Next’s £29 Soft-Touch Jumper Gains Traction as an Autumn Wardrobe Pick

Shoppers praise the soft, easy-to-layer knit, with some noting thin fabric and sleeve stretch.

Overview

  • The cotton-rich crew-neck style is positioned as a lightweight layering piece for transitional weather, featuring long sleeves and a floral stripe option.
  • Availability includes regular and petite fits, and the jumper is reported to be selling quickly online in multiple colours and patterns.
  • Customer ratings reported across listings range from 4.4 to 4.6 out of 5, reflecting broadly positive feedback.
  • Reviewers highlight a flattering fit and versatility that can be dressed up or down, with many calling the fabric very soft.
  • Some buyers raise concerns about the knit feeling thin, sleeves losing shape when pushed up, and perceptions of higher pricing versus previous versions, with alternatives flagged at New Look (£29.99), Roman (£36) and M&S (£50).
