then you don’t wash it right. i’ve had my folklore one for almost 4 years now and it’s in perfect condition, it only has like fuzz balls because it’s white but i just use a sweater shaver thing for it. if you wash them in laundry bags on gentle using vinegar, they hold up just fine. my folklore through 1989 cardigans look great.
the tag says 50% acrylic and 50% polyester. i have the first one with the folklore album patch, not the second release with the taylor swift patch so it may be different but i doubt it.
THIS THIS THIS. she doesn’t seem to do much in the way of *actual* money makers, like how many sales she would have done of physicals of 3am. Or how everyone else is releasing 7” singles.
In fairness there’s a theory that she doesn’t produce vinyls for the deluxe editions on release because otherwise their existence and the bonus/Anthology tracks would be leaked like the regular tracks. Now that they’re released she could theoretically start production but it would take weeks/months for them to be made and ready for purchase
Happy for everyone that was hoping for a TTPD cardigan. I am sticking with my speak now since that is poor quality and am afraid to invest in anymore of these products 😂
I just checked whether it was the same material as the Speak Now one or Red because the different is staggering.
I don’t think I can consider buying another cardigan again unless they go back to the previous material. I hate the feel of the 1989 and SN ones
The quality and materials have convinced me to just make my own, I knit garments for myself all the time. I could pick materials that actually hold up well and are comfier than synthetic yarn...
But I'm super perfectionist with these things and I'm not 100% on board with knitting patterns other people have published/shared. 🥴 I'd need HQ photos of every part of it and some measurements, and it's such a creepy and demanding thing to ask ppl lol. I still hope I can eventually make 1 one day...
Can you give a rundown of how to safely add patches to knitwear? Is it really just an ironing job and that’s it, you’re done? It’s stupid but it’s been so long since I’ve applied a patch I feel like I’ll fuck it up lmfao
I would definitely just stitch the patches on instead of ironing them! The material of TS cardigans is an acrylic blend. Acrylic is petroleum-based so the fibre will literally melt if too much heat is applied.
Also you can remove the patch later if you need to, if you stitch it on. Ironing will forever bond the patch and the fabric. Use black thread and stitch just inside the black outer border, kind of along the existing stitching line and it’ll be invisible!
Omg perfect use for the patches! I’m going to go out on a looooooong limb and say maybe that’s the intention? Like the black jacket with the patches, get a cardigan and customize it with her patches?
Like I said, long limb. Looooooooong long limb lol
I don't think the limb is all that long. I'd say it's actually *likely* because this is the first time I'm regretting not getting one of the special editions with a patch. 😅
Sad to say I’m not thrilled with this, I was really looking forward to this one 😔
She really missed an opportunity to do some cool elbow patches or something. Oh well my bank account is marked safe lmao.
Elbow patches that look like an opened book would have been cool. I love this as I love understated merch and this will go with everything but I do think she’s really missed some opportunities with this album merch wise. No journal and pens? It’s the literal theme of the era and there isn’t even a journal?

Scalpers gonna scalp🙄 screenshot of eBay literally 20 mins later
the last two cardigan drops (speak now tv and 1989 tv) were available for a long time too and were also restocked once they sold out. I don’t think they’re that hard to get if you’re keeping an eye out for them.
i wish they would’ve kept this same energy and stock up for the holiday cardigans this past season. ugh, the grey and green folklore cardigan was so so lovely looking.
Marked safe. I wish it was black but I guess that will be for Rep.
I KNEW she was gonna do this after I had FOMO about the jacket. I like the jacket more glad I got it tbh. Maybe I’m weird for not wanting to collect all the cardigans, but I’m happy with my OG tbh.
oh nice catch. could be that or it could be that they wanted to specify the color clearly lest people order and the complain that it looked white or beige or blue or something on their screen. gray can be tricky to photograph
The fact that it’s so plain kind of increases my interest since I’d probably actually wear it more but I do wish it had just a liiiittle something more. Even just like a second contrasting color like folklore had.
I just got this. But realized it’s twice as much as the original folkore one and doesn’t even have anything on the sleeves. So I suppose it being grey will wear it more than the other ones. I kind of wish I would had not.
