Jumper dupe...

Please help me, S&B gurus...

I have fallen in love with this jumper from Wolf & Badger

www.wolfandbadger.com/uk/womens-cropped-navarro-jumper-grunge-stripe-black-and-white/

But it is expensive and the sizing sounds like it might be on the large side for me. Anyone seen anything similar?

I like the grunge aspect and see-through-ness. And the fact it is cropped. I'm 5ft and size 6. Would spend up to £100 for something perfect.

Couldn't you buy it? It's £118 and they usually do a 10% discount if you register an account.

You could knit one! Save yourself a fortune ☺️

If it was the perfect size I would, but small/medium looks like a 10/12 if I read the size guide correctly? I am 5ft and size 6/8 so it likely will be too big, especially as the fit looks loose/oversized.

But if anyone owns it already and can comment on sizing that would be great!

I wish I was good enough at knitting! It would take me years and probably turn out rubbish...

Do they do free returns and refund?

TooMinty · 16/03/2023 16:33

Just going to check this...

Ok, they do free returns and I got a code for 10% extra off so I ordered it - please cross your fingers for sizing to be TooMinty friendly!

www.urbanoutfitters.com/en-gb/shop/uo-grunge-stripe-laddered-knit-jumper Only issue is that it’s not cropped and would be baggy on you but maybe search Vinted or eBay

Wolvesandcacti · 16/03/2023 17:55

Ooo I had a similar one in the 90s! It’s really nice.

TooMinty · 16/03/2023 22:40

Yeah I like it because it reminds me of one I had in the 90s too - I knew I'd come back into fashion eventually 😂

If you don't like it check outv the one that's a similar stripe at Arket. I don't know the price though.

I’ve seen similar on ebay for a fraction of the price, worth a look.

So1invictus · 17/03/2023 08:59

Striped jumpers are everywhere at the moment. H&M, Zara, M&S, Urban Outfitters, Primark.

TooMinty · 17/03/2023 09:44

Thanks KPIs!

I'm very fussy (annoyingly so I think...) so all of the other striped jumpers I have seen aren't quite grungy enough!

I agree OP. There's a fine line between grunge and breton!!

I love the wolf and Badger one but don't do cropped.

TooMinty · 17/03/2023 09:51

I'm a short arse so it won't be too cropped on me hopefully 🤞🏻

TooMinty · 20/03/2023 21:27

Updating - it's arrived, I love it, thanks for convincing me to buy it! It's on the big side but I think I can call it slouchy/oversized and grungy rather than too big...

Happy days! It's fun finding something we really love.

raffegiraffe · 21/03/2023 14:36

Glad you liked it, it's a lovely jumper
I bought similar but was far too big. I'm going to knit my own I think..

TooMinty · 21/03/2023 21:51

I'm envious of your knitting talents @raffegiraffe
