I remember realizing their appeal anew after introducing an article in Lobsterr Letter vol.211 (May 2023) that described cardigans as an item symbolizing men's soft power. The one created for this project is also an extension of those feelings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy the way, the article I introduced at that time is here:\u003cbr\u003eThe Cardigan: A New Soft Power Tool\u003cbr\u003eThe Guardian reports that the image of the cardigan, once strongly associated with the elderly, is changing. If quarter-zip knit jumpers are a masculine status symbol for David Beckham, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta, and those working in finance, then cardigans are becoming a fashion item representing men's soft power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRecent issues of GQ featured an article about George Nakai, a character from the popular Netflix series \"BEEF,\" with the headline \"George is awful, but his cardigans are not,\" introducing cardigans from Needles, Dries van Noten, and John Elliott. It seems that \"soft power cardigans\" are being used in important scenes not only in \"BEEF\" but also in popular HBO series like \"Succession\" and \"The Last of Us.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStylist and editor Gary Armstrong states that the attention cardigans are receiving is due to a desire for a softer masculinity that young men today want to express. Tom Chardel, a buyer at luxury select shop Browns, analyzes that while cardigans were once a basic item that appealed to a wide range of people, recently more assertive items are being released by more edgy brands. It was an interesting opinion piece about the connection between popular content, pop culture, social trends surrounding masculinity, and the consumer behavior that emerges from them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/fashion\/2023\/apr\/28\/soft-power-cardigans-male-status-symbol-sales-soar\" title=\"Soft power: cardigans become male status symbol as sales soar\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSoft power: cardigans become male status symbol as sales soar The Guardian\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Details\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThis cardigan features a deep orange base combined with navy buttons. Only the right front placket is switched with light gray, creating a subtle difference in expression not visible in a single color.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe difference in length between the front and back, and small slits at the side hems, lighten the silhouette of the knit, which can often appear heavy. A small Lobsterr logo embroidery is added to the left cuff, providing a subtle accent without being too overstated. The ribbed cuffs and hem are finished with appropriate tension, creating a balanced and easy-to-wear everyday outerwear piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a knit cardigan with vivid colors and subtle details that you'll always want to reach for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProduct number: CYC-ORG-02\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMaterial: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e76% Polyester, 22% Cotton, 2% Rayon\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCOLOR: ORANGE\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMADE IN CHINA\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"width: 98.4647%; height: 126.594px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 44.5px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 19.1538%; height: 44.5px; text-align: center;\"\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 15.7861%; height: 44.5px; text-align: center;\"\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 15.1547%; height: 44.5px; text-align: center;\"\u003eShoulder Width\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 16.2071%; height: 44.5px; text-align: center;\"\u003eBust\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 15.5756%; height: 44.5px; text-align: center;\"\u003eSleeve Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 15.9966%; height: 44.5px; text-align: center;\"\u003eHem Width\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 37.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 19.1538%; height: 37.5938px; text-align: center;\"\u003e2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 15.7861%; height: 37.5938px; text-align: center;\"\u003e70\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 15.1547%; height: 37.5938px; text-align: center;\"\u003e55\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 16.2071%; height: 37.5938px; text-align: center;\"\u003e62\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 15.5756%; height: 37.5938px; text-align: center;\"\u003e58\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 15.9966%; height: 37.5938px; text-align: center;\"\u003e47\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 44.5px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 19.1538%; height: 44.5px;\"\u003e 3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 15.7861%; height: 44.5px;\"\u003e75\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 15.1547%; height: 44.5px;\"\u003e59\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 16.2071%; height: 44.5px;\"\u003e64\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 15.5756%; height: 44.5px;\"\u003e60\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 15.9966%; height: 44.5px;\"\u003e50\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e[Free shipping on orders over ¥16,500]\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFabric Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCOCYLE is a recycled material developed jointly by Takefuku Co., Ltd. and Soochow University.
