Marks and Spencer shoppers are praising the retailer's new Fair Isle Crew Neck Relaxed Jumper, priced at £34, as a 'perfect' addition for colder weather. The jumper, available in sizes extra small to extra large, has drawn largely positive reviews from customers who say it fits true to size.
Shoppers praise comfort and design
One customer said: "Great quality and lovely design, can't wait to wear with jeans this winter." Another commented: "Beautiful soft feel jumper comfortable for all day wear smart casual." A third reviewer wrote: "Love the colour palette for a different Christmas jumper. Sleeves are a bit large but kept it as I liked the jumper."
A fourth shopper added: "It's just so comfy and warm, perfect for the cooler weather, love it." Another described it as "Lovely and soft and a great fit. Looks smart for an evening out with the nice puffed sleeves but also good too for a casual look with jeans."
Some shoppers report itchiness and pilling
Despite the positive feedback, a few customers have noted drawbacks. One reviewer said: "I've been looking for a Fair Isle jumper like this for a long time. I love the design, and it's cosy and warm. It's a bit scratchy at the neckline but hasn't stopped me from wearing it. My only real gripe is that it's pilling already and I haven't even washed it yet. It's why it got 4 stars from me."
Another customer commented: "Nice cosy jumper. Slightly itchy wool but not as bad as some. Fine if you put a T-shirt under."
