Really happy with the quality of this sweater. It's thick, cozy, and well made (no pilling or loose threads). The colour is a beautiful burgundy shade that's easy to style with light or dark pants.

A classic sweater in a pop of colour. Sizing is good. Warm and cozy, perfect for these cold winter days. Very pleased with this purchase.

So comfy and warm! Material is soft on my skin and a perfect hug on a cold day.

Love it: stylish looking and good quality. Merino wool should be like this; I don't think it is the fabric issue.

This sweater was beautiful for the first two weeks I wore it. It has pilled like CRAZY, no matter how much I use a comb to fix it, it'll pill again and worse. It's so ugly and worn looking now I can't even wear it. I've only had it for 3 months. Disappointing! Last time I'll purchase a knit from BR

Love everything about this turtleneck sweater! Love the oversized fit and high neck. Colour is stunning!

I never write reviews but the quality and wear of this compelled me to. I love almost everything about this sweater, the size, shape and weight, enough so that I got it in 2 sizes, both on sale. Except the fabric is one of the worst I've seen. I had a feeling when I first felt and saw it that it might pill, because there were already a few pills coming out of the box. I tried it on once, with different pants and coats to see if it would fit me well. I checked to see if there were any issues and you can see in the photos how insane the pilling is in the photos. There was hardly any friction from trying on coats and yet this is the result. The argument that it's because it's synthetic fabric is incorrect, as I have other poly/poly blend sweaters from BR, Gap, Old Navy that have lasted YEARS (this is wool/nylon blend). I wanted to keep them even after the pilling I love the style so much, but I ended up returning both. Unless you're ok with having a completely pilled sweater, I recommend returning it!

I was hesitant to leave this review. The sweater is beautiful. My review is more about service than the product. I received a Banana Republic gift card for Christmas. I used it to purchase this sweater. When I received the sweater it was from the return center. I thought I was purchasing a brand new sweater. It was just wrapped in tissue and put in a shipping bag. When I opened it there was cat hair on the sweater (I am allergic). I immediately began to sneeze, nose running, eyes turn red, throat tightness. I am waiting on a shipping label to return it. I had to take pictures of the sweater and submit it. I had to remove the sweater from my home and have my home cleaned. I am so disappointed. This is my first problem with BR. Hopefully it will be resolved soon. I will go to the store to make future purchases.

So disappointed in this sweaters quality. I love it except for the constant static that is impossible to get rid of. Not sure if it's due to an inferior product. It also pills and sheds badly. I feel like for the $ it should be better quality. Shame.
