Frequently Asked Questions
Athloun's bamboo polo shirts are made from a premium bamboo-cotton-elastane blend that delivers performance on two levels. First, bamboo fibre offers natural inherent benefits — antimicrobial and anti-odor properties, UPF 50+ sun protection, superior breathability, and moisture-wicking technology. Second, select styles are enhanced with performance finishes achieved through plant-based chemistry: our Travel Polo and Luxe Vee carry a stain-repellent and wrinkle-free finish (Zelan R3 — plant-based technology that repels wine, tea, coffee, and ketchup), while our EcoEMO range is infused with neem and tulsi extracts through a patented herbal finish (Patent IN 318405). No synthetic chemicals. No virgin polyester. Just plant-powered performance.
Yes! Our polo shirts are designed as versatile athleisure clothing that transitions seamlessly from office to outdoor activities. The tailored collar and clean silhouette give you a professional look for work, while the breathable bamboo fabric makes them perfect for golf, recreational tennis, pickleball, travel, and leisure activities.
Bamboo fibre is naturally antibacterial, which prevents the growth of odor-causing bacteria. This means your Athloun polo stays fresh longer, even after active outings or long days. The plant-based fabric achieves these anti-odor benefits without chemical treatments.
UPF 50+ (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) blocks over 98% of harmful UV rays from reaching your skin. This makes our polo shirts ideal for outdoor activities like golf, pickleball, or travel. Unlike regular cotton shirts that offer minimal sun protection, Athloun's bamboo blend provides built-in sun safety.
Absolutely! The lightweight bamboo fabric is naturally breathable and moisture-wicking, making it perfect for summer wear. The soft, airy texture allows excellent air circulation, keeping you cool and comfortable even in hot, humid conditions.
Our bamboo polo shirts are machine washable. For best results, refer to the care label on your garment for specific washing and drying instructions. The bamboo fabric is naturally durable and maintains its softness, breathability, and anti-odor properties over time.

Bamboo fabric feels softer and silkier than regular cotton, with a luxurious texture that gets even softer with each wash. It's lighter weight than cotton but more durable, and naturally has a subtle sheen that gives it a premium appearance.
Plant-based fibres like bamboo, cotton, and modal may show a natural shrinkage of up to 5% after the first wash. This is a normal characteristic of natural fabrics and stabilises after the initial laundering. Following the care instructions on your garment label will help minimise this.
EcoEMO is Athloun's patented plant-based fabric technology (Patent IN 318405), infused with 100% natural neem and tulsi extracts. This herbal finish gives the fabric natural antimicrobial, anti-odor, and bug-repellent properties, plus additional UV resistance (lab-tested to a minimum UPF 20 per AATCC183 standards) — durable for 30+ washes. EcoEMO products are made from cotton and modal, are 100% vegan, and free from synthetic chemical treatments. Lab tested and confirmed per AATCC100 and AATCC183 standards.
