FAQs
Is the cardigan made of real denim?
No, it is crafted from soft cotton fabric that has been indigo-dyed and washed to mimic the aesthetic of denim.
Does the zipper have special branding?
Yes, the two-way zip features custom Diesel D-logo pulls.
Can I put this in the tumble dryer?
It is not recommended. High heat can cause the cotton to shrink and accelerate the fading of the indigo dye.
What does the raglan sleeve mean for the fit?
Raglan sleeves have a seam that runs from the underarm to the neckline rather than at the shoulder, providing a more comfortable, athletic fit.
Is this suitable for formal events?
This piece is best suited for casual or smart-casual settings due to its athletic design and denim-inspired finish.
Troubleshooting
Fabric color bleeding
Wash the garment separately in cold water for the first few cycles to remove excess surface dye.
Zipper sticking
Gently rub a bit of wax or a graphite pencil lead along the teeth to lubricate the track.
Loss of shape
Ensure the cardigan is laid flat on a drying rack rather than hung on a hanger while wet to prevent the sleeves from pulling.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Diesel cardigan in top condition, always follow the care label instructions specifically designed for indigo-dyed garments. Because the fabric is washed to achieve a faded denim aesthetic, it is recommended to wash this piece inside out in cold water with similar colors to minimize unwanted dye transfer or excessive fading. Avoid using harsh bleaching agents or high-heat drying, as these can compromise the structure of the cotton fibers. Lay the garment flat to dry to maintain its original shape and prevent shoulder stretching.
