FAQ
Q: Is this sweater too thick to wear under a blazer or sport coat?
A: Not at all. We have optimized the gauge of this knit to be "mid-weight." It provides plenty of warmth but is streamlined enough to layer comfortably under a tailored coat or a puffer vest.
Q: Does the zipper irritate the neck or chin?
A: No. Our design includes a "zipper garage" or a soft knit backing behind the hardware to ensure the metal never makes direct contact with your skin.
Q: Will the cable knit pattern start pilling after a few wears?
A: We use high-twist, long-staple yarns specifically chosen to minimize pilling. To keep it looking brand new, we recommend washing the sweater inside out and avoiding high-heat drying.
Q: How do I style the collar—zipped up or down?
A: Both! Zipping it halfway creates a flattering "V" shape that elongates the neck and showcases a shirt underneath. Zipping it all the way up creates a sleek mock-neck look that is perfect for colder, windier days.
Q: Does this sweater run true to size?
A: This sweater is designed with a "Modern Fit"—slightly tailored through the body but with enough room for a base layer. If you prefer a very loose, oversized feel, we recommend sizing up.
