The full-zip ripped cardigan makes two different decisions possible: where the distressed openings sit and how the zip changes the neckline. The listing names both features but gives no close-up or opening map, so do not assume that every colour reveals the same amount of underlayer.

Choose the intended zip position

For a closed fit, compare a zipped cardigan you own at chest and full shoulder-to-cuff reach. This item lists M at 116 cm chest, 60 cm shoulders, 50 cm sleeve and 68 cm length; L at 120/62/52/70; XL at 124/64/54/72. For an open layer, check the length and the intended underlayer as separate choices: a plain tee can show through the distressing, while a patterned layer may compete with it. Ask for current front and back photos of the selected Black, Grey or Apricot option to locate the openings.

Ask whether the zip opens from the bottom and whether the distressed edges are finished if either detail affects how you wear it. Those construction facts are not supplied. The source states 100% polyester and a possible 1–3 cm manual-measurement difference, but no knit density or abrasion test. Let the chosen image and a garment chart, rather than the word “ripped,” decide coverage and fit.
