The verdict
Fit
Polo collars on cashmere sit neat and structured; short sleeves suggest a summer-weight or layering piece. Crochet details add texture but can limit pairing options.
Quality
Cashmere polos at 147 USD are typically mid-gauge. Crochet detailing is hand-finished in most quality brands, so expect seam integrity but watch for pulls.
Is the price fair?
Premium pricing for novelty. A plain cashmere polo costs roughly the same; the crochet is a fashion tax.
Best for
Styled dressers who enjoy statement knitwear and have outfits planned around textural details.
Care
Crochet cashmere requires careful hand-washing; delicate stitchwork can snag if dried in a dryer.
What owners report about Naadam sweaters
Reviewers consistently describe Naadam's cashmere sweaters as soft straight out of the box, and the brand's low-pilling claim largely holds up in independent wear testing — one reviewer who wore the sweaters for six days straight found only a few pills, which came off with a cashmere comb. Owners say the knits don't feel fragile after regular wear. The recurring complaints target the buying experience rather than the sweaters themselves: returns aren't free when ordering direct, and customers report slow customer-service responses when processing them.
- Strengths
- Cashmere that owners report is soft from the first wear and genuinely slow to pill at a mid-range price.
- Watch out for
- Complaints cluster around returns — a fee when ordering direct plus slow customer-service responses — rather than the knitwear itself.
- Sizing
- Fit reports are mostly true to size with a slim cut, though on some styles the brand itself recommends sizing up.
