Will this polo shirt shrink after washing?
Cotton knit fabric can shrink if washed at high temperatures. To keep your polo looking its best, wash on a cool or gentle cycle (30°C or below) and lay flat or hang to air dry — never tumble dry on high heat. Following these simple steps protects both the fit and the cable knit texture for the long run.
Is a cable knit polo suitable for warm weather?
Yes. The Cable Knit Polo is crafted from soft, breathable cotton — a natural fibre that regulates temperature well. The cable knit construction actually creates small air pockets in the weave that improve airflow compared to a flat piqué. It's ideal for mild to warm days, transitional seasons, and any time you want texture without bulk.
What is the difference between a cable knit polo and a regular polo shirt?
A regular polo is typically made from flat piqué cotton — structured and smooth. A cable knit polo uses a textured knit construction that creates raised, interlocking rope-like patterns across the fabric. This gives it a three-dimensional, premium look with more visual depth and a softer drape. It's a more fashion-forward take on the classic polo that works across more occasions.
How should I care for the Cable Knit Polo to keep it looking new?
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Turn it inside out before washing to protect the cable knit texture. Do not tumble dry on high heat — air dry flat or hang on a wide hanger to maintain the shape. If ironing is needed, use a low-heat setting with a cloth between the iron and the fabric to avoid flattening the knit pattern.
