- Is it really 100% cashmere?
- Yes. The sweater is listed as 100% cashmere, not a cotton or wool blend. That is the main reason shoppers compare it with far more expensive labels.
- How should I wash it?
- Hand wash cold with a cashmere shampoo and dry flat, or dry clean. Machine washing and tumble drying cause shrinkage and pilling, which owners report.
- Does it pill?
- Some pilling is normal for soft cashmere, and owners do report it. A fabric comb removes pills, and washing less often slows it down.
- How does it fit?
- It is a classic fit, neither oversized nor slim. If you are between sizes or want a roomier layer, size up.
- Is it warm enough for winter?
- It works as a mid-layer in cold weather and on its own in mild cold. For freezing temperatures, most owners wear it under a coat or jacket.
- How does it compare with designer cashmere?
- It is lighter and less densely knit than luxury labels, but it is real cashmere at a fraction of the cost. Expect a softer, thinner fabric rather than a heavy designer hand.
