Unisex Sun Fade Distressed Ripped Crewneck Sweater

This sweater looks like it lost a fight with a vending machine and came out cooler. The charcoal knit fades to soft gray in cloudy patches, there's a round hole near the chest, a few small tears at the collar and the hem is pulled into loose loops. The cut is oversized with a dropped shoulder and the cotton is thick, soft and heavy. It looks lived-in from the first wear, which is a feature. Pull it over a tee and head out like you meant every rip.

We picked this one for the damage. A rounded hole opens on the chest with frayed edges, small tears break the ribbed collar, and the hem and cuffs are pulled into loose threaded loops that hang like tiny charms. The sun-faded gradient runs from near-black at the shoulders into lighter, cloudy gray across the chest and sleeves, with a ribbed crew neck, a clean back and a wide, boxy shape that drops past the hip.

It comes in Red, Light Gray, Black and Navy Blue. Black is the smoky, torn one in the photos, Navy Blue is the deep, moody pick, Light Gray is the soft heather and Red is the loud one for anyone who wants the holes to show. Wear it with baggy jeans and chunky sneakers, cargo pants and boots, or wide-leg sweatpants and slides. Add a chain and a beanie and you look like you were already late when you left.

For anyone who likes their sweaters beat up on purpose. The torn collar, the chest hole and the faded wash give this a street, vintage and casual feel that works from spring through winter. The heavy cotton holds its shape, the oversized drop shoulder keeps things relaxed and every piece wears in its own way. Pick your color and wear it hard. It only gets better with age, and the holes are already done, so there is nothing left to ruin.