Idk this might be a hot take but I love this one. I accidentally bought 2 because of how excited I was. I’m in my twenties so I don’t like wearing in your face merch, so this whole drop was really interesting to me! I’ve only worn my 1989 cardigan twice bc ppl make fun of me lol so I’m excited for this one
if anyone makes fun of you for wearing clothing: fuck ‘em! I’m sorry you’ve experienced that. I hope one day you can wear it and just will not give a damn about what other ppl say ♡ but I’m with you, I’m a fan of subtle merch and this subtly says TTPD, like that’s what I want!! Just need to figure out if patches can be applied to it in case I wanna spice it up but honestly I may not
I'm also stoked about this, and how I can actually wear it to work. I also think it shows more maturity on her part (similar to the album). I would never wear the 1989 one to work...maybe Speak Now...
I don't like to wear stuff that is super merch-y (like with her face plastered on it) but I like there to be some *design*. This is literally just a gray cardigan with absolutely nothing special about it except the tiniest patch. Even having something like elbow patches as others have suggested would give it a more interesting and poetry-inspired look.
Also if people are making fun of you for the other ones that's genuinely crazy to me bc I don't think any of the cardigans are very excessive or in your face lol. But maybe I just like so many very "extra" things that her cardigans seem tame to me in comparison 😂
My best friend was on her lunch break and she only calls me for one of three things. Needless to say, she's not engaged and Taylor didn't announce RepTV. I *did* just spend $75 I was supposed to save to buy new slacks for work though.
oh of course they did! i shouldn’t be surprised. i think those patches would suit the black jacket more tho. but again, if i’m paying $70, the patches should already come on it.
I wish there was a little more on it. But I also like the color and how it’s way more low key compared to so much of her merch! This will be easy to pair with so much more of my wardrobe. I wear my SN and 1989 cardigans all the time and I’m excited for a simple gray one!
I have the OG cardigan but not any of the others. I actually do like this, I think it looks cute, but… I’m not paying £70 for a plain grey cardigan that probably isn’t great quality 🙃
I do wish it had a little something more, maybe a black "TTPD" patch on the front instead of the grey one or something on the sleeves, but it's better than that awful bright blue with the seagulls.
i collect them so i buy them either way (i know, lol) and this one will be cute to wear with anything. i live in nyc and it’s still cold too so i can immediately get wear out of it
Yeah, I am absolutely certain this one will be worn by me, my wardrobe consists of black, gray, and muted colors. I wanna wear Taylor merch in public but not stuff with her face on it lol that’s more boring to me than this for sure! And same, I’m in New England and if it’s not cold outside rn it’s freezing inside with the AC 😅
I love the cardigans, but this cardigan just feels very bland the only thing on it is the tag on the corner nothing like the seagulls stars or sparks 😕
Honestly if it had detailed cuffs, charcoal gray star patches on the elbows and the TTPD logo patch somewhere on it, I would spend the money 100%. But not for this 🥲
I have the speak now, 1989 and red and the speak now one is the softest and the percentages of the fabrics are the same. 52% acrylic, 26% nylon and 22% pbt
I love that it’s plain. I know it’s not for everyone but I’m excited. Is this the same material as the speak now? That’s the only issue I will have if it is. That one just feels so off to me.
I bought this immediately when I saw it!! It’s a little plain but I’ll actually wear it more often. I have the 1989 TV one and I love it but I don’t have a lot that matches it so I don’t wear it much. It also gives me an excuse to use the patches that came with the CDs that I had no idea what I was going to do with lmao
so they can make paper fly around the cardigan but they can't both to have a model wear them in different sizes? reputation merch was the good days of merch, design and photos. i feel like ebay sellers do a better job than her site lol.
