About Reigning Champ’s sweaters: Reigning Champ is a Canadian heavyweight-basics label — its knitwear pairs premium cotton and wool blends with the same elevated, gym-to-street construction as its fleece.

Price check

Premium at $160 for an elevated, well-constructed knit. Reviewers say you pay for the build and clean aesthetic, in line with the brand's other premium basics.

Our take

Reigning Champ extends its elevated-basics ethos from fleece into knitwear — premium cotton and wool-blend crews built with the brand's signature attention to construction. Owners praise the substantial feel and the clean, athletic-leaning cut. Reviewers rate it a premium everyday knit, with the caveats that the price is high and the minimalist aesthetic offers little visual variety. The construction quality and clean lines are the draw.

How Reigning Champ sweaters hold up overall

In-depth reviews of the brand all cover its cotton fleece, where construction gets consistent praise — the knit cardigan line itself has almost no dedicated third-party coverage. The few owners who mention it are positive: one names the merino rib shawl cardigan a favorite, describing it as thick and cuddly. Separately, one owner advises checking the made-in label before buying, saying some production has recently moved overseas.

Strengths
What little owner commentary exists praises the heavier merino knits for warmth and substance, against a brand-wide reputation for solid stitching and construction.
Watch out for
Dedicated coverage of the knit line is close to nonexistent, and one owner cautions that not everything is made in Canada anymore — check the label.
