Product Description
This men front button cardigan is manufactured using a 50% acrylic, 30% nylon, 20% wool blend, developed for durability, insulation, and controlled production stability. The finished garment weighs 638g, positioning it within the mid-to-heavyweight chunky knit category suitable for fall and winter layering.
Constructed in a 5G chunky knit gauge, the cardigan features a single-breasted front button placket and structured silhouette. The fiber blend balances cost efficiency with performance, making it suitable for wholesale programs and private label collections. Sizes are available from S–5XL, customizable for export markets.
Design & Construction
Chunky Knit Texture
The 5G knit structure creates a defined vertical stitch texture typical of chunky knit cardigans. The inclusion of nylon improves elastic recovery under tension, reducing long-term sagging at elbows and body panels. Surface finishing is calibrated to control fuzz formation and meet industrial anti-pilling expectations for blended yarn programs.
Reinforced Button Placket
Buttons are secured using industrial cross-stitch reinforcement to withstand repeated fastening cycles. Buttonholes are finished with high-density purl stitching to prevent expansion or yarn breakage common in coarse knit structures. An internal stabilization tape can be inserted along the placket to maintain vertical alignment and prevent front panel distortion caused by garment weight.
Heavy-Duty Linking
Shoulders and armholes are connected using reinforced linking methods to support the garment's 638g weight. Cuffs and hem incorporate double-layer rib construction with controlled shrinkage calibration, ensuring consistent edge recovery after washing and extended wear.
