What to look for when shopping for a cashmere sweater
Finding your perfect cashmere sweater will come down to a few main factors:
Material: According to personal stylists Naina Singla and Dacy Gillespie, a sweater made from 100 percent cashmere offers unparalleled softness and warmth. While expensive, this high-quality fabric—which comes from the soft undercoat of cashmere goats found in the harsh climates of Mongolia, China, and Central Asia—is extremely warm and insulating. It’s also likely to last longer than options that are constructed with other materials, adds personal stylist Susan Padron.
Quality: The quality of cashmere is graded from A-C, based on factors like fiber thickness, length, and softness. Singla and Gillepsie recommend looking for Grade A cashmere, which is the highest quality. Aside from grade, feel the material yourself. It should be soft and smooth (not rough and itchy), and it’ll bounce back into shape quickly when stretched. (“Lower-quality cashmere won’t maintain its shape,” says Padron.)
Construction: Look for options constructed with neatly finished, tight stitching—and no loose threads—that won’t easily snag or pull, says Singla. All the options in the list ahead are well constructed, and so long as you follow the manufacturer’s care instructions, will last you a long time.
Style: Cashmere sweaters often come in classic silhouettes (such as crewnecks and V-necks) that transcend seasonal trends, as well as a variety of colors to suit your style preferences. Most of the options on this list are crewneck sweaters, but you’ll also find cashmere-knit cardigans and vests that make for great layering pieces in cold weather.
