GLENDA | Stand collar with chest pockets

I stopped taking a jacket to lunch. This is warm enough on its own and I am not carrying two things.

Half the year you end up with two layers for one outing. A cardigan for indoors and a jacket for the walk between the car and the door, and one of them spends the whole afternoon over the back of a chair or on your arm. Nobody wants to carry a coat around a restaurant. Glenda is knitted thick enough that it does the job of both.

The knit is heavy and roomy, substantial enough to stand in for a jacket indoors and on milder days. A tall ribbed collar stands up at the neck, so the chill stays off without a scarf. Dark buttons run down a ribbed placket, and two patch pockets sit high on the chest. Ribbed cuffs and hem hold the shape, the shoulders drop low so it goes over a sweater, and the length stops at the hip.

Why women our age keep coming back to it

• Warm enough to replace the jacket. Thick knit rather than a light cardigan, so you leave the house with one layer instead of two.
• The collar stands up on its own. Ribbed and tall, it keeps the chill off the neck without a scarf to arrange.
• Buttoned it is a jacket, open it is a cardigan. One piece covering two quite different looks, depending on the morning.
• Room for what is underneath. Roomy through the body with dropped shoulders, so a sweater or a shirt fits under it without pulling at the back.

How it fits

Oversized and relaxed with dropped shoulders, in S through XL. Take your usual size, since the extra room is already cut in and sizing up adds length at the sleeve. If you are between two, take the larger one so it buttons comfortably over a sweater. Note the range stops at XL on this one. Returns are covered below.

A few recent reviews

Heavier than I expected in a good way. It genuinely replaces a light coat. Vonda K., Chandler

The chest pockets are high enough to be useful for my glasses and not for much else, which is fine. Ardella S., Sun City

Buttoned up in the cream it looks like a proper jacket. Nobody guesses it is knitted. Lenna P., Scottsdale
