Bobo Choses | Polo Cardigan - Midnight Blue Wool Blend

Cast in a deep midnight blue, this polo cardigan trades the usual crew neckline for a collared, button-through front — a detail borrowed from classic knitwear and reworked here with a looser, more directional hand. The collar structures the neckline just enough to hold its shape open or buttoned to the top, giving the piece a dual identity: sharp enough to read as a shirt substitute, relaxed enough to function as an outer layer over everything else. The yarn is a considered blend — recycled polyamide and viscose form the base, folded through with both recycled and virgin wool and a touch of cashmere. The result is a knit with real weight and a soft, slightly brushed hand rather than the flat, tight gauge of a standard cardigan. Viscose lends drape and a subtle sheen against the matte depth of the wool, while the cashmere fraction softens the surface at the collar, cuffs and hem — the points where skin meets fabric most often. It sits somewhere between cosy and refined, with enough structure to hold its silhouette through a day of wear. Cut with a loose fit, the cardigan is designed to sit away from the body through the shoulders and torso, with room to layer a shirt, turtleneck or tee underneath without pulling at the buttons. The polo collar and button placket bring definition to what is otherwise an easy, unstructured shape — the fit reads relaxed without slipping into shapeless. Sleeves are cut full through the arm, tapering slightly toward the cuff, and the body length hits at a point that works equally well tucked or left loose over trousers. In movement, the loose construction and the wool-cashmere hand give the cardigan a soft, slightly heavy swing rather than a stiff structure — it moves with the body instead of holding a fixed line, which is part of what makes it as easy to wear open over a dress as buttoned up on its own. The midnight blue reads closer to ink than true navy, deep enough to function as a neutral against black, grey or denim, but with enough colour to stand apart from a plain black knit. This is a cardigan built for the transitional stretch of the season — worn open over a white shirt and trousers for the office, layered under a coat with a scarf on colder days, or buttoned up alone with jeans for something quieter. Responsibly made in Spain, it carries the kind of construction detail — the collar, the loose cut, the mixed-fibre yarn — that rewards a second look rather than announcing itself. Style it with cream, camel or grey to let the midnight blue anchor the outfit, or keep the palette tonal with denim and black for something more graphic and considered.
