Versatile Piece

I purchased this sweater in size medium, tall because I wanted a bit of oversize fit and to be able to wear it with leggings. The sleeves ended up being a bit long (to my knuckles) but I like the look when I roll them up anyways so this works out well. For reference, I am 5'5" and 150 lb. I think I ...

Hard to button and very scratchy wool ;-(

The fit is great. Unfortunately, the wool is very scratchy and a struggle for buttons to fit through the button hole. It is definitely not the same quality of the older Gap Marino cardigans. I will be returning.

The cardigan is lightweight and thin. It is perfectly oversized for me, but size down if you want a tighter fit. "#sweepstakes"

Comments about Merino Boyfriend Cardigan

Thinner looser weave than other merino wool sweaters I have. The Tuscan red colour (I returned because wasn't a good shade for me) was a thicker nicer wool than the black one that I kept. The hand-feel is not great. Take care washing. I laundered it in cold water on delicate cycle in a mesh bag, with other black delicates, but it came out wrinkled, even after careful air drying on a rack. Re-rinsed delicate/cold, reshaped and smoothed, and it improved somewhat. Sleeves and cuffs are on the snug side. 5'2" 105lbs regular size XS fits.

Comments about Merino Boyfriend Cardigan

Nice but it's even longer and over sized than I thought, I probably should have sized down from my normal size.

A great basic in an of-the-moment slouchy fit

Comments about Merino Boyfriend Cardigan

I love Gap's and BR's merino pieces and add new pieces to my wardrobe every fall. This year they run about a size larger than usual, in keeping with the oversized look that is in style. I bought this cardigan and the matching merino turtlenecks and crewnecks in every colour this year (love the Rose Pewter Pink which is a beige/taupe colour and the Tuscan Red!) and the to update my look with this roomier fit. My stats: 34D-28-38, 124 lbs with narrow shoulders and purchased my usual size for Gap knits: PXS. It fit me like on the model. I wish Gap made a PXXS so that my daughter could become a life-time customer as well. Vanity sizing is at play with Gap tops and sweaters. #sweepstakes

I own three of these in different colors. Looks great with a button down. Pills easily though…

Runs slightly large-but wonderfully thin and hangs really nicely.