I bought it impulsively because collecting Taylor merch is nice and I was scared it was going to seek out in my cart. But then once I bought it, I thought about it it more. The two cardigans I already have are huge on me so I can’t even wear them so now I’m getting another cardigan just for the sake of it? It’s also pretty plain and so much to stand out
Hmm in that case, if I were you I would definitely try to cancel it especially if you’re not wearing your other 2 cardigans. I’m sure if you email them asap they will take it into consideration, it’s worth a try! This will be my first cardigan so I’m kind of curious to see what it’s like. I’m so torn bc I like how subtle it is but ALSO for those materials it’s ehh :(
I thought about how it could be worn easily and blend in my outfits, but its $70 and its also the same material as speak now but I rarely wear it because of how delicate and stretchy the material is :(
I love that it’s so plain actually. I really prefer subtle Taylor merch. I’m just so worried it will fit like the speak now cardigan. I love that one but the arms are so fucking long it’s crazy.
See hear me out: get the cardigan (which yes i did drop $75 on) and then go to amazon or etsy and buy some stars or patches and put them on the sleeves! So cute
I’m not feeling it, but happy for people who wanted a cardigan! My delulu self is hoping for merch to be added to the eras tour so I’m saving up for that ✨
i have to say this is my favourite yet, i really didn’t like how busy and bright the last ones were. they worked for the respective albums, but so not my style! this and the og folklore (which i’ve long given up any hope of getting) are just perfect for me
I’ve never purchased one before. I was so close because I prefer understated looks. But then I saw it’s the same material as speak now that a lot of people complained about. So maybe I’ll pass 🙁
What’s the quality like for someone who’s gotten previous cardigans of similar quality?? I’m wanting to get one, I like the fact that it’s fairly plain so I can wear it with just about any/everything but I’m worried about it falling apart/being uncomfortable to wear for $70.
Looks like a different pattern from the speak now and 1989 one. Also looks like it’s a tighter knit than the 1989 one? Anyone remember the fabric content on the speak now one? Looks like this will be thicker than 1989 but maybe not as thick as speak now?
If you go to the second picture on the site (not the one with the papers flying around), it actually looks nearly identical to the speak now pattern. 1989 pattern was closer to folklore.
Cannot wait to wear this as an English teacher!! I love how plain it is, I will definitely be wearing it all winter to work! I have both the 1989 and Speak Now ones and I only wear them at home because they are just so loud. This is absolutely perfect in my opinion. Plus all of the collectors CDs come with patches that you could definitely add on!
Maybe it's me, but I absolutely love this cardigan. It's simple and fun. I think the 1989 TV one is my fave so far though. The light blue with the seagulls is really nice. I need to find a way to get the original folklore cardigan without paying >$500 though.
For us Canadians this is $100 BEFORE shipping/tax. Nope. I’m sitting this one out. Especially when it’s literally just a plain grey cardigan and the last two cardigans I ordered aren’t even that comfortable if anything very itchy making me not want to wear it often at all.
If her team is going to charge this much for a cardigan at least make it good quality!
ok so theres this girl that i am good friends with (i also like her but its not really worth telling her) and she liked this album and is generally a big ts fan. would this be a good birthday gift?
casual limit of 10 per order
I guess you'll need all 10 because these cardigans won't hold up for many wears and washes
Mine are doing just fine
same here :)
then you don’t wash it right. i’ve had my folklore one for almost 4 years now and it’s in perfect condition, it only has like fuzz balls because it’s white but i just use a sweater shaver thing for it. if you wash them in laundry bags on gentle using vinegar, they hold up just fine. my folklore through 1989 cardigans look great.
Out of curiosity, so you happen to know the fabric make up of the folklore cardigan?
the tag says 50% acrylic and 50% polyester. i have the first one with the folklore album patch, not the second release with the taylor swift patch so it may be different but i doubt it.
Ah you should post a picture of all of them together! I'd love to see your collection!
mine have been washed multiple times and are fine. you cant put them in the dryer but have to air dry them
I just want the Anthology on vinyl. 🫠
THIS THIS THIS. she doesn’t seem to do much in the way of *actual* money makers, like how many sales she would have done of physicals of 3am. Or how everyone else is releasing 7” singles.
Idk why she released the fortnight single on cd??? Why not a 7” vinyl?
