Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Boxy-Fit Felted Pure Wool Sweater: Choose this if you want a relaxed, boxy crew neck with a slightly cropped length ending near the top of the hips, ribbed neckline, cuffs and hem, and long, relaxed sleeves. It is made of 100% reprocessed lambswool in a soft, slightly fuzzy felted knit, and reviewers report the felted wool supplies steady warmth without overheating — a fit described as ideal for cool, not overheated homes — with the cut flattering without feeling tight and pairing easily with existing wardrobe pieces. Note that reviewers' impressions of lasting quality are based on their own experience rather than verified durability testing.[1,2,3,4] | Shaker-Rib Boxy-Fit Sweater: Choose this if you want a relaxed, boxy crewneck with a cropped shape, raglan sleeves, and wide ribbed edges at the collar, cuffs, and hem. Its vertical shaker ribbing makes a soft, thick and airy knit in a reprocessed cotton blend (57% reprocessed cotton, 36% acrylic, 7% polyester), shown in a light cream color. Note that the knit texture appears slightly open, and sizing runs from X-Small to Large only, so it may not suit those wanting a longer cut or larger sizes.[5,6,7,8] | Two-Tone Openwork Boxy-Fit Sweater: Choose this if you want a loose, boxy sweater with a relaxed silhouette that falls to the hip, made from a two-tone marled openwork knit in 60% reprocessed cotton and 40% acrylic. It features a shallow crew neck with ribbed trim, wide ribbed cuffs on three-quarter elbow-length sleeves, and a straight, slightly cropped hem with ribbed edging, offered in sizes X-Small through X-Large. Note that the openwork stitch pattern creates small holes in the knit by design, so it may not suit shoppers looking for a dense, fully solid knit.[9,10,11,12] |

Beau et chaud.
Belle coupe, vraie laine, un chandail pour quand il fait frais dans une maison pas surchauffée. Excellent pour moi. Le bleu est magnifique. La manche est longue, mais pas trop longue.
