So soft, not scratchy. This is your ultra-cozy alternative to a classic wool sweater. It’s so luxe and feels like cashmere, but it’s pill-resistant, and you can wash it yourself! We wanted to make a neat, tailored cardigan without losing warmth or loftiness. The elevated yarn is just chunky enough, the silhouette is clean, and the blouson sleeve is refined. This is the sweater to wear with baggy or wide-leg jeans. It won't look too bulky and will create the best silhouette.

"So soft and stylish! This is one of my first Universal Standard pieces, and I’ll be back for more. I took the advice throughout the review to size up for a slouchier fit. The knit has some give, and I think my go-to size could have worked just fine. That said, I am trying out the more over-sized trend, and this works well. Looks great with dress pants, over a dress, and with jeans. Hope to see more colors in the future!"
"I love these sweaters. The material is so soft and the colors are gorgeous. My only complaint is I wish they were a few inches longer!"
"The color and fit are great"
"Around 40% of people cannot tolerate wool. Thank you for using inclusive sweater fabrics that everyone can wear!!"
"I loooooove this sweater. Soft test durable. Wear it all the time. I have it in two colors. The stripes are really cute"
"It’s a great length, short and tailored-looking. It has an expensive-feeling weight, it feels soft and thick, but it’s also breathable. One thing - I bought the deep navy stripe and it’s so dark it looks black at a glance. I like that, but be aware if you need to match a specific shade."
"I've worn the size small in the v-rex tees for years, but after reviewing measurements I purchased a medium with this cardigan. Weird fit overall - length is cropped, fitted in the middle, and sleeves were fitted past the elbow but billowy up top. Almost like the bust provided significantly more room than the rest of the cardigan. I also have to echo other reviews that this is pretty expensive considering the synthetic material. I was looking for a staple black cardigan to wear in the colder months and was disappointed by the fit."
"Loved the fit and feel, very soft. Perfect when you need something cozy and put together my only complaint is the stripe looked white in the photos, not pink."
"Lovely color and very nice fabric. Feels durable and substantial. Cropped silhouette is really nice."
"Some of the photos are so dark it is hard to tell the shape of a sweater before you buy. This one turned out to be more cropped and close fitting than expected. The dark green color goes with most other colors. I will probably go up a size on the next one to get a slouchy fit. But the Better Than Wool fabric is a hit - warm without being bulky and no itch"
