Verified claims

material
100% wool, medium-gauge knit with a lofty, woolly hand
fit
Relaxed, boxy fit; size 2 is roughly US 4–6 with a 55 cm body length
comfort
Moderate softness; sensitive skin may notice the wool at the neckline
construction
Cap sleeves continue into one long connected knit section that joins both sides, with no armhole closure
styling
Wear as a sweater, wrap the connected sleeves around the neck like a stole, or drape them over the shoulders
drape
Wool's crimp and elasticity give the knit fluid drape and shape recovery
ribbing
Ribbed edging adds durability and shape stability at high-wear edges
care
Dry clean only; do not wash, bleach or tumble dry; line dry and use a pressing cloth when ironing
felting
Washing or tumble drying risks irreversible felting and shrinkage
maintenance
Airing between wears keeps it fresh; wool resists odours, wrinkles and stains
thermoregulation
Wool's moisture buffering helps regulate temperature across activity and rest
durability
Wool's springy structure resists compression and recovers shape, supporting durability
color
Warm off-white cream with a V-neck, ribbed edging and a draped front panel
uses
Works as a layering piece for transitional weather, travel and creative day-to-night styling
tradeoffs
No fasteners mean readjustment; wool may feel textured on sensitive skin; care is dry-clean only; wide arm openings can expose the sides
value
At 695 CAD, the value lies in the made-in-Japan 100% wool knit and the convertible modular design
craftsmanship
Made in Japan with Issey Miyake's technical knit expertise
comparison
Unlike a standard wool pullover, this is a convertible knit; its wool is loftier than fine merino
variant
Offered in one variant: size 2, off-white
blocking
Wool's ability to be blocked allows smoothing wrinkles and reshaping
mobility
The boxy, wide-armhole cut allows easy arm movement but adds underarm fabric drape

O Knit Pure Wool Sweater: Choose this if you want a versatile 100% wool knit with Issey Miyake's modular design: beyond its cap sleeves, continuous connected sleeves can be wrapped around the neck like a stole or draped over the shoulders. It suits shoppers drawn to a relaxed, slightly boxy silhouette with a V-neck, fine even knit, and wide ribbed trims, in an off-white/cream color made in Japan. Note it cannot be machine washed—care calls for dry cleaning or mild professional wet-cleaning instead.[1,2,3,4]Flat Seams Fine-Knit Turtleneck Top: Choose this if you want a sleek, close-fitting fine-knit turtleneck with a minimalist look: it comes in Off White with a high, snugly fitted turtleneck collar, very short cap sleeves, and flat, nearly flush seams described by the brand as being for maximum comfort. The stretch cotton-nylon blend knit fits closely through the chest and waist with a straight hem at the hips, so it suits those who prefer a fitted silhouette. Note this listing covers the size 2 variant, and the close fit means sizing and body shape will affect how the waist and hem sit.[5,6,7]Concealed Knit Asymmetrical Sheer Top: Choose this if you want a sculptural, fluid knit with an artistic asymmetrical look — it is crafted from two square knit panels with a boat neck, short asymmetric sleeves, and a draped sheer panel that hangs past the hem. Its lyocell and nylon blend (75% lyocell, 25% nylon) gives a soft, semi-sheer fabric with moderate drape, so plan to layer it over an underlayer, as photos show undergarments visible through the translucent knit. Note that it requires gentle care — hand wash cold or dry clean only, laid flat to dry — and this listing covers the size 2 Indigo/Dark Blue variant, made in Japan.[8,9,10,11,12]
