Product Insights
Knit is 89% acrylic and 11% cotton. The cut is intentionally oversized and boxy, and many buyers report it runs at least one size large. The cropped hem sits above the waistband and leaves the lower back and hips exposed.

At 49 CAD, reviewers describe good quality for the price and a premium-feeling knit despite the chunky look.
Verified claims
- material
- Knit is 89% acrylic and 11% cotton.
- fit & sizing
- The cut is intentionally oversized and boxy, and many buyers report it runs at least one size large.
- fit & sizing
- Petite or short-torso shoppers may find the oversized cut overwhelming unless they size down two or more sizes.
- length
- The cropped hem sits above the waistband and leaves the lower back and hips exposed.
- construction
- Drop shoulders create a relaxed, squared silhouette but can bunch under the arms when arms are down.
- construction
- Because the shoulder seam is not anchored at the shoulder point, small differences in body width shift where the sleeve join lands.
- feel
- The chunky shaker-rib knit looks substantial but is reported as soft, plush, not itchy and surprisingly lightweight.
- construction
- Shaker rib is a reversible, stretchy stitch with a naturally loose, textured surface; small holes or unevenness are characteristic rather than flaws.
- material & feel
- Shaker-rib texture and ribbed cuffs and hem add elasticity and shape, with some warmth around the shoulders and arms.
- care
- Machine wash inside out, separately, in cold water on a gentle cycle; do not bleach or iron; lay flat to dry and reshape while damp.
- durability
- Acrylic-dominant knits can pill at friction points; one reviewer called it unpleasant and quick to pill, while others say it holds up well to washing and wear.
- color
- Colors often read differently in person — more orange, mossy green or powder blue than online photos — though reviewers usually still like the actual shade.
- styling
- Five colorways with large matte-look buttons and a V detail at the back neck give the cardigan a chic, slightly retro finish.
- styling
- Works as an effortless oversized layer over wide-leg jeans or work outfits, and can be styled intentionally streetwear.
- styling
- Style the cropped hem over a longer shirt or open over a tucked top with high-rise bottoms to frame the waist.
- warmth
- Warm enough for shoulders and arms as an indoor or fall layer, but too short and loose to be a standalone cold-weather outer layer.
- styling
- Pair with a lighter-weight layer underneath; two similar-weight knits can feel bulky at the shoulder.
- value
- At 49 CAD, reviewers describe good quality for the price and a premium-feeling knit despite the chunky look.
- variants
- All 23 listed colour-and-size variants are in stock at 49 CAD.
- fit & sizing
- Orange and Sage Green omit size Large; Black, Off White and Baby Blue offer all five sizes.
- construction
- Ribbed trim at the V-neck, cuffs and hem; three-button single-breasted placket; back neck has a small V knit detail.

Office layering over a turtleneck
Wear this cardigan as a mid-weight layer over a turtleneck for the workday — reviewers say the knit isn't bulky, so it layers smoothly while keeping you warm through the day. It also looks chic as part of work outfits, per customer reviews.[1]
Casual weekends with wide-leg jeans
For relaxed weekend outfits, reviewers say this cropped boxy cardigan pairs well with high-waisted wide-leg jeans, showing the outfit underneath. Some describe it as looking chic over jeans or work outfits too.[1]
Embrace the oversized look with this chunky rib cardigan
Reviewers who lean into the extra volume find this cardigan works for intentional oversized streetwear styling, with its exaggerated drop shoulder and chunky shaker rib giving a cozy, effortless look. Be aware it runs very large — people who usually wear a medium often need an XS or smaller, and some who size down still find it oversized. The cropped length also sits higher than expected, so lower back and hips may be uncovered.[1]
Cozy indoor and fall layering cardigan
Reviewers describe this cardigan as a cozy indoor or fall layer that keeps shoulders and arms warm, with a soft, lightweight knit that feels premium despite its chunky look. Because it's cropped and loose around the hips, reviewers say it leaves the lower torso exposed and works better for layering than as a cold-weather standalone outer layer. Some also note the acrylic knit pills quickly for them, so it may not suit anyone sensitive to synthetics.[1]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Big Button Shaker-Rib Cardigan: Choose this if you want a soft, chunky shaker-rib cardigan with an oversized, cropped boxy cut, big buttons, and a deep V-neck for layering over turtlenecks at the office or styling with high-waisted wide-leg jeans. Reviewers report it runs very large—most size down one to three sizes, and petite or short-torso wearers may need to size down two or more to avoid being overwhelmed. Note it is better suited as an indoor or fall layer, since the cropped length leaves the hips and lower torso exposed, and some reviewers say the acrylic knit pills quickly.[1,2] | Shaker Rib Open Cardigan: Choose this if you want a loose, boxy open-front cardigan in a dense, textured shaker-rib knit that falls to the hip, with dropped shoulders, voluminous balloon sleeves gathered at ribbed cuffs, two low front patch pockets, and wide ribbed trims. It comes in sizes X-Small to X-Large and four colors (Black, Ivory/Cream Beige, Teal, Ochre Yellow), as a Twik exclusive designed in Canada. Note it is a fully synthetic knit made of 50% acrylic and 50% reprocessed acrylic, and the open style has no closures, so it layers rather than fastens.[3,4,5] | Fluffy Knit Crossover Cardigan: Choose this if you want a soft, fluffy knit layer for cozy home lounging or transitional fall/winter wear — reviewers describe it as warm without weight and 'très doux' against the skin. The crossover V-neck front, attached waist tie for a customizable fit, and generous cut naturally create an oversized, slouchy silhouette, especially if you size up. Note that it runs large with extra-long sleeves and a wide body, so size down if you prefer a trim, tailored look rather than a boxy fit.[6,7,8] |

