Uses

Weekend casual wear with jeans or clean pants

Based on reported customer reviews, this sweater is used for weekend casual outfits with jeans or clean pants, with its boxy cut and versatile style giving an effortless polished look. Reviewers note it runs large through the body — good if you want an oversized silhouette, though sizing down is suggested for a closer fit. One reviewer also reported the sleeves running long (about 3 to 4 inches past the fingertips), so hemming or a shorter size may be worth considering if you have average-to-short arms.[1]

A classic piece buyers reach for again and again

Some buyers describe this boxy-fit sweater as a timeless piece they find themselves reaching for repeatedly when building a classic wardrobe. Its style is reported to pair well with jeans or clean pants, and it's said to match the product images. These characterizations come from customer reviews as summarized in an analysis, based on a small number of mentions.[1]

Sewn-In Shirt Shaker-Rib Sweater Vest

Contemporaine

simons.ca

Poplin Shirt Overlaid Effect Boxy-Fit Sweater: Choose this if you want a boxy, slightly cropped knit that delivers the layered look of a shirt under a sweater without the bulk, thanks to its crisp poplin shirt collar with three buttons and buttoned poplin cuffs, in a soft, stretch felted knit offered in Grey, Patterned Brown, and Patterned Blue. Reported reviews describe the fabric as soft and high-quality and the versatile color and classic style as working well with jeans or clean pants, though it runs large through the body—size down if you prefer a closer fit—and one reviewer found the sleeves 3 to 4 inches too long, so hemming or a smaller size may be needed. Note that the collar shade can appear darker than in product photos, so an exact color match isn't guaranteed.[1]Sewn-In Shirt Shaker-Rib Sweater Vest: Choose this if you want a relaxed-fit, sleeveless shaker-rib knit vest with a V-neck, buttoned collar and cuffs, and ribbed trims that layers over a collared shirt for a preppy look, as styled in the product images. It is made of a soft knit in 60% reprocessed cotton and 40% acrylic with a 100% cotton poplin component, comes in sizes X-Small through X-Large, and is a Contemporaine by Simons exclusive designed in Canada. Note that the layered shirt shown in photos is styling rather than a confirmed included layer, and the light-ease fit is documented on the model shown rather than across all wearers.[2,3,4,5]

★★★★★Véronique T.

Très beau chandail avec un jean ou un pantalon propre

manches beaucoup trop longues

★★★★★Lucie L.

J'ai retourné le chandail car les manches dépassaient de 3 à 4 pouces le bouts de mes doigts. Le reste du chandail était parfait

The arms are extremely long.

★★★★★Jessica T.

The arms are extremely long. I'm not a short limbed person and these swam way past my palms. I return for this reason. Otherwise, the material was nice and the rest of the fit was good.

Chandail style classique

★★★★★Karen H.

Beau chandail et identique à l’image de description
