What owners report about A.P.C. sweaters
Renter and owner reviews of specific styles in the line describe the wool as genuinely substantial rather than a thin blend — 'great quality and design and actually wool,' as one put it — with a stiffer, structured hand that several called warm for its weight. The most repeated complaint is itchiness against bare skin, coming up across multiple reviews, along with mild pilling and lint pickup with regular wear. Fit varies by style: one runs boxy and oversized through the body, another runs small in the waist and length.
- Strengths
- The wool itself is repeatedly described as substantial and genuinely warm rather than a thin performance blend.
- Watch out for
- Itchiness against the skin is the most repeated complaint, along with mild pilling and lint pickup after regular wear.
- Sizing
- Fit is inconsistent across styles in the line — one runs boxy and large through the body, another runs small in the waist and length — so check the specific style's fit notes rather than assuming true-to-size.
