    Notes

    A Mango (MNG Man line) shirt in 100% linen, with a band / grandad ("Mao") collar (a low stand, no points) and a half-placket POPOVER front — the buttons open only partway down the chest, with the front closed below, so it pulls over the head (not a full button-front shirt). Long sleeves, no chest pocket. A light, breathable linen base for warm and mild days in the smart-casual register — a touch more relaxed and resort-leaning; worn solo or cleanly under a jacket or knit. Linen creases naturally.

    Care regimens

    Linen and linen-rich blends

    every ~10 days

    Cool, gentle washing and drying with no high heat, refreshed with steam rather than over-washed. Natural creasing is linen's character, not a flaw — linen softens and looks better with every gentle wash.

    After each wear: hang so the creases relax and air it out; a little rumple is linen's natural character

    Everyday

    After wear and periodically, between washes.

    1. Air and hang to relax the creases — linen recovers its shape on a hanger.
    2. A steamer or a light press resets the look without another wash.
    3. Lift any lint and fluff off the surface.

    What not to do

    • Don't wash too often — steaming to refresh is enough. Linen softens and looks better with gentle washing over time.

    When dirty

    When visibly dirty or sweated through.

    1. Pre-treat stains with a stain remover first, gently, without scrubbing.
    2. Machine wash cool, up to 30 °C, on a gentle/delicate cycle with a colour- and dark-protecting detergent.
    3. Reshape the piece while it is still damp and straighten the seams before it dries.
    4. Line dry or dry flat, away from the radiator; avoid the hot tumble dryer.
    5. Iron the linen damp on the linen setting, or refresh it with steam.

    What not to do

    • Stick to a cool wash and low drying heat — heat shrinks linen and creases it harder.
    • Linen/viscose blends are weaker when wet — handle gently, support the weight and don't wring.
