Product Insights

The Contemporaine Patch Pocket Open Cardigan is a sustainable coatigan — a knit jacket designed as a standalone outer layer — made from LENZING ECOVERO fiber verified by Simons' Vision eco-audit. Its buttery-soft handfeel and heavy drape provide structure while remaining fluid and indoor-friendly. Priced at C$69, it undercuts typical EcoVero cardigans by about a third. The loose fit suits the coatigan style but may require sizing down; buyers advise ordering one size down for a closer fit. It is not intended for layering under a coat. The 'Bleu nuit' variant is more indigo than true navy. Rated 4.9 stars from 10 reviews, it is designed in Canada and sold exclusively at Simons.
