Product Insights

The Moss-Stitch Striped Knit Cardigan by Contemporaine is an out-of-stock 100% recycled-cotton cardigan priced at $29.95 CAD. Its moss-stitch and boxy fit reduce pilling and maintain shape, while the recycled cotton feels ultra-soft. However, the short length limits active wear like golf but suits casual lounging; sizing down alters the intended silhouette and the cotton may shrink; the bumpy texture can irritate sensitive skin. The knitted stripes resist fading, and the structure hides fuzz, but buyers report a 2.5-star rating from four reviews.

Verified claims

Recycled Cotton
100% reprocessed cotton from textile waste, backed by Vision program.
Durability
Moss stitch and boxy fit reduce pilling and keep shape on recycled.
Comfort
Buyers report the recycled cotton feels ultra comfortable and soft.
Value
$29.95 for 100% cotton with eco-credentials, a fast-fashion price.
Fit
Short length limits active sport use but suits casual wear, per buyer reviews.
Sizing
The boxy fit is intentionally oversized; sizing down can reduce the oversized look, but it may alter the intended silhouette and fit more snugly through the shoulders.
Texture
The moss-stitch texture can feel bumpy against sensitive skin.
Longevity
Moss stitch resists pilling and hides pills; the boxy cut reduces seam stress; the stripes are knitted into the fabric rather than printed.
Shrinkage
Shrinkage may occur; machine wash cold and lay flat to dry to minimize.
Pilling resistance
Moss-stitch structure resists pilling and hides fuzz, preserving softness.
Breathability
The 100% reprocessed cotton knit is fully natural and breathable.
Sustainability
The cardigan is knit entirely from reprocessed cotton reclaimed from pre- or post-consumer textile waste, with no virgin cotton blended in, and qualifies for Simons' Vision 'Recycled Cotton' badge.

Moss-Stitch Striped Knit Cardigan: Choose this if you want an ultra-comfortable, very soft 100% reprocessed cotton cardigan with a rich moss-stitch texture, thin dark-and-white stripes on a beige ground, a polo collar with three mirror buttons, ribbed edging, and a relaxed boxy fit for lounging or casual outings. Reviewers praise its color and look, but at least two report it runs short—falling to just above the hip—and is too short to wear as a polo, particularly for golf, so consider sizing up if you need more coverage. It is not recommended for golfing or active sports.[1,2]Floral Tapestry Boxy-Fit Cardigan: Choose this if you want a soft, stretch knit cardigan in a blend of forest-conscious LENZING ECOVERO Viscose, with a relaxed boxy fit, dropped shoulders, ribbed trims, and an allover watercolor-style floral tapestry in pale cream, dusty pink, muted green, and rust tones. According to a reviews analysis, wearers reach for it as a lightweight spring layer over a tee on mild days, for dressed-down office days with jeans or slacks, and for all-day comfort while lounging or running errands, with its buttery-soft fabric and non-constricting cut frequently praised. Note that it is positioned as a lightweight layer for mild weather rather than a warm knit.[3,4,5,6,7]Patch Pockets Textured Cardigan: Choose this if you want a polished black cardigan for office or smart-casual outfits, with full-length golden jewel buttons, two front patch pockets, a relaxed crew-neck cut, and a textured cotton-acrylic knit (60% reprocessed cotton, 40% acrylic) in sizes X-Small to X-Large. A reviews analysis reports wearers using it for transitional-weather layering and capsule wardrobes, describing the substantial knit as almost like a light jacket that holds its shape. Note that those impressions come from an analysis of reviews whose original text is unavailable, and the waist-length fit shown is as worn on the model.[8,9,10]

Too short for active wear

★★★★★Mary M.

Nice colour and look but way too short to be used as a golf shirt. I bought three polo shirts from you. This one was a failure from the golf standpoint. I am keeping it because it is ok to wear to barbecues and when doing light errands.
