Check price on Amazon Opens Amazon.com · affiliate link

A chunky pullover with a high stand up collar, a half zip and a relaxed, oversized fit. The listing describes a medium thick knit that sits just above the hips, meant for cool mornings, office days and slow evenings at home.

The fabric is a blend, and the percentages are worth reading. The listing gives 50% recycled polyester, 15% viscose, 13% nylon, 13% acrylic, 6% wool and 3% spandex. Wool makes up a small share, so most of the content is polyester, viscose, nylon and acrylic. The listing calls the knit medium thick and says it holds heat and keeps its shape, but it gives no weight in grams and no warmth rating.

The cut is oversized and relaxed, with a knitted texture, a stand up collar and a half zip that ends just above the hips. The listing says the zipper is an EasyGala custom one that glides smoothly. A high neck gives extra coverage at the throat, which matters on a chilly walk to the bus. For layering, the listing suggests a thin white tee underneath with a little of the edge showing at the collar, then skinny jeans, wide leg trousers, a pencil skirt, biker shorts or sweatpants below. Which of those you like is a matter of taste.

Care is simple on paper: machine wash inside a laundry bag, or hand wash. The listing says the bag reduces friction and helps prevent pilling. It does not state sizes, measurements or length in inches, so check the sizing details before ordering. It is imported, and it also comes in brown, off white and black.
