Cropped Washed Cardigan
This cropped cardigan from Djab by Simons is a V-neck, front-button knit with a loose, boxy fit and long raglan sleeves. It is crafted from a heavyweight recycled cotton blend that is enzyme-washed for a soft, worn-in texture, and features stretch ribbed edging at the cuffs and hem. Designed in Canada, the cardigan's cropped length and relaxed silhouette make it suitable for layering over button-up shirts or other tops.

Product Insights
The Djab Cropped Washed Cardigan at 89 CAD offers an intentionally faded look—black turns grayish, brown becomes lighter worn-in brown—with the tradeoff that the fading is fixed per colorway, delivering a deliberate worn-in aesthetic.
Verified claims
- Fading per colorway
- Black fades to grayish tone, brown fades to lighter worn-in brown.
- Fit and drape
- The enzyme wash relaxes the heavyweight knit so the cropped, loose fit drapes without stiffness instead of reading boxy.
- Soft hand and pilling
- The enzyme wash smooths the recycled cotton surface and reduces early-stage pilling, giving the cardigan a more refined hand than raw recycled knit would normally have.
- Layering and styling
- The cropped boxy cut gives the cardigan a modern streetwear edge, and leaving one to two inches of the underlayer visible at the hem keeps the cropped proportions looking deliberate rather than awkwardly short.
- Color options
- The cardigan is available in black and brown, and both colorways go through the same enzyme-wash process for a faded look.
- Fade uniformity
- The enzyme process yields a consistent, low-contrast fade across the entire garment, so the black colorway ages into an even charcoal tone instead of developing stark wear lines.
- Eco-conscious finish
- The enzyme wash replaces pumice stone washing with a biodegradable process, eliminating stone-sludge waste and cutting water usage.

Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Cropped Washed Cardigan: Choose this if you want a soft, heavyweight knit in a recycled cotton blend (60% reprocessed cotton, 40% acrylic) with an enzyme-washed finish that gives the fabric a worn-in feel and faded look. It suits a cropped, loose silhouette: a boxy body with dropped shoulders, a deep V-neck, button-front placket, and ribbed hem and cuffs, offered in Black and Brown in sizes LARGE and X-LARGE. Note that the shortened hem sits at or above the waist on the model, so it will not provide longer coverage.[1,2,3,4] | Washed Cable-Knit Sweater: Choose this if you want a heavyweight, oversized crew neck with a dense cable-knit texture, dropped shoulders, and wide ribbed cuffs, collar, and hem. It is made of 60% reprocessed cotton and 40% acrylic, with a slightly heathered, washed look in an orange/tan-camel tone, and comes in sizes small through extra-large.[5,6,7] | Loose Waffle-Knit Sweater: Choose this if you want a relaxed, oversized crewneck in a soft midweight waffle knit made of 100% recycled cotton. Its neutral colorways, ribbed collar and cuffs, and generous grab-and-go cut make it an easy layer for casual jackets or cozy at-home lounging, per reviewers. It comes in five colors (Black, Off White, Brown, Pine/Bottle Green, and Ochre Yellow) in sizes small through extra-large.[8,9] |
