Compared within this brand.
| Solid-Coloured 100% Merino Wool Polo Sweater: Choose this if you want a lightweight, fine-knit merino layer for autumn and transitional wear — reviewers describe the wool as light yet warm and praise the fabric's look. It's a relaxed-fit, long-sleeve polo sweater in 100% responsibly sourced merino, made with Baruffa extra-fine merino thread spun in Italy, with a four-button placket, ribbed cuffs and hem, offered in sizes X-Small to X-Large and in Grey, Copper/Rust, and Navy/Midnight Blue. Note the knit is finer and thinner than some buyers anticipated — not the pick if you want a substantial cold-weather sweater — and the length runs borderline, so longer torsos may find it sits short untucked.[1,2] | Stretch Solid Polo Sweater: Choose this if you want a polished knit for casual office days, video calls, or smart-casual outings: reviewers report the button collar gives it a put-together look without feeling overdressed, and the soft, comfortable stretch fabric works layered over a tee or under a jacket in transitional weather. It comes in shades like bottle green and khaki, and most reviewers find it true to size with a relaxed, slightly oversized drape—though some size up for extra slouch, and the product photos show a fitted, close-to-body cut on the model.[3,4,5] | Solid Loose Polo Sweater: Choose this if you want an oversized, on-trend polo sweater for streetwear-inspired outfits with skinny jeans or leggings, or for comfort-first lounging and work-from-home days thanks to its soft, unrestrictive fit. Note that reviewers say it runs dramatically large, so expect to size down one or two sizes, and the fabric's synthetic, polyester-like hand may not suit those wanting a natural cotton feel. Also, the brown colorway reportedly arrives much darker than pictured, so other shades like blue are a safer pick for color accuracy.[6] |

Belle couleur !
Le tricot en mérinos est plus fin que je croyais et la longueur est limite . Malgré tout suis quand même contente de l’avoir acheté.
