Stay warm in a classic cardigan knit from pure merino wool. Among the finest of all natural fibers, merino insulates while still breathing exceptionally well—all without itching the way coarser wool can. Our zip-front cardigan pairs well with anything from a T-shirt to a shirt and tie. Soft, durable English Ratcatcher moleskin elbow patches and pocket trim. In charcoal. 100% merino wool. Washable. Imported. Sizes: M(38-40), L(42-44), XL(46-48), XXL(50-52).

"Everything about this sweater is great except the wool pills like something from 1970. Even without wearing it much. Of all the great wool fabrics out there in the 21st century, this is unacceptable."

Worth 1/2,

"Pills form very quickly on wear points: front and inside arms. Fit is roomy for a given size. It has a fairly loose weave, so it is warm in a still room. The elbow patches and pocket trim are a nice accent. I have paid 1/2 of this price for merino sweaters of higher quality."

Not so much.,

"Had to return this sweater. Could not get the zipper to work. It kept getting caught in the fabric lining. Also, my wife told me I looked like grandpa when I had it on. That pretty much did it for me."

Disapppointing,
December 27, 2009

"The sweater arrived as expected with the usual prompt service from Orvis.
Upon opening the package, the sweater, even though carefully packaged, appeared already old. The Orvis label in the inside back of the sweater was poorly attached, and came off on one side within the first week. The wool itself did not seem to be as tightly woven as other sweaters I have.
The fit seems a bit loose, which I attribute to the character of the wool used in the sweater. It looked much better in the catalog and on-line than it does in actuality.
It is warm and comfortable, but, in my opinion, is just not on a par with other Orvis clothing items I have purchased.
