Caring for your Shilton rugby polo shirt
To preserve the quality and appearance of your rugby polo over time, a few simple steps are recommended.
Machine wash your polo inside out at 30°C maximum, using a mild detergent and no fabric softener. Avoid tumble-drying, which can alter the shape and quality of the fabric.
Iron at moderate temperature, preferably still slightly damp, taking care to avoid yoke areas and logos. Careful ironing will preserve the collar structure and overall appearance of your polo.
For storage, prefer folding to hangering, which can distort shoulders. Keep polo shirts out of direct sunlight to preserve color brilliance.
These few precautions will ensure that your Shilton rugby polo has an exceptionally long life, allowing you to enjoy its quality season after season.
