Polo Ralph Lauren sweaters: what owners report
Owner reviews of the cotton cable-knits are largely positive — soft, weighty fabric that buyers say meets their expectations for the name. The recurring complaint on menswear forums concerns the wool, wool-cashmere, and entry-level cashmere knits, with longtime owners reporting balling and pilling after only a couple of wears. Several also argue the knits are overpriced at full retail and are best bought on sale.

- Watch out for
- pilling on wool and cashmere-blend knits reported after minimal wear; full retail price widely called too high
