The Røros Collection draws inspiration from Røros, Norway, a historic town known for its harsh winters, rugged landscapes, and traditional craftsmanship.

Unparalleled Comfort & Durability

The Dark Blue Rib Cardigan is crafted from a carefully balanced 55% cotton and 45% acrylic blend, ensuring maximum comfort, durability, and structure.

The NØLSON Dark Blue Rib Cardigan features a regular fit with a comfortable silhouette that allows easy layering. Its structured ribbed fabric follows the body naturally without feeling restrictive, providing enough room for a lightweight T-shirt or shirt underneath. The full-length zipper allows you to adjust the fit and appearance for different occasions.

2. What material is the Dark Blue Rib Cardigan made from?

The NØLSON Dark Blue Rib Cardigan is crafted from a premium blend of 55% cotton and 45% acrylic. Cotton provides softness and natural breathability, while acrylic supports the fabric's durability and shape retention. The ribbed knitted construction adds texture and structure, while the full-length YKK zipper provides a practical and refined finish.

3. How should I care for my Dark Blue Rib Cardigan to keep it looking its best?

To maintain your Dark Blue Rib Cardigan, close the zipper and wash it inside out with similar colours, following the care label instructions. Use a gentle washing cycle when permitted and choose a mild detergent. Avoid excessive heat and tumble drying. Gently reshape the cardigan after washing and lay it flat to dry naturally.

4. How can I style the Dark Blue Rib Cardigan?

The Dark Blue Rib Cardigan is a versatile layering piece for both casual and smart-casual occasions. Wear it open over a white T-shirt with light blue jeans and sneakers for a relaxed look. For the office, combine it with a light blue button-down shirt, beige trousers and brown loafers, keeping the zipper partially closed.

5. Should I fold or hang my Dark Blue Rib Cardigan?

We recommend folding your Dark Blue Rib Cardigan rather than hanging it for extended periods. Its ribbed knitted fabric can gradually stretch under its own weight, particularly around the shoulders. Folding helps preserve the cardigan's original fit and structure. Close the zipper before folding and store it neatly on a shelf or inside a drawer.
