Product Insights
Le 31's Rib-Jersey Polo-Collar Cardigan in comfort fit offers a sporty, modern aesthetic with a metallic zip closure and relaxed fit, distinct from traditional button-front cardigans. Its smooth, soft hand and slight drape from viscose content, along with stretch from spandex, provide comfort and flexibility against the skin. The main tradeoff: the metallic zipper requires gentle care to prevent tarnish, contrasting with the easier care of a button front. Made from 63% recycled polyester, it saves energy, water, and reduces emissions, while resisting pilling better than pure-viscose sweaters. At a sale price of $49.95 CAD, it offers value compared to similar imports.
Verified claims
- Fit
- Comfort fit is roomier in the chest and shoulders than a standard fit, with a generous cut that layers easily.
- Care
- Machine-washable and low-heat dryable; zipper requires gentle care to prevent tarnish.
- Hand feel
- Smooth, soft hand like a synthetic knit, comfortable against skin
- Drape
- Slight drape from viscose content, hangs with gentle fall
- Stretch
- Touch of stretch from spandex allows fabric to flex with movement
- Environmental footprint
- The recycled-polyester content saves about 59% energy, 90% water, and 32% emissions versus virgin polyester, and diverts roughly 60 plastic bottles per kilogram of rPET.
- Pilling resistance
- Resists fuzzing and pilling better than pure-viscose sweaters
- Closure
- Metallic zip closure: sporty modern vs. Uniqlo's preppy button front.
- Styling
- Worn open over a white ribbed tank top, it highlights the metallic zip and ribbed texture.
- Style
- Zip and relaxed fit yield sporty, modern aesthetic, distinct from button-front cardigans.
- Design tradeoff
- Metallic zipper offers sporty look but requires more careful laundering than button-front.
- Origin
- Exclusive Simons label designed in Canada, available only at Simons.
- Value
- Sale price 49.95 CAD beats similar imports like Uniqlo's 69 CAD.
- Sustainability
- 63% recycled polyester from plastic bottles, with viscose and spandex.
- Thick ribbed jersey
- The cardigan is cut from a thick ribbed jersey, so the fabric has a substantial ribbed texture rather than a flat knit.
- Hidden side-seam pockets
- Hidden side-seam pockets keep the front silhouette crisp.
- Customer reviews
- Buyers describe the cardigan as chic, comfortable, and good quality, and note it looks better worn than on the hanger.
- Recycled-polyester durability
- The recycled polyester retains equivalent tensile strength, stretch recovery, and abrasion resistance to virgin polyester, so the cardigan should hold up to regular wear.

Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Rib-Jersey Polo-Collar Cardigan Comfort Fit: Choose this if you want a comfort-fit zip cardigan with a polo collar and thick ribbed jersey, whose polyester is made from recycled plastic bottles (63% recycled polyester, 35% viscose, 2% spandex). It offers a metallic full-length zip, hidden side-seam pockets, and comes in Black, Chocolate/Espresso, and Navy/Midnight Blue from small to XX-large. Customers described it as comfortable, and one review reports it holding up well after a year of wear, with the colour noted as eye-catching enough to draw compliments.[2,3,4] | Felted Cardigan Imported From Seoul: Choose this if you want a loose, boxy cropped cardigan with drop shoulders, a collarless V-neck, and button-front styling from Le 31's Seoul-imported selection. It suits shoppers who like a dense, soft felted knit (80% polyester, 20% rayon) with hand-in side pockets and an adjustable elastic drawstring waist with metal grommet-and-toggle hem adjusters, offered in medium and large in charcoal, ivory/cream beige, and burgundy. Note the cuffs are simple turned hems without ribbing, so sleeves stay smooth rather than snug at the wrist.[5,6,7] | Embossed Geo Zip Cardigan: Choose this if you want a bomber-style zip cardigan with a raised embossed geometric basketweave texture and a full-length silver metal zipper, finished with ribbed collar, cuffs, and hem and side pockets. The stretch blend of 63% recycled polyester, 35% viscose, and 2% spandex suits shoppers who want a bit of give, and it comes in sizes S through XXL across Black, Dark Taupe, Green, Navy/Midnight Blue, and Burgundy. Note the listing describes a slightly relaxed, waist-length cut, and the textured knit is a bold, tactile look rather than a plain sweatshirt finish.[8,9,10,11] |

Chic , confortable, belle qualité
Great value for the price
Super colour, got loads of compliments rocking this jacket. It isn’t loud and looks better once worn than on the hanger on display.
