Not worth buying
Size: Small, Color: Light Blue
Cheap material, stitching looks cheap, and the collar is way too big, almost like it’s a wrong cut. It doesn’t look good at all. Decide it to throw away in the trash right away. It’s a $25 mistake.

Pullover is soft and comfortable. Too soon to comment on shrinkage but quality seems to be good. Not heavy duty but good quality.
