cm between sizes. Refer to standard UK dress sizing for guidance (this item is UK 14 / L).

Can this jumper be machine washed?

No, it is recommended to hand wash or dry clean this jumper to maintain its quality and the integrity of the embroidery and knit details.

What is the return policy for this item?

Please refer to the specific retailer's return policy for details on returns and exchanges.

Is this jumper suitable for very cold weather?

The heavy-gauge cotton construction provides good warmth, making it suitable for cool to cold weather, especially when layered.

What does 'intarsia-knitted' mean?

Intarsia is a knitting technique used to create patterned designs by knitting with different colored yarns in separate sections, creating a solid, integrated pattern rather than one printed or overlaid.

Where is the "RL" embroidery located?

The "RL" embroidery is located on the left hem of the jumper.

Troubleshooting

Pilling or fuzz on the fabric

Gentle hand washing and avoiding harsh friction can minimize pilling. If pilling occurs, a fabric shaver can be carefully used.

Embroidery appears damaged or snagged

Avoid direct ironing on the embroidery. If a thread is snagged, carefully trim the loose thread with small scissors. Do not pull.

Garment has lost its shape after washing

Ensure the garment is reshaped while damp and always laid flat to dry. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as these can distort the fabric.

Color fading

Wash inside out in cold water and use a mild detergent. Avoid direct sunlight when drying.
