Defacto school cardigan

Start with size and fit, then pick a style that suits daily school wear. This lineup includes Girls Regular Fit V‑Neck Cardigans in grey across sizes like 7-8, 8-9, 9-10, 11-12 and 13-14 years, as well as Navy Bike Neck Buttoned designs for girls in sizes 7-8 to 11-12. For boys, you’ll find Hooded Black Zippered options in size 8-9 years and other zippered styles in navy or black. Material variety (cotton blends, or acrylic blends) and closures (zip, buttons) let you balance warmth, durability, and ease of care.

Materials range from cotton blends to 100% acrylic. For example, one cardigan uses a cotton‑63% polyester‑37% blend, another uses cotton‑36% polyester‑64%, and another is 100% acrylic. A cotton blend offers breathability with durability, while acrylic provides a lighter, often easy‑care option. By matching fabric to your child’s activity and climate, you’ll get a cardigan that stays comfortable through a school day and multiple washes.

Key features include zip‑front or buttoned closures, and styles like hooded zip cardigans or regular knit designs. Hooded black zip styles are practical for outdoor days, while bike‑neck buttoned options offer easy layering under shirts. Color choices such as grey, black, and navy are versatile for school uniforms, and the range includes both boys’ and girls’ cuts to suit different daily outfits.

Yes. The lineup features distinct girls’ and boys’ styles, such as Girls Regular Fit V‑Neck Cardigans and Girls Navy Bike Neck designs, alongside Boys Hooded Black Zippered Cardigans and Navy Navy Zippered options. This mix lets you choose based on preferred look, fit, and how the piece pairs with existing shirts and pants in your child’s uniform.

If you’re between sizes, choose the next size up to allow growth through the school year. Sizes in the collection span from around 7-8 to 13-14 years for girls and 8-9 to 11-12 years for boys, so you can select a longer‑lasting option that won’t feel snug after a growth spurt.

Neutral tones like grey, black, and navy are most versatile for school ensembles. For example, grey Regular Fit V‑Neck and navy Bike Neck Buttoned options pair easily with shirts and skirts or pants, ensuring a tidy, uniform‑friendly appearance across different weather and events.