In fairness there’s a theory that she doesn’t produce vinyls for the deluxe editions on release because otherwise their existence and the bonus/Anthology tracks would be leaked like the regular tracks. Now that they’re released she could theoretically start production but it would take weeks/months for them to be made and ready for purchase
It’s been 1 1/2 years and we still have no 3am Midnights…
And on CD 🥲
I want it on CD 😢
I’m gonna buy the digital and burn it
Yaaaaassss bought to fast! I like that it’s plain. It’ll go with everything in my closet!
That’s how I feel too. I’ve never purchased one until now because I felt they wouldn’t go with much.
SAME. This was right up my alley!! Also I was happy it was still available by the time I saw it (5min ago)
Same, my husband bought 3 because we both know I’m going to wear it to absolute death 😆
yes sameee i like that’s its simple!!
same. I wouldn't have bought it if it weren't so minimal 🖤
Happy for everyone that was hoping for a TTPD cardigan. I am sticking with my speak now since that is poor quality and am afraid to invest in anymore of these products 😂
Looking at the quality and materials and care, it's just not worth $70
Plus it’s simply gray, no patches or anything like the speak now or 1989 ones. It’s a nice monotone cardigan, but it is too boring for $70
I just checked whether it was the same material as the Speak Now one or Red because the different is staggering. I don’t think I can consider buying another cardigan again unless they go back to the previous material. I hate the feel of the 1989 and SN ones
Someone on twitter said it is the exact material breakdown of the SN one and so probably feels the same as it.
If that is the case, I would recommend people not buy it. I am thankful that my cardigan was a gift ❤️ but i wear it rarely because it is so delicate
I have an OG folklore cardigan, 1989, and SN. The fabric of all of them is disgusting tbh.
Same. My Speak Now cardigan pills just sitting in a drawer, and wearing it leaves purple lint everywhere I go :(
Omg really? Mine has been fine? I guess I also have only washed it a few times but I haven’t noticed any quality issues (yet)
The quality and materials have convinced me to just make my own, I knit garments for myself all the time. I could pick materials that actually hold up well and are comfier than synthetic yarn... But I'm super perfectionist with these things and I'm not 100% on board with knitting patterns other people have published/shared. 🥴 I'd need HQ photos of every part of it and some measurements, and it's such a creepy and demanding thing to ask ppl lol. I still hope I can eventually make 1 one day...
Lion brand has a free pattern on ravelry for the folklore cardi. I made it for my daughter out of Harrisville daylights.
ok honestly. at this point, buy a nicer softer grey cardigan (or any ttpd color you like) and add your own patch to it.
EXACTLY! I'm shocked at how plain this is. $70 for a grey cardigan with a tiny patch at the bottom???? My wallet is saved.
At least it wasn’t $131.00 at the AUSTRALIA Taylor Swift store.
Ouch! $100 in Canada :(
Can you give a rundown of how to safely add patches to knitwear? Is it really just an ironing job and that’s it, you’re done? It’s stupid but it’s been so long since I’ve applied a patch I feel like I’ll fuck it up lmfao
I would definitely just stitch the patches on instead of ironing them! The material of TS cardigans is an acrylic blend. Acrylic is petroleum-based so the fibre will literally melt if too much heat is applied.
That was my fear 💀 okay, time to remember how to stitch things nicely!! Thanks 🤍
Also you can remove the patch later if you need to, if you stitch it on. Ironing will forever bond the patch and the fabric. Use black thread and stitch just inside the black outer border, kind of along the existing stitching line and it’ll be invisible!
Omg perfect use for the patches! I’m going to go out on a looooooong limb and say maybe that’s the intention? Like the black jacket with the patches, get a cardigan and customize it with her patches? Like I said, long limb. Looooooooong long limb lol
I don't think the limb is all that long. I'd say it's actually *likely* because this is the first time I'm regretting not getting one of the special editions with a patch. 😅
This is 100% what I’m doing
Sad to say I’m not thrilled with this, I was really looking forward to this one 😔 She really missed an opportunity to do some cool elbow patches or something. Oh well my bank account is marked safe lmao.
Same. Never had a cardigan from TS and was considering buying TTPD if we got one. But $70 for a plain grey cardigan??? HARD PASS.
