What owners report about John Elliott sweaters
Community reference threads treat John Elliott's wool knit sweaters as running true to size, with buyers advised to take their normal size for a regular fit. The line is built around merino and other wool knits, and the crewneck styles are generally cut close to the body with a slight drop shoulder. Owners note that the intentionally oversized or cropped styles are the exception, where sizing down one is the common advice for a more fitted look.
- Strengths

- Sizing
- Standard wool sweaters and crews fit true to size; only the deliberately oversized or cropped styles warrant sizing down one.
