Merino Wool Crew Sweater
About Rag & Bone’s sweaters: Rag & Bone is a New York contemporary label — its knitwear runs to merino, cotton and cashmere-blend crews in clean, modern, slightly downtown cuts.
Is the price honest?
Our take
Rag & Bone makes New York contemporary knitwear — merino, cotton and cashmere-blend crews and cardigans in clean, modern cuts with a slightly downtown edge. Owners praise the modern silhouette and the quality knits. Reviewers see it as a premium contemporary knit, with the caveats that the price is high and best value comes on sale. The modern cut and quality fibres are the draw.

How Rag & Bone sweaters hold up overall
Owners and reviewers describe the knitwear line — heavy on 100% cashmere and 100% merino pieces — as soft and comfortable, with fiber content matching what is advertised. Sweaters are widely reported to fit true to size, in contrast to the brand's bottoms, which tend to run small. Care skews toward dry cleaning and full-retail prices are high, though end-of-season sales discount the knits deeply. A minority of longtime forum posters feel knit construction was stronger in the brand's late-2000s pieces than in newer production.
- Strengths
- Soft all-natural-fiber knits (100% cashmere and merino) that fit as labeled.
- Watch out for
- High full-retail prices and mostly dry-clean care; some longtime owners say construction has slipped compared with older pieces, so buying on sale is common advice.
- Sizing
- Sweaters generally fit true to size, unlike the brand's jeans and pants, which run small.
