Our sweaters are designed for a relaxed, comfortable fit. They run true to size. When in doubt, size up — our knitwear is meant to be worn comfortably, not tight. See our Size Guide for measurements.

Our cotton sweaters may shrink slightly if machine dried on high heat. We recommend tumble dry low or lay flat to dry. Wool items should be laid flat to dry only — never tumble dry. See our Care Guide for details.

Cotton: Machine wash cold, gentle cycle. Tumble dry low or lay flat.
Wool: Hand wash cold or dry clean. Lay flat to dry only.
