Distressed, Snagged, & Deconstructed Sweaters

Ripped and distressed sweaters bring a lived-in edge that feels intentional, not overdone. This sweater collection has pieces that look undone in the best way, with frayed hems, snags, fringe, and raw details that add texture and personality without sacrificing comfort. Each sweater feels thoughtfully worn, like something you've owned forever but styled for right now. 

These aren't about looking torn up, they're about balance. Soft knits meet imperfect finishes, creating deconstructed, easy-to-wear styles. After seasons of structured layers, distressed sweaters feel like a reset: lighter, freer, and more expressive. Style them with denim, throw one over a slip skirt, or pair with boots for a boho-chic look.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I style ripped sweaters?

Ripped sweaters work best when you balance the distressed details with clean pieces. Pair a slouchy ripped pullover with fitted jeans or faux-leather pants to keep the look grounded. For a boho vibe, layer one over a slip dress with ankle boots. The key is letting the sweater be the statement piece while keeping the rest of your outfit simple.

Will the distressing get worse over time?

Our ripped sweaters are designed with intentional distressing that won't unravel or worsen with normal wear. The frayed hems, snags, and raw details are reinforced during construction to maintain their look. With proper care, your sweater will keep its deconstructed style season after season.

How do I care for distressed sweaters?

Hand wash or use a gentle cycle in cold water to preserve the distressed details. Turn the sweater inside out before washing and avoid harsh detergents. Lay flat to dry rather than hanging to prevent stretching. The distressed elements are durable, but gentle care will keep them looking their best.

Can I wear ripped sweaters in warmer weather?

Yes! Many of our ripped sweaters are made from lightweight cotton blends that work well for spring and early fall. The distressed details add texture without extra weight, making them perfect for layering on cool evenings or wearing solo on breezy days. Look for styles with more open knits or cropped silhouettes for warmer months.
