Heritage cotton shaker-stitch crewneck sweater in stripe
here again, knit in a dense cotton that's simultaneously sturdy and breathable. Inspired by our vintage catalogs, we've adopted the name "heritage cotton" for this particular fabric. It's easy to wear, comfortable and looks good with just about everything; the compact knit has a dry handfeel and just the right amount of structure. This sweater uses a shaker stitch, which is a light, airy stitch with a bit more give than other traditional knitting methods.

Great construction, lots of compliments
May 22, 2023The white/blue pattern is fantastic! Quality knitting, with almost a posh appearance. Plenty of complements. It is a bit oversized, but I think that as part of the design, it's roomy. I hope to see J Crew keep up with the quality of this knit. I normally wear a slim medium in J Crew's casual oxfords, the large was great in this knit.

ridiculously oversized
November 23, 2022This had potential to be a favorite. Excellent color, weight, texture. Terrible sizing. It’s so ridiculously oversized, I cannot wear it. Total waste of money considering I cannot return it. On top of that it took over two weeks to receive it with “expedited” shipping. That was after several customer service calls attempting to track it down. Terribly disappointed.

This is a men’s sweater
October 28, 2022This is listed as women’s but it’s a men’s. I am normally a size 6 women’s, size small in woman’s tops. I got a medium thinking it was a women’s and would be a little oversized and comfy. Alas, it is definitely a men’s with very long sleeves and a very long body. Bulky and not a good fit. I will say it’s super soft, thick, and warm.

Classic, Well Made and Warm!
October 15, 2022It’s thick and well constructed. I live in Florida and I was thinking since it’s cotton & described as an open weave I might get to wear it here often this winter. Turns out, it’s pretty heavy and will be better for traveling to colder spots. Because it’s classic, I know I’ll have it probably forever. (Great value on sale) For sizing, it’s unisex so I wasn’t quite sure what to order. I’m a size 10/12, med or large in J Crew. I went with a medium. It fits TTS, not slouchy. If you’d prefer a looser, slouchy look, consider sizing up.