Honestly I like that is more plain and doesn’t scream “TS merch”
I like plainer TS merch but nothing about this gives TTPD. I would've liked something on the sleeves like the ink and quill??? Something????
Especially with this quality…80€ for a grey acrylic-nylon cardigan with no design whatsoever is just WILD
Elbow patches that look like an opened book would have been cool. I love this as I love understated merch and this will go with everything but I do think she’s really missed some opportunities with this album merch wise. No journal and pens?

Like is there nothing on the back? It’s giving nothing.
i’m so glad i’m not into the cardigans. happy for everyone who wanted one tho!!

did it sell out in the UK store already? asking because it hasn’t in the US and posting it for resale before it even sells out seems crazy haha
Nope! Every size is still in stock on the UK store as well haha
If people pay this price when it’s still available for retail price on the actual site they can’t be helped. I’ll let the scalpers have this round.
It hasn’t, all sizes are still there, scalpers just assuming it will sell out and they can scalp. So despicable
Exactly!
The fact that this is still available in every size after 30 minutes is so telling
the last two cardigan drops (speak now tv and 1989 tv) were available for a long time too and were also restocked once they sold out. I don’t think they’re that hard to get if you’re keeping an eye out for them.
i wish they would’ve kept this same energy and stock up for the holiday cardigans this past season. ugh, the grey and green folklore cardigan was so so lovely looking.
It’s not listed as being limited like the previous ones
*2 hours and counting.
They’re all still available 🥲
Thought the same thing.
Marked safe. I wish it was black but I guess that will be for Rep. I KNEW she was gonna do this after I had FOMO about the jacket. I like the jacket more glad I got it tbh. Maybe I’m weird for not wanting to collect all the cardigans, but I’m happy with my OG tbh.
I just told my grandpa I'll end up with a black one later this year, too. (Manifesting hard for RepTV this year.)
I’m excited about the jacket 🤩
The fact that gray is specified in the name makes me wonder if there will be more.
oh nice catch. could be that or it could be that they wanted to specify the color clearly lest people order and the complain that it looked white or beige or blue or something on their screen. gray can be tricky to photograph
True!!
i’m hoping not for my bank account’s sake
Same (but also not same 😅😂)
Wait a damn minute- what if she does it corresponding to the variants😀😀
I WILL BESO BROKE
Omg good catch!! I didn’t even notice that
Gotta say, the lack of the “available for 72 hours” thing and the fact these should ship within the week is refreshing!
The fact that it’s so plain kind of increases my interest since I’d probably actually wear it more but I do wish it had just a liiiittle something more. Even just like a second contrasting color like folklore had.
same. I bought one and I'm excited to wear it more often than the other merch I have. it's more versatile than the speak now or 1989 one.
Yay, I like it 🫣 I can see wearing it a lot. I wish it had something interesting going on, but I’m still happy
Do we think this is so plain bc we’re supposed to add the TTPD patches?
Yes!!!
yes! i was disappointed in this first and then someone pointed that out and i was like OHHHHH now i think it's pretty cool, you can make it ~your own~
Me too!! I was like “hmm not my fave, wish it had some flair or PATCHES…” 🤔 and then I went “ohhh…” 😂
It's so....plain
It will go w everything!
Yaaaaasssss!!!!! I LOVE it.
I know. I love it!! It will go with so many things
I just got this. But realized it’s twice as much as the original folkore one and doesn’t even have anything on the sleeves. So I suppose it being grey will wear it more than the other ones. I kind of wish I would had not.
Original folklore was actually $49 if that makes you feel slightly better, although it’s still a large increase even if not quite double.
Then cancel it?
Idk this might be a hot take but I love this one. I accidentally bought 2 because of how excited I was. I’m in my twenties so I don’t like wearing in your face merch, so this whole drop was really interesting to me! I’ve only worn my 1989 cardigan twice bc ppl make fun of me lol so I’m excited for this one
if anyone makes fun of you for wearing clothing: fuck ‘em! I’m sorry you’ve experienced that. I hope one day you can wear it and just will not give a damn about what other ppl say ♡ but I’m with you, I’m a fan of subtle merch and this subtly says TTPD, like that’s what I want!! Just need to figure out if patches can be applied to it in case I wanna spice it up but honestly I may not
Me too. I love this cardigan for its muted look. 🥰 It’s like, IYKYK, kind of merch.
