Daphne Cardigan

This SNDYS cardigan leans into a sharp, graphic aesthetic, rendered in a dense knit with structured white whipstitch detailing along the neckline, cuffs, and faux pocket flaps. The boxy, slightly cropped silhouette is punctuated by oversized buttons that provide a heavy, grounded contrast to the clean black-and-white color blocking. It functions as a modern nod to mid-century tailoring, trading traditional wool for a smooth, matte finish that holds its shape.

Safety Rating: Lowest

Analysis: The composition consists primarily of polyester, a petroleum-derived synthetic fiber that lacks natural breathability and is prone to microplastic shedding. The inclusion of an "antibacterial fiber" finish suggests the application of chemical treatments to mitigate odor, which can disrupt the skin’s natural microbiome.
