• Easy and hassle-free return and exchange process.

• Poor durability in some garments, with reports of shrinking or falling apart after a single wash.
• Cashmere is frequently criticized for using short fibers that lead to excessive pilling.
• Limited sizing options for tall individuals or those requiring XXL+ in certain lines.

Caveats
