Product Insights
The Djab Washed Cable-Knit Sweater, an exclusive Simons brand designed in Canada, channels '90s skate and hip-hop nostalgia with Korean streetwear influence through its oversized, washed cable-knit aesthetic, priced at 99 CAD and in stock. Prioritizing trend accessibility over premium materials, it delivers superior warmth by trapping still air and blocking wind via the cable knit and oversized fit (true size oversized; sizing down gives a regular fit). The acrylic and knit construction maintains shape retention, while ribbed cuffs and hem prevent stretching, and the colorfastness rating of 4–5 resists fading. The cotton blend offers 8.5% moisture regain for breathable comfort, though acrylic content may cause pilling (manageable with a fabric shaver). The material (60% recycled cotton, 40% acrylic) balances waste diversion with fossil-fuel dependence, and cold care with durable construction extends longevity, reducing waste. The intentionally muted washed orange (a faded terracotta) fits the retro street-style design, and the sale price of $39.95 undercuts most cable-knits with natural fibers, outvaluing synthetics. Care instructions (wash cold, gentle, air dry flat) limit shrinkage and pilling.

- Shape retention
- Acrylic and knit construction keep the oversized fit from sagging.
- Colorfastness

- Color aesthetic

- Care
- Wash cold, gentle, air dry flat — limits shrinkage and pilling.
- Recycled cotton sustainability
- The recycled cotton in the blend gives post-industrial or post-consumer textile waste a second life and lowers the sweater's reliance on virgin cotton farming.
- Breathability vs full-acrylic knits
- Unlike full-acrylic budget knits, the recycled cotton blend adds breathability that helps avoid the static, clammy feel typical of all-acrylic sweaters.
- Oversized fit intention
- Oversized proportions are a core part of Djab's identity, so the exaggerated silhouette is intentional rather than a sizing quirk.
- Pre-shrunk status
- The sweater is not labeled as pre-shrunk, and the cotton content may cause some shrinkage with hot water or high heat drying.

| Washed Cable-Knit Sweater: Choose this if you want an oversized, heavyweight cable-knit crewneck with a dense braided cable pattern, wide ribbed collar, cuffs, and hem, and a washed, slightly heathered texture. It is made of 60% reprocessed cotton and 40% acrylic and comes in an orange/washed peach tone in sizes small through x-large. Note that the relaxed, waist-length fit and slightly chunky look are as shown on a model in a medium, so consider sizing accordingly if you prefer a different drape.[1,2,3,4] | Loose Waffle-Knit Sweater: Choose this if you want an oversized, relaxed layer for casual wear — the loose, boxy cut with dropped shoulders makes it an easy grab-and-go piece for layering with jackets or cozy at-home lounging. It is a midweight waffle knit in 100% recycled cotton with a slight mock neck, ribbed trim at the collar, cuffs, and hem, and understated colorways that reviewers found easy to pair. It comes in sizes small through x-large and five colors, including Black, Off White, Brown, Pine/Bottle Green, and Ochre Yellow.[5,6,7,8] | Oversized Mixed-Knit Sweater: Choose this if you want a bold, vintage-inspired statement piece: a thick, 100% recycled cotton mixed knit with multicolor vertical wave patterns, raised cable-like textures, and ribbed cream trims on an oversized crewneck cut. Reviewers describe the fabric as soft and comfortable for everyday wear, with a Coogi-inspired look that draws compliments at social events. Note that the oversized fit can run too baggy for shorter or petite frames — even in size Small — so consider sizing carefully if you're under average height or slim.[9,10,11,12] |
