What customers say:

Customers overwhelmingly praise the sweater for its charming lobster graphic, nautical aesthetic, and vibrant coastal colors that spark frequent compliments. Reviewers consistently commend the superior craftsmanship, soft cotton fabric, and lightweight yet warm comfort perfect for spring and layering. Many note the sweater runs large and prefer the roomy, oversized fit for casual styling, though some found it too big. A few report minor issues like detached threads, but these isolated concerns barely register against the strong overall satisfaction and emotional connection customers feel to this whimsical, timeless design.

I bought this thinking it was going to run small as my other 2x plus sweater was equivalent to an XL. This was huge even after washing using manufactured instruction.

Novelty crew sweater.
The seaters were nearly made of cotton which I enjoy. I’m looking forward to more upscale clothing for women.

I purchased the Deep Lake Lobster sweater. It's a perfect weight - not thin and not too heavy. The color is a dusty blue that works with everything and the lobster design screams
