Product Insights
The Crochet Knit Striped Polo by Only & Sons, priced at 69 CAD and in stock, requires gentle care—machine wash 30°C in a laundry bag, air dry flat, no bleach or tumble dry. Its openwork cotton pills from friction and snags; a single snag can ladder into a visible run. Ribbed trims help retain shape, but the shirt is best worn in low-contact settings with smooth accessories and stored folded to prevent shoulder dimples and snag runs. Surface pilling from normal wear is expected and softens the stripes.
- Care
Gentle machine wash 30°C in a laundry bag; air dry flat; no bleach, tumble dry, or dry clean.
Why this is supported
The brand confirms the polo
can be machine washed on a gentle cycle at 30°C

avoiding bleach, tumble drying, or dry cleaning to prevent stretching or snagging
Can this 100% cotton openwork knit be machine washed, or does it require hand washing?. After washing, it must be laid flat and air-dried; hanging wet deforms the openwork. For storage, it should be folded, not hung, to avoid shoulder dimpling.
- Durability
Openwork cotton pills from friction and snags on sharp objects.
Why this is supported
The openwork knit is prone to pilling from friction against seatbelts or backpacks, and individual yarn loops can snag on watchbands or zippers. This is a normal characteristic of cotton crochet, not a defect.
- Shape retention
Ribbed trims help the shirt retain its shape.
Why this is supported
The ribbed collar, cuffs, and hem are tighter than the openwork body, contracting more after washing to help the shirt maintain its silhouette despite the cotton's natural relaxation.
- Snag run risk
A single snag can ladder into a visible run along a stripe.
Why this is supported
The openwork crochet knit
exposes individual yarn loops to catching on watch bands, zippers, or rough furniture edges

- Suitable wear

- Pilling

Why this is supported

this is a normal aging trait of cotton crochet and does not indicate poor construction
How the crochet knit holds up over time — surface_pilling. This occurs when
Repeated friction from seatbelts, backpack straps, or chair backs will abrade the 100% cotton yarns, gradually softening the crisp stripe pattern under a fine fuzz of pills

- Snagging
The crochet knit snags on accessories; best for low-contact settings.
Why this is supported
The openwork crochet weave exposes loops to catching.
a single snag can ladder into a visible run along a stripe, making the shirt best suited to low-contact settings and smooth accessories.
How the crochet knit holds up over time — snag_vulnerabilityThis confirms it is best for low-contact settings.
- Storage
Store folded in a drawer to prevent shoulder dimples and snag runs.
Why this is supported
The open crochet knit is susceptible to both hanger-induced shoulder dimpling and snags from rough objects.
The polo should be stored folded in a drawer rather than on a hanger — a hanger concentrates the garment’s weight at the shoulders, pulling the openwork into permanent dimples and causing vertical stretching that even rewashing and reshaping rarely fully reverses.
How the crochet knit holds up over time — folded_storageEven the ribbed collar and hem, which help preserve the silhouette, only do so when the polo is stored folded.
The three-button polo collar and ribbed hem naturally contract more than the openwork body, so even as the main fabric relaxes with wear these bands stay snug and help preserve the shirt’s silhouette — one of the few built-in defenses against the knit’s gradual growth.
How the crochet knit holds up over time — ribbed_edgingAdditionally, the exposed yarn loops are vulnerable to catching on zippers and rough furniture, which can cause snags that ladder along stripes.
The openwork crochet weave exposes individual yarn loops to catching on watch bands, zippers, or rough furniture edges; a single snag can ladder into a visible run along a stripe, making the shirt best suited to low-contact settings and smooth accessories.
How the crochet knit holds up over time — snag_vulnerabilityThus, folding the polo in a drawer protects against both forms of damage.
- Post-wash handling
After washing, lay flat to dry; hanging wet distorts the fit.
Why this is supported
The research indicates that wet cotton crochet stretches severely.
After washing, the cotton fibers swell and the crochet stitches relax, so the polo must be laid flat on a towel, gently pulled back to its original dimensions, and air-dried — hanging when wet will stretch the body and sleeves beyond recovery, distorting the tailored fit into a shapeless drape.
How the crochet knit holds up over time — damp_reshapingTherefore, laying the polo flat and reshaping it immediately after washing is essential to preserve the fit.
