Product Insights
Contemporaine's Overlaid Effect Two-Tone Sweater uses integral knit construction to weave a two-tone pattern directly into a modal-acrylic-polyester blend, creating a subtle floating-layer look with a matte finish while preventing peeling, cracking, or separation. The fine knit yields a lightweight, soft, and smooth interior, offering warmth comparable to wool via 24.4% acrylic without the weight or itch, plus moisture management for easy layering. Letter sizes correspond to US numeric (S=6, M=8, L=10), and at $59 CAD this Simons in-house piece delivers mid-to-high value rooted in 1960s heritage and family ownership.
