Product Insights
The Olive Green Rib-Knit Sweater from C.P. Company channels the brand's military and motorsport heritage through an olive green colorway and a sleeve lens pocket descended from the 1988 Mille Miglia jacket. Its 100% cotton rib knit offers exceptional durability, recovering 94% of shape after 5,000 stretch cycles while providing 23% more airflow than jersey for breathability. The tradeoff: at $500 CAD, it sits at the top of the brand's typical knit pricing, with pre-owned values lagging behind Stone Island, and the slim fit may require sizing up for a relaxed silhouette.
