All-Season Waffle Knit

This was the nicest sweater I have ever purchased! It fit perfectly, sleeves were long but not too long and easy to push up! I wore it with a T-shirt and it was perfect temperature for traveling weather! It also looks cute draped over shoulders with the sleeves cuffed together. It felt soft from the start and I enjoyed wearing it every day! I think the color and style have lots of possibilities.. I wore it with jeans, leggings and shorts….but could see wearing with a skirt or even a dress! It will be in my travel bag from now on!
I’ll recommend the sweater to all of my friends..it’s a great addition to everyone’s closet!

I was looking for a sweater that can be used in multiple climates, packs well, and is soft and non-itchy. The waffle knit sweater checked all the boxes! Super comfortable and I haven't wanted to take it off!

This is a preliminary review. I ordered two of the all season waffle knit sweaters. I ordered a M for myself and a XL for my husband. Since it's unisex sizes, I was afraid the M would be too large for me. It fit perfect and felt wonderful. My husband's was way too tight for him--he has gained a lot around the middle so I'm not surprised. He also liked the feel of it. So we decided we'd reorder an XXL for him. Our daughter and son-in-law stopped by as we were packing up the XL to ship back. He wears an X usually but I felt the XL would fit him and it was a perfect fit for him. They're leaving in two weeks for Iceland so I gave it to him. When I ordered another for my husband, I also ordered an XS for my daughter since her husband got one . . . and then I ordered the emerald blue crew neck for me because I love that color. My husband and I are heading to Romania in October and plan to just take carry on bags. I ordered these sweaters for the trip and will report back after--and may do one of the challenges on the trip.

The first thing I noticed about my sweater was how soft it was. Upon putting it on it felt extremely cozy. Not hot, not cold, but just right. I didn't notice any tightness anywhere and it fit me well. The green color got me a lot of compliments too, as I sent a picture to anyone that cared to see. I've since worn the sweater whenever I wanted to feel cozy, and maybe that's what it will be, at least until cooler temperatures return and it becomes socially acceptable to be outside in a sweater.

I was looking for something that is sustainable, warm, and would last me through hiking, camping, and just being at home where no matter what temperature it is outside, I'm always cold (especially when I'm working in my downstairs office). I'm working on cutting down my wardrobe and buying pieces that can go with a lot of different outfits. I've already been able to get rid of 6 other sweaters that aren't nearly as nice as this one. I recently went camping down to the Grand-Staircase Escalante area in southern Utah and didn't even have to wash my sweater when I got home. It still smells clean, even after some light hiking and being around campfires. The sweater is super soft (even softer after wearing a few times), I love the neutral undyed color, and I can wear it with everything. I'll definitely be buying one or two more sweaters from Oliver Charles!

My husband says it’s the color of my eyes. I have worn it with a skirt and with overalls. I’m making it part of my summer go-to as it is nice for entering into icy air conditioning, and cooling enough for a walk outside, even in the sun; perfect for evening walk with the dog. I’m sure it will become a life-long friend. My husband wants one, and thinks we should get them for our daughters (so they don’t “accidentally” take it home with them.) The natural fibers are just what the doctor ordered after too many years in polyester.

I got the "natural" color which seems like it will go with anything. I was debating between XXS and XS, My measurements fit the XXS but I got the XS because I don't like tight-fitting clothes. I made the correct choice. The fit is perfect. It is great for the weather here in San Francisco, which is often cool. I am also going to take it when I travel. Thanks, OC!

The All Season Waffle Knit (undyed) is an amazing, versatile sweater! My initial concerns were that it would be too warm or too itchy for daily wear - in particular, because I have MS and skin sensitivity is a major issue. The sweater proved to be incredibly soft and temperature regulating, and the week I wore it was one of the few times I haven't been freezing cold in my home office! It was actually a delight to wear it 7 days straight because it dressed up and down nicely, through both day and night functions. The cherry on top - I received a lot of compliments about the sweater itself. I am definitely going to buy another All Season Waffle Knit in another color!

When considering bringing a new piece into my small wardrobe, I typically read every review, research its versatility, longevity and sustainability. I tend to be very picky and have a high expectation for any piece of clothing I invest in. I was excited about the sustainability of Oliver Charles. both in their natural, innovative fibers, but also in their zero waste process. However, I was not sure how it would hold up to my mom-life, which is full of spills, sticky hands, sweaty momma, snuggles and varied life activities. I also care about pieces being lovely and timeless and easy to style in many ways. I wore my sweater for 7-days straight and found that it ticked all the boxes! It worked beautifully with various pants styles (from linen trousers and jeans to overalls), it was easy to spot clean and it remained smelling fresh through the whole week, it also held up to the varied activities and showed only very minor signs that I had been wearing it all week. I love my new sweater and is a perfect sweater for any low-impact capsule wardrobe.

After spending 30 days in the all-season waffle crew neck I am in love with this sweater. I have a tendency to be cold all of the time, even in the summer. I'm usually uncomfortable in air conditioned environments. I used to always carry a synthetic jacket or pullover with me and it would always stink after only 1 or 2 wears. I was a little skeptical about how long the all-season sweater could go without being washed. I have wool base layers that I could wear several times but usually not more than 3-4 times before they would develop an odor. I learned about the superwash process from an Oliver Charles article that most of the big companies use to process their wool and how it changes the natural properties of wool. I was shocked at how long I can wear this sweater without it developing an odor. I wore this sweater for 8-12 hours a day for 26 days straight before I washed it. Each night, it might have had a little odor but by morning it was gone after airing it out. This is a game changer for traveling! I firmly believe in packing light. Whether it's a 2 day trip or a 2 week trip this sweater will handle it all with ease without needing to be washed. The washing process was super simple in the washing machine. Washing the sweater with blue jeans as Oliver Charles recommended worked wonders for removing any pilling that had developed. Wearing the sweater for 30 days in a row definitely helped me to realize that I truly need less clothing. I have noticed recently that the quality of a lot clothing has gone down and looks old and worn within 6 months. I'm not a person who wears trendy clothing and I have realized that I am much better off investing in quality pieces that will last a really long time. I would recommend this sweater to anyone who wants to reduce the amount of clothing that they own or pack light on travels. The undyed color is fantastic. It is so easy to pair with different color bottoms. I am truly happy with my purchase and I can't wait to try the winter sweater when it gets colder.
