Men's Plus Size Button Up Long Sleeve Cardigan — Fit & Details

How to measure

Use a soft measuring tape and measure over light clothing. Record measurements in inches or centimeters and compare them to the garment (flat) measurements or the size chart. If you’re between sizes or plan to layer, choose the larger size.

Measure your body (for best fit)

1. Chest: Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your chest, under the armpits and across the shoulder blades. Keep the tape level. This is your body chest measurement.
2. Shoulder width: Measure from the tip of one shoulder across the back to the tip of the other shoulder (where a shirt’s shoulder seam would sit).
3. Sleeve length: Measure from the center back of your neck, over the top of the shoulder and down to the wrist bone with your arm slightly bent. This is the sleeve length for shirts and cardigans.
4. Back length (HPS to hem): Measure from the highest point of the shoulder (center back at the base of the neck—HPS) straight down to where you want the cardigan to end.
5. Hip: Measure around the fullest part of your hips if you want the cardigan to fit comfortably over the lower torso.

Measure a similar cardigan (garment measurements — recommended)

1. Lay the cardigan flat on a hard surface and button it up without stretching.
2. Chest (pit-to-pit): Measure 1" (2.5 cm) below the armpit seam from one side to the other; double that value for the full circumference.
3. Shoulder seam: Measure across the back from shoulder seam to shoulder seam.
4. Sleeve: Measure from the shoulder seam to the end of the cuff.
5. Back length: Measure from the center back neckline (HPS) down to the hem.
6. Hem width: Measure across the bottom hem and double for full circumference.

Fit guide: For a comfortable, layered fit allow 2–4" (5–10 cm) of ease over your body chest measurement. For an oversized look allow 4–6" (10–15 cm). If you’re between sizes, choose the larger size.

Materials

Fabric composition (typical): Premium blended knit—approximately 55% cotton, 45% acrylic. (Exact composition may vary by color; check the garment label for specifics.)

• Feel: Soft, breathable cotton face with acrylic for durability, colorfastness and shape retention.
• Weight: Midweight knit suitable for year‑round layering.
• Construction: Button‑up front, ribbed cuffs and hem for structure, reinforced shoulder seams to reduce stretch.
• Hardware: Durable resin or matching-tone buttons.
• Performance: Moderate stretch for comfort, good recovery, low‑to‑moderate tendency to pill (see care tips).

Care Guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Turn the cardigan inside out before washing to protect the surface.
• Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with like colors; use mild detergent. Avoid bleach and harsh detergents.
• Place in a mesh laundry bag for extra protection if washing with other items.
• Reshape while damp and lay flat to dry to preserve shape and prevent stretching. Avoid hanging wet garments.
• If you must tumble dry, use low heat and remove promptly—lay flat to finish drying and reshape.
• Iron on low heat if needed; use a pressing cloth and avoid direct heat on buttons.
• To remove pilling, use a fabric shaver or sweater comb gently. Don’t pull pills by hand.
• Store folded rather than on a hanger to avoid shoulder distortion. If hanging, use wide or padded hangers.
• Repair loose buttons promptly and trim loose threads carefully.

Style Tips

• Casual: Wear open over a crewneck tee with straight-leg jeans and sneakers for an effortless everyday look.
• Smart-casual: Button up over an Oxford or chambray shirt and pair with chinos and leather boots or loafers.
• Layered cold-weather look: Use this cardigan as a mid-layer over a thin sweater or turtleneck, then add a wool coat on top.
• Proportion: Because the cardigan has a longer silhouette, balance the look with more tapered or straight-fit trousers to avoid adding bulk.
• Colors: Neutral cardigans (navy, gray, black) pair easily with denim, khaki or charcoal. For a bolder look, contrast a deep color cardigan with lighter shirts and trousers.
• Accessories: Add a scarf, leather belt and a watch to elevate the outfit. Keep patterns simple for clean, streamlined styling.
• Buttoning tips: When layering over thicker items, leave the cardigan open or fasten only the middle buttons to avoid pull at the seams.
