Sestriere Merino Cable Half-Zip

Bought the grey for my father, then went back for a navy one for myself.

No pilling under the arms after three weeks of daily wear. My last one was bobbled by week two.

The rollneck isn't tight on the throat, which was my worry. Folds down neatly.

Sleeves run a touch long on me. I fold the cuff once and it looks intentional.

Wore it on a flight from Amsterdam to Lisbon and arrived without looking slept in.

Warm enough for the walk to the office in October without a coat.

My partner keeps borrowing it, which says more than any review.

Exactly the weight I wanted. Not a heavy winter knit, not a thin office one.

Cuffs and hem keep their rib after washing.

The colour is a shade warmer in daylight than on my screen. I like it more, to be honest.

Gift for my brother's 40th. He has worn it every weekend since.

Zip runs smoothly and the pull doesn't dig into the chin.

I'm broad in the chest and the L doesn't pull across the front.

Over a shirt for dinner, under a coat for the stadium. Same jumper, right both times.

Soft straight out of the parcel. No smell, no stiffness.

Fourth knit from this shop. Sizing has been consistent every time.

Holds its shape on the hanger. No shoulder bumps.

Took eight days to Stockholm, a bit slower than I hoped. The sweater was worth it.

Good with jeans, good with grey flannels. That covers most of my week.

Light enough to pack two in a cabin bag.

The knit is dense. Hold it up to a window and no light comes through.

My wife ordered it as a surprise and got the size right from the guide.

Bought it in October, wore it most of November. Still looks new.

The neck keeps its shape after a day under a coat.

Ordered navy and charcoal. The navy is darker than I expected, in a good way.

Fits well over a collared shirt without bunching at the cuffs.

Arms a little long for me. My tailor took them up for twenty euros.

Warmer than my old lambswool and half the weight.

Wore it to the office and to the pub on the same day.

My wife says it's the first jumper of mine she actually likes.

Good length in the body, doesn't ride up when I sit.

Hand washed it once and laid it flat. Came back perfect.

Ordered an M after checking the guide and it fits exactly.

Bought a second one in grey within a week.

Lovely knit. The parcel took a day longer than the estimate.

Doesn't itch on bare forearms with the sleeves pushed up.

Light enough for a train carriage, warm enough on the platform.

Exactly the colour on the site. No surprises.

Comfortable all day at a desk without feeling stuffy.

Wore it hiking in the Highlands under a shell. Kept me warm on the ridge.
