Corpus Italian Wool Cardigans


ProductDose.com beat me to the punch with it's review of the new Corpus cardi ($175) so I'm going to steal from them.

"When I was in 10th, I asked my step-mother to buy me a $75 cardigan, which she did. My girlfriend at the time proceeded to make fun of me for a week for having been involved in spending so much on an item that didn't look much different than the $4 thrift store versions she wore. Whatever lesson I learned is now long lost, as the days of the decent $4 thrift store sweater are largely gone. We've now found ourselves at time when a $175 cardigan is not uncommon. Of course, cardigan styling has come a long way, as displayed by this Corpus Mint Cardigan. The quirky mint/charcoal color mix is complemented by unique details like buttons at the cuffs, exterior (hoody-like) front pockets, a slim cut, five buttons up the front, and 100% wool. Expensive? Sure. But I never saw anything like this when I was in high school.

The color is actually mint and olive which in combination tones down the pastel and creates the magic color that can be worn any season. In addition to this combination we have red and charcoal. Sizes XS (for the ladies) to XL.

The Corpus guys are wearing this sweater with their skinny Stick suspender jean in black or the Tal-S selvedge suspender jean in indigo, slouchy around the ankles with slim slip-on canvas shoes or Capezio style shoes.
