A vertical-rib knit sweater with a small V polo collar, cut micro-relaxed and offered in M–3XL. The only independent buyer evidence is one r/DesignerReps report: a medium wearer found medium true to size and rated the in-hand quality favorably. Ask the seller for flat measurements before ordering.

Pros
- · Small V polo collar and vertical rib knit are the stated design points, aimed at a dressier casual look
- · Catalog lists a micro-relaxed, semi-slim cut meant to avoid both tightness and bulk
- · One r/DesignerReps buyer who normally wears medium said the medium fit well
- · The same buyer rated the in-hand quality of the sweater favorably
Cons
- · Only one independent buyer report covers this sweater line; quality and fit claims rest on that single source
- · The catalog's anti-pilling, anti-sagging yarn claim runs against knitwear discussions noting that wool and cashmere sweaters pill eventually
- · Burberry knitwear fit reports disagree — one guide says size up, a cardigan reviewer chose the smaller size, and a hoodie reviewer found the piece slightly big
- · Category-level, not this knit: a Burberry outerwear buyer reported poor stitching and felt the brand had cut corners
Fit notes
Offered in M–3XL. The one buyer report here used medium for a medium wearer. Broader Burberry guidance is mixed: one sizing guide recommends sizing up for broad shoulders or bust, a cardigan reviewer sized down, and a knit hoodie reviewer found it slightly big. Confirm measurements.
Buy if
You want a polo-collar knit for commuting or light business wear and fit the catalog's micro-relaxed, semi-slim cut. One buyer who normally wears medium found medium true to size, so ordering after confirming flat measurements is the practical route.
Skip if
You need extra room across the shoulders or bust, since one Burberry sizing guide reports the brand runs small against US sizing and recommends sizing up. You also want more than a single independent report before committing.

Buying FAQ
Common questions
Does this sweater run true to size?⌄
The single buyer report available said a medium fit a medium wearer well. Other Burberry knitwear reports point in different directions, so treat the size chart as unconfirmed until you see flat measurements.
Will it pill or stretch out?⌄
The catalog describes an anti-deformation yarn that resists pilling and sagging, but knitwear-focused discussion notes that wool and cashmere sweaters pill eventually, so that catalog claim is not independently verified.
What sizes are available?⌄
The listing covers M, L, XL, 2XL and 3XL.
What should I check before ordering?⌄
Ask the seller for flat measurements — chest, shoulder, sleeve and body length — and compare them with a knit you already own, since Burberry knitwear fit reports conflict.