Great customer service at store pick-up (Park Royal, North Vancouver)
Knitted cardigan
I really like this sweater. According to the size chart, I ought to have purchased it in a size medium, though I chose a size small and it fits good. If I had gotten a medium, the arms would be too long and the shoulder width more than likely so generous it would slump over. The buttons are beautiful, by the way. They look like multi banded little matte finish agate slices. A medium would not have given me the length I prefer in the waist, and this is why I chose to keep the size small. Buyer beware, this sweater is short. It’s loose fitting and cozy everywhere, but it is designed in length the same way a shirt would be designed to very easily showcase your belly button. Long tops underneath are a must, if you’re at all conservative in your dress. The knot design is attractive, the seams are all well sewn, and the V in the back collar is so subtle yet a perfect detail. Appreciate it, Simons, thank you. The orange is a lot more like copper, by the way. Pretty much the same as butterscotch chips. <3
Beautiful sweater
Such a nice layer, the colour is beautiful. It washes so nicely. I dried it for a minute or two in the dryer and then layed it flat. Did not have to iron it at all. So happy with this purchase.
Too chunky
The colour in person is more orange and the knit of the fabric is very chunky. The fit was very oversized.
La couleur est vraiment belle.
La couleur est vraiment belle. Cardigan parfait pour l'automne. Beau look surdimensionné.
Nice style
This is a great foundation sweater
Great for added warmth and coverup
Very cute but back is a bit short.
Effortless style
Love composition of the sweater -I know it will last and the versatility of it’s style.
J'adore
J'adore, j'aime le mettre avec un col roulé pour le travail. Ça me garde au chaud tout la journée.
Nice cardigan!❤️
It is soft and stylish. I bought the deep purple one. I might buy the lilac if it is on sale again.
Superbe mais. .
Malheureusement fait en acrylique, fibre synthétique très désagréable à porter et qui bouloche rapidement.
Warm and stylish
I ordered a medium and had to take it back because it was huge. I bought an extra small and it’s perfect. I really like the angle of the knit at the back of the neck. I have short hair so this angles accent will be seen.
Tres belle qualité pour le
Tres belle qualité pour le prix, en espérant qu’il restera beau à l’usage…!
Love it
Very fashionable
Very boxy fit
The fit is extremely oversized and boxy. I usually order size large for this brand and sized down to an xs and it's still very wide. I know that's the style but it's still oversized on me even after going down multiple sizes. I'm glad I noticed how boxy it was on the model so I knew to size waaaaaaay down.
Great style!
Fit and looks great. Colour is awesome
Joli, moderne, couleur me va bien
Je le recommande
Comforyable
Nice overlay for a cold day
Beautiful shade of green
I love this perfectly cropped, not too tight sweater. I wear it with wide leg jeans
Beautiful
Love this cardigan. Beautiful color and design. Good quality as well.
Love it! Looks and fits exactly like the pictures
Cozy, nice material, feels like good quality

Fits quite large
I ordered a medium based on the size chart, and while I could have worn it if I couldn't return the cardigan, it was quite a large make. I ended up returning it and sizing down to a small which should still be oversized, but more flattering. The fabric is decently soft and a medium-weight weave. I believe the closest I can describe the shade is a dark powder blue. I ordered this to wear over a skirt and it's the perfect length for that.
Very cute, very cozy!
Colour is a little more of a "mossy" green than it looked in the picture, but I love it!
Comfy yet stylish
Just what I wanted, great addition to my wardrobe
Adorable cardigan
Confortable, manche d’une longueur appréciable.
Chaud et confortable
Je l’adore ! Je vais le commander dans une autre couleur.
Achat en ligne
Pour mes 5’5’’, 130 livres, habituellement, je prends médium, mais en lisant les commentaires, j'ai pris la taille « petit ». Malheureusement, il était trop grand. Je vais peut-être commander la taille la plus petite. La couleur, le vert, était magnifique.
Le petit plus
Correspond à mes attentes
Adorable
Soft and cosy. Love the v detail in the back
Very cozy

Obsessed stitching is amazing
Colour is so cute
Chic et confortable
Belle tenue de ce tricot avec boutons noirs mats qui lui donne un aspect chic et décontracté. J’ai acheté un XS et la coupe semi-ample est parfaite.
Confortable et fait ample
J’adore la couleur de cette veste. En lisant les avis précédents, j’ai choisi de prendre une taille plus petite que d’habitude et je suis contente d’avoir opté pour celle-ci Elle est un peu plus courte que je croyais (crop) mais elle fait très bien!
Big Button Sweater
This is a nice sweater. I like the big buttons. It's thicker, soft and warm. I gave a 4 for quality of the knit.True to size, sort of, if you like that style. Unfortunately it's way too short and loose to be warm around the torso and hips. Also the picture is a bit deceiving. The model doesn't show the sleeves. They bag out and drop attaching almost to the waist of the sweater, like 80's baggy sleeve and torso tops and jackets were. I got the Small and it was still too baggy all over. If it was longer with normal sized sleeves it would work. Just looks too baggy on me. I can't wear it.
Cardigan
Soft knit sweater is not itchy and although looks chunky is actually quite lightweight and not too bulky
