ASTRID Shirt-Collar Cardigan Jacket in Merino Wool - Red

ASTRID is a cardigan with a strong personality. Its rich texture and generous collar give it real presence, while still making it easy to wear every day. We love it paired simply with denim, trousers or a skirt, with very little else needed.
It is the kind of knit that naturally becomes the main piece of an outfit.

• Knitted in 100% Spanish merino wool with a textured waffle stitch
• Relaxed, oversized fit with dropped shoulders
• Long sleeves gently gathered at the cuffs
• Shirt-style collar and a 5-button front closure
• Ribbed trims at the cuffs and hem
• Weight for a size M, approx. 1,18kg

Caring for your wool knitwear is simple!

• Wash : Hand wash in cold water using a mild detergent, preferably pH-neutral, avoiding excessive rubbing or twisting. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
• Remove excess water : After washing, gently press the garment to remove excess water without wringing or twisting it.
• Dry : Lay the garment flat to dry, away from direct sunlight. Do not tumble dry.
• Care : If needed, remove creases using a steamer or iron on a low heat setting on the reverse side, avoiding the seams.
• Store : Store your knitwear folded rather than on hangers to help it retain its shape and prevent stretching. To protect it from moths, place a natural moth repellent in your wardrobe.

Investing in a sustainable knitwear item from L'Envers provides significant long-term value compared to fast-fashion alternatives. While fast-fashion pieces may be cheaper initially, they often require frequent replacements due to poor quality. L'Envers items, crafted from high-quality, eco-friendly materials like mulesing-free wool and organic cotton, are designed to last for years, thus reducing their cost per wear and their environmental impact.
At L'Envers, we focus on sustainable practices by knitting on demand in a family-run atelier in Spain, ensuring fair wages and avoiding overproduction. Our durable items offer more wears over time than their fast-fashion alternatives.

Additionally, the way you care for your clothes plays a big role in their longevity. You can find extensive advice on garment care on our website. While very durable, our pieces are not eternal and their natural materials will eventually show signs of time. We believe this adds a je-ne-sais-quoi and is something to celebrate. Eventually, at the end of their lifespan, L'Envers pieces can be repurposed or recycled, leaving no lasting pollution. This makes our timeless knitwear a cost-efficient and eco-friendly investment. Join us in the slow fashion revolution.

We ship worldwide, and you’ll receive tracking information via email once your order leaves our workshop in Spain. Shipping options for your delivery address will be displayed at checkout.

MADE-TO-ORDER : To avoid overproduction and minimize waste, we knit every item after the order is placed. This means the total lead time includes our production timeframe, specified at the top of the page, plus delivery times (typically 5 to 7 working days, depending on the destination and shipping method chosen at checkout).

We’re here to help! We understand it’s not always easy to buy clothing online, especially when ordering from a brand for the first time… We also have a customization service if you’d like a different color from the ones the product is shown in or if you need different dimensions such as body or sleeves length. This is the flexibility of knitting on demand!

Whatever the reason, we'd be more than happy to help you over email at customer@lenversfashion.com or jump on a call to schedule here!

We'll happily answer your questions, assist you with your shopping experience and guide you through the new pieces.
