Contemporaine
100% Reprocessed Cotton Textured Sweater
This is a women's boxy-fit crewneck sweater from Contemporaine by Simons, constructed from stretch 100% reprocessed cotton knit with a delicate slub texture, short sleeves, dropped shoulders, and ribbed edging at the collar, cuffs, and hem. It is intended for casual everyday wear and is part of Simons' Vision sustainability program, featuring recycled cotton and reduced-impact production. Customer reviews note that the boxy fit runs large and loose, so some may prefer to size down.

Product Insights
Contemporaine's 100% reprocessed cotton textured sweater offers a sustainable luxury at an accessible price, eliminating the typical green markup. The slub knit creates a subtle texture that deepens over time, developing a lived-in character while resisting wrinkles and pilling. Its relaxed drape, born from shorter recycled fibers, molds comfortably without clinging, and the fabric softens with each wear. Exclusive to Simons and designed in Canada, this sweater embodies understated elegance and circular production, saving up to 20,000 liters of water per kg compared to conventional cotton.
