Le 31
Minimalist V-Neck Sweater
This Le 31 by Simons exclusive is a minimalist long-sleeve V-neck sweater for men, designed in Canada, made from a fine-gauge knit with a soft drape. It features a shallow V-neckline, set-in sleeves with ribbed cuffs, and a ribbed hem, crafted from a blend of LENZING™ ECOVERO™ viscose fibers sourced from certified renewable wood. The lightweight, close-fitting sweater serves as a layering piece suitable for everyday wear in mild or cooler conditions.

Product Insights
Le 31's Minimalist V-Neck Sweater offers a silky, flowing drape and gentle skin feel in a lightweight design ideal for layering and travel, thanks to its ECOVERO viscose blend. At CAD 59, it undercuts competitors like Tommy Hilfiger and Monsoon while using EU Ecolabel-certified fiber that reduces water and carbon impact by 50%. However, the viscose content causes gradual pilling and the sweater is not fully biodegradable, as only the ECOVERO portion decomposes. The blend resists bagging and shrinkage better than pure viscose, but synthetic fibers improve stretch recovery at the cost of environmental end-of-life.
Verified claims
- Handfeel
- Silky, gentle-on-skin handfeel with a flowing drape that prevents stiffness.
- Weight
- Lightweight feel ideal for layering and travel.
- Care
- Polyester and nylon improve stretch recovery, though pilling occurs over time.
- Price value
- At CAD 59, it undercuts Tommy Hilfiger (CAD 94.50) and Monsoon (≈CAD 107) ECOVERO V-necks and costs only CAD 20 more than Le 31's recycled cotton V-neck.
- Eco-credentials
- ECOVERO fiber is EU Ecolabel certified, FSC/PEFC controlled wood, with molecular traceability and 50% lower water and carbon use.
- Shape retention
- Blend resists bagging and shrinkage, unlike pure viscose.
- Pilling
- ECOVERO viscose is prone to pilling; surface fuzz develops gradually.
- Environmental impact
- Compared with generic viscose, ECOVERO viscose production uses at least 50% less water and emits 50% fewer carbon emissions.
- Eco-certifications
- ECOVERO viscose is EU Ecolabel certified (AT/016/001).
- Biodegradability
- Sweater is not fully biodegradable; only the 50% ECOVERO viscose decomposes.
- Care instructions
- Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle and lay flat to dry to maintain the sweater's shape.

Business casual office layering
Reviewers reach for this sweater for business casual office wear, with its clean V-neck and lightweight knit working as a mid-layer under blazers or over collared shirts for a polished look.[1]
A lightweight layering piece for building outfits
Reviewers appreciate this sweater's lightweight knit as a versatile layering piece, with neutral hues that make it an easy wardrobe staple. A few buyers were surprised by how light the fabric is compared with photos, and one found it too thin on its own for deep cold without additional layers.[1]
A gift for someone who loves soft, easy style
Per customer reviews, this sweater's soft feel and classic v-neck style make it a safe, appreciated present for comfort-seekers. Reviewers found it works for occasions like birthdays or holidays.[1]
Discreet coverage for ostomates
An ostomate reviewer praised this sweater for concealing a stoma bag discreetly. Its generous length and drape provide coverage without looking oversized. This reflects one shopper's reported experience.[1]
Everyday All-Day Wear Thanks to a Soft Fabric
A go-to V-neck for comfortable everyday wear, with reviewers repeatedly describing the fabric as soft and a pleasure to wear all day long. Note that fit runs inconsistently — some find it true-to-size while others find it large or small, and the body length can be short for taller torsos — so it may help to check the size chart before choosing a size.[1]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Minimalist V-Neck Sweater: Choose this if you want a soft, lightweight fine-knit V-neck that layers smoothly under blazers or over collared shirts — reviewers highlight its standout fabric softness and all-day comfort, and it comes in sizes SMALL through XX-LARGE across eight colors. Note that its thin knit is too light for deep cold without extra layers, colors can deviate from online photos (burgundy reportedly reads more plum), and fit runs inconsistently — some find it large, others small, and the body can be short for taller torsos — so checking the size chart or sizing up is wise. The fabric may occasionally pill after washing even inside out, so delicate care is recommended.[1] | V-Neck Sweater: Choose this if you want a soft, lightweight 100% recycled cotton V-neck as a basic layering piece — customers described its weight as ideal for spring and noted it layers cleanly under a light or leather jacket. Some reviewers said the sizing runs large, so consider sizing down for a tailored fit, and one reported the actual shade appearing more raspberry-toned than the online photos. It comes in a smooth, finely knit design with ribbed trims, in sizes Small to X-Large across seven colors.[2,3,4] | Johnny Collar Minimalist Sweater: Choose this if you want a minimalist long-sleeve pullover with an open, pointed Johnny collar and a clean, logo-free look. Its soft knit in a LENZING ECOVERO viscose blend (50% viscose, 28% polyester, 22% nylon) drapes softly with a fine, smooth, matte finish, finished with ribbed cuffs, hem, and edging, plus slim set-in sleeves. It comes in six colors (Black, Off White, Chocolate/Espresso, Mossy Green, Blue, and Raspberry/Cherry Red) in sizes small through X-large, though the straight silhouette sits just at the hips as worn on the model rather than as a general fit claim.[5,6,7,8] |

Xmas gift for my mate
Fits perfectly & looks good on him. It’s long enough to hide his ‘stoma’ bag, which he appreciates.

Fits very well, super soft
First purchase from Simon’s. Great sweater, super soft and fits very well.
V-neck sweater
Love how the shirt fits, but could be a little longer in the body. This is why I gave a four star, but does fit well on the shoulders to arm length and everything else except the length of the shirt itself.
Tout en douceur!
Très doux, souple, léger, couleur neutre qui va avec tout. Confortable et pas trop chaud, merci.
Bon rapport qualité/prix
Il est doux et l'encolure est V est parfait.
