- Is this sweater warm enough for winter?
- It is a mid-weight cotton knit, so it works indoors and in mild weather. For real cold, layer it over a shirt or under a jacket; wool will be warmer on its own.
- How should I wash it?
- Cotton knits generally tolerate cool machine washing on a gentle cycle, but hand washing and flat drying best protect the shape. Avoid hanging it wet, which stretches the shoulders.
- Does it fit true to size?
- Rodd & Gunn cuts tend to run close to standard US sizing with a trimmer, tailored fit. If you want room to layer a shirt underneath, consider sizing up.
- What is it made of?
- It is a knitted cotton pullover, not a wool or synthetic blend. That means it breathes well and resists pilling from wool friction, but has less natural stretch.
- Can I wear it with a tie?
- Yes. A crew-neck knit over a collared shirt and tie is a standard smart-casual look. Keep the shirt collar neat and the sweater fitted so it does not bunch.
- How does it compare with a wool crew neck?
- Cotton is softer, washable and less prone to itch, while wool is warmer and holds its shape longer. Choose cotton for easy care and indoor wear, wool for cold outdoor days.
