The verdict
Fit
Same fitted mock-neck cut as ecru and olive; navy is a safe bet that works with most wardrobes.
Quality
Cotton quality identical across the line; navy holds color well and resists fading.
Is the price fair?
GBP 295 is fair for quality cotton knitwear; navy's versatility justifies the mid-tier investment.
Best for
A foundational mock-neck for anyone layering under open shirts or cardigans year-round.
Care
Wash cool with like colors; dry flat to preserve the fitted shape.
What owners report about Drake's sweaters
Owners on Styleforum report the knits holding up to heavy use — one wore a fair isle cashmere piece hard all winter with little to any pilling. The range is knitted by different outside mills, and owners note the specs vary between models, so fit is not consistent across the line: some pieces are reported to run small in the chest and body length while others run large. Price is the recurring gripe — even posters who like the knitwear say the brand tends to overcharge relative to what comparable Scottish-knit pieces cost.
- Strengths
- Durability — owners report seasons of hard wear with minimal pilling on the wool and cashmere knits.
- Watch out for
- Sizing is inconsistent from style to style because different mills knit different models, and several owners consider the line overpriced for what it is.
- Sizing
- Measurements differ between models, so owners advise checking each piece's measurements rather than trusting your usual size — and when in doubt, sizing up.
