Warm top layer for autumn days
Per reviews analysis, customers describe this cardigan as a warm, stylish top layer for autumn and cool-weather wear, with thick, soft fabric that reviewers say keeps you genuinely warm. Note that some reviewers report the zipper sticks and does not glide smoothly, so it may not be the easiest layer for quick on-and-off wear.[1]

Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Loose Jacquard Knit Zip-Up Cardigan: Choose this if you want a loose, boxy zip-up for cool-weather layering: reviewers describe its thick, soft stretch knit as warm and cozy for autumn, and the patterned brown design features a large cream plaid jacquard, shawl-like mock collar, ribbed hem and cuffs, and a two-way front zipper in sizes X-Small to X-Large. Note that some reviewers report the metal zipper sticks and is hard to glide—one had a seamstress apply wax and it still isn't smooth—so it may not suit quick, one-handed zip-ups.[1,2] | Metallic Buttons Jacquard Cardigan: Choose this if you want a thick, stretchy jacquard cardigan with a tailored true-to-size fit that reviewers say dresses up casual outfits, works over dresses or skirts for transitional warmth, and lends a polished touch for the office. It is made of 50% LENZING™ ECOVERO™ viscose, 28% polyester, and 22% nylon, with shiny gold buttons, two buttoned patch pockets, ribbed crew neck and hem, and removable sewn-in shoulder pads for a boxy, slightly cropped silhouette. Note that it is a soft sweater knit, not a structured blazer, so buyers expecting crisp tailoring may find it too relaxed; those wanting a looser drape can size up without losing the design's line.[3,4] | Stretch Polka-Dotted Jacquard Cardigan: Choose this if you want a boxy, slightly relaxed crew-neck cardigan in a stretchy supple jacquard knit with an all-over polka dot pattern, covered round buttons down the front, and ribbed trim at the neckline, cuffs and hem. It works for shoppers who like a hip-length, cropped-feeling silhouette and a soft viscose-rich blend (45% viscose, 30% polyamide, 25% polyester), available in Black or Baby Blue in sizes 1 (small and medium) and 2 (medium and large). Note the polka dots are knit into the fabric rather than printed, with a slightly textured surface that shows a little fuzz at the dot edges.[5,6,7] |

Cardigan zippé tricot jacquard
Tellement un beau chandail. Magnifique couleurs et chaud en plus.
j'adore
La coupe, les couleur, la texture.. ma fille veut me le voler ;)
Beau mais fermeture éclair difficile
Ce cardigan est vraiment beau cependant j’ai dû le retourner en magasin car la fermeture éclair fonctionnait difficilement. Même en échangeant avec un autre,il fallu que la couturière glisse sur cette fermeture une petite cire . J’ai tout de même conservé le cardigan sachant que la fermeture ne coulisse pas aisément. Un peu déçue tout de même.
Beautiful Autumn
This sweater is absolutely beautiful for Autumn. It’s thick and soft. The only negative thing is that the zipper sticks as you zip it up. Other than that I love it.
