The Complete Guide

Four Pillars of
Garment Care

Each DapperTee polo is designed to require minimal care. Our Polyamide fabric was chosen specifically because it performs with almost no intervention — but proper care extends that performance for years.

01

Washing

Cold or warm · Gentle
Polyamide is inherently low-maintenance. Unlike cotton, it doesn't hold odour or absorb as much moisture — which means you can often wash it less frequently. When you do, a gentle cycle at 30°C is all it needs.
  • Machine wash at 30°C maximum on a gentle or delicate cycle
  • Use a mild, pH-neutral detergent — avoid biological detergents
02

Drying

Air dry · Shade preferred
One of the most significant advantages of Italian Polyamide is how quickly it dries. Most DapperTee polos are fully dry within 30–45 minutes at room temperature — no tumble dryer required, ever.
  • Hang dry immediately after washing — the fabric relaxes back to its original shape naturally.
  • Dry in shade or indoors— prolonged direct sunlight can fade the fabric over time

03

Ironing

Almost never needed
This is where DapperTee truly sets itself apart. Our Polyamide has natural shape memory — it resists wrinkles by design. You will almost never need to iron your polo. Hang it when dry and it stays crisp.
  • Iron is rarely needed— hang immediately after washing for a wrinkle-free result every time.
  • If ironing is necessary, use the lowest heat setting (cool/synthetic) only


04

Storage

Fold or hang — never crush
Polyamide recovers beautifully from compression — but long-term storage in a crushed state is best avoided. Whether you fold or hang is entirely personal preference. Both are correct for this fabric.
  • Store clean and completely dry— storing even slightly damp leads to odour in Polyamide.
  • If hanging, use a smooth, rounded hanger to maintain collar shape — avoid wire hangers

What Never to Do

Six things that will damage your DapperTee. Avoid these and your polo will perform for years.

Never wash above 40°C. High temperature permanently damages Polyamide fibres, causing irreversible shrinkage and loss of stretch.

Never tumble dry. The combination of heat and mechanical action in a dryer will permanently damage the knit structure.

Never use bleach. Bleach causes rapid fibre degradation and irreversible discolouration in Polyamide fabrics.

Never wring or twist. Squeeze gently to remove excess water. Wringing distorts the knit and breaks the shape memory.

Never dry in direct sunlight. UV exposure causes fading in coloured Polyamide over time. Shade drying preserves colour integrity.

Never store damp. Even slightly damp storage leads to mildew odour in synthetic fabrics. Always store bone-dry.

The Traveller's Guide

Pack It,
Wear It.

One of the most-loved qualities of our Polyamide polos is how they travel. Pack it in your carry-on, take it out at your destination — it's still sharp.

01
Fold, Don't Roll
Fold the polo flat along its seams. The shape memory means it recovers from folding — but rolling creates circular creases that take longer to drop out.
02
Layer in the Middle
Place the polo between softer garments in your bag. Avoid packing heavy items on top.
03
Hang on Arrival
Remove from your bag and hang immediately. Within 15–20 minutes, the Polyamide will drop any travel creases on its own.
