The verdict
Fit
Women's short-sleeve crewneck in lightweight cashmere. Short sleeves paired with lightweight knit create a delicate silhouette; standard fit applies.
Quality
Lightweight cashmere in short-sleeve format. The lighter weight requires finer fiber and more precise knitting; Naadam's reputation is solid here.
Is the price fair?
At $89, this is fairly priced for lightweight 100% cashmere with short sleeves. Good value within the lightweight tier.
Best for
Warm-weather cashmere wear, spring/summer layering, or anyone preferring minimal bulk in their cashmere pieces.
Care
Hand wash cold, dry flat. Lightweight cashmere is delicate; avoid harsh agitation and dry away from direct heat.
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.
