Relaxed Boxy Stripe Brushed Knitted Zip Through Cardigan | Forest | Size Medium

Product details

Bold vertical stripes run the full length of the body and sleeves, giving the cardigan a strong graphic presence that reads well even at a distance. The open collar sits flat and wide - closer to a revere than a traditional knit collar - adding a retro sporting edge that sets it apart from a standard zip-through. Full-length zip fastening runs through the centre of the stripe pattern, letting you wear it fully open as a layer or zipped up as a standalone piece. Brushed acrylic knit gives the surface a soft, slightly raised texture that holds its shape through the relaxed, boxy silhouette without feeling stiff. The boxy, oversized cut sits wide across the shoulders and drops with a straight hem, wearing loosely through the body without pulling or bunching. The wide collar is the detail that does the most work here - it pulls the whole piece away from standard knitwear territory and into something with a distinctly vintage athletics feel. The stripe scale is generous enough to make a statement without needing anything else going on. Worn zipped up with washed grey denim and clean trainers, as the model demonstrates, it functions as a complete top-half outfit on its own. Leave it open over a plain crew-neck tee when the temperature calls for it and the layering adds depth without bulk. This is a cardigan that suits a casual weekend with mates, a low-key social occasion, or a relaxed evening out - anywhere the dress code is easy but you'd rather not reach for a hoodie. | Relaxed Boxy Stripe Brushed Knitted Zip Through Cardigan | Forest | Size Medium
