What owners report about Norse Projects sweaters
Owners on menswear forums rate Norse Projects' lambswool and merino sweaters among the brand's strongest categories, with several reporting pieces that have held up well over many years of wear. Long-term owners describe the knitwear as a highlight of the range and say repeat purchases have been consistent. The recurring caveat is price: multiple owners say full retail feels steep for a basic crewneck and report buying on sale or secondhand instead, describing the range as pick-and-choose rather than uniformly worth it.
- Strengths
- Owners repeatedly report the wool sweaters holding up over years of wear, with some citing pieces a decade old still in rotation.
- Watch out for
- Full-price value is the recurring complaint — owners call the basic crewnecks nothing special at retail and advise waiting for sales or buying secondhand.
