The verdict
Fit
Menswear sweater in a likely relaxed or regular cut, typical of The Row's understated approach. Standard sizing should fit true; layers well over shirts.
Quality
The Row's menswear knitwear is constructed with the same rigor as womenswear. Expect stable seams, even stitching, and durability through regular wear.
Is the price fair?
At $910, mid-premium for a fundamental menswear sweater. The price reflects The Row's design and construction, not yarn novelty.
Best for
Menswear minimalists layering or wearing standalone; a sweater that reads as quietly well-made and pairs with everything neutral.
Care
Hand wash or delicate cycle in cool water; dry flat to maintain shape.
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.
