Laundering & Pressing: Poplin vs. Twill vs. Oxford

Different fabrics deserve different care. Here’s how to keep your shirts looking their best:

• Poplin

  • Machine wash cold.

  • Hang dry or tumble dry low.

  • Iron at medium-high heat for a crisp finish.

• Twill

  • Machine wash cold.

  • Tumble dry low or hang dry.

  • Wrinkle-resistant; may only need light pressing.

• Oxford

  • Wash in warm water (more forgiving weave).

  • Tumble dry low or hang dry.

  • Slightly textured surface hides wrinkles well.

Pro Tip: Always wash Deo Veritas shirts inside out and avoid bleach — it weakens cotton fibers.
