The verdict
Fit
Expect a clean, close fit through the shoulders with structured armholes. Sizing typically runs true to label; try a size up if you prefer a relaxed drape.
Quality
The Row delivers consistent, high-quality construction across its sweater line. This weight and price point suggests a substantial knit designed for multiple years of regular wear.
Is the price fair?
At 780 USD, this is firmly in The Row's standard sweater pricing. Fair for the brand's reputation and durability, though steep if budget-conscious.
Best for
A minimalist dresser building a neutral foundation in quality basics that won't pill or lose shape.
Care
Hand wash in cool water and dry flat; avoid the dryer to keep the yarn intact.
What owners report about The Row sweaters
Owners describe The Row's cashmere as unusually dense and heavy compared with other knits they own — one reviewer reports her sweater is thicker than every other cashmere piece in her closet and warm even as a short-sleeve style. Reviewers consistently call the quality exceptional, but value is the sticking point: retail runs around $1,000 per sweater, and one reviewer returned hers because the fit ran too oversized and the quality gap over much cheaper knits didn't justify the price. The same owners caution that quality is not uniform across the line — it varies by style.
- Strengths
- Reviewers report noticeably thick, dense cashmere that outclasses most other knits they own in hand-feel and warmth.
- Watch out for
- Reviewers repeatedly question the roughly $1,000 price — several say the quality edge over cheaper knits is too small to justify it — and note quality varies from style to style.
- Sizing
- Owners report fit skews oversized on some styles and differs between cuts (crew necks fit differently from other shapes), so they advise checking measurements per piece rather than assuming one size.