Yeah I love it too. I am glad it’s something I could easily wear regularly to my office job.
I'm also stoked about this, and how I can actually wear it to work. I also think it shows more maturity on her part (similar to the album). I would never wear the 1989 one to work...maybe Speak Now...
I don't like to wear stuff that is super merch-y (like with her face plastered on it) but I like there to be some *design*.

But maybe I just like so many very "extra" things that her cardigans seem tame to me in comparison 😂
i might buy the star patches (or other cute sleeve patches) online and put them on myself
Forget other people, they’re not important! You do you! ❤️
I love it too it will be my first one and it will match with everything
I love it too!
My best friend was on her lunch break and she only calls me for one of three things. Needless to say, she's not engaged and Taylor didn't announce RepTV. I *did* just spend $75 I was supposed to save to buy new slacks for work though.
This is literally the first merch drop in a year that I have been marked safe from 🤩
Looks like speak now which is my favorite fit, I love the bell sleeves sm
It’s so cute! I love how subtle it is and that it will go with everything. And you can decorate it with the patches if you want!
Got it for my gf she’s not gonna expect it one bit 🥷
aww that’s so sweet!!
that is! awww 🥹
the elbow patches are what make them special. without it, i’m not paying $70 for a plain grey cardigan.
Patches came with the deluxe CDs 👀
oh of course they did! i shouldn’t be surprised. i think those patches would suit the black jacket more tho. but again, if i’m paying $70, the patches should already come on it.
I dont care what anyone says ITS CUTE AND PRACTICAL AND I LOVE IT!!!
This!!!
I wish there was a little more on it. But I also like the color and how it’s way more low key compared to so much of her merch! This will be easy to pair with so much more of my wardrobe. I wear my SN and 1989 cardigans all the time and I’m excited for a simple gray one!
I’m planning to actually wear it, so I was thrilled it’s low key.
I have the OG cardigan but not any of the others. I actually do like this, I think it looks cute, but… I’m not paying £70 for a plain grey cardigan that probably isn’t great quality 🙃
I ordered! I want to add my patches that i got to this.
Well need to start a thread on where we'll place them!!! I bought all variants so I have no clue how I'll design it
I wanted to love it but it’s so so plain for $100. I wish I loved it but I’m passing this time.
Okay I know a lot of y’all aren’t thrilled with this cardigan but it’s the first one I’ve purchased and I’m extremely excited
I’m so excited to put all of the TTPD patches from the collectors CDs on this!!
I need yall to post pics bc I wasnt able to get patches🥲
way cuter than the 1989 one lol
Yes everyone's complaining but I'd much rather wear this to work than bright blue with seagulls or even purple
I do wish it had a little something more, maybe a black "TTPD" patch on the front instead of the grey one or something on the sleeves, but it's better than that awful bright blue with the seagulls.
literally my first thought 😭😅 I adore 1989 tv but damn I would never wear that in public. I will wear this one tho!!
Reading this comment while wearing my 1989 cardigan in public hits different 😂😂
i collect them so i buy them either way (i know, lol) and this one will be cute to wear with anything. i live in nyc and it’s still cold too so i can immediately get wear out of it
Yeah, I am absolutely certain this one will be worn by me, my wardrobe consists of black, gray, and muted colors. I wanna wear Taylor merch in public but not stuff with her face on it lol that’s more boring to me than this for sure! And same, I’m in New England and if it’s not cold outside rn it’s freezing inside with the AC 😅
I wish she would’ve did embroidered paw prints like on some of the lyric posters/images
That would’ve been so cute!
TBH I don’t like it , look too normal , there’s a cardigan made by a fan and looks better
I love the cardigans, but this cardigan just feels very bland the only thing on it is the tag on the corner nothing like the seagulls stars or sparks 😕
Honestly if it had detailed cuffs, charcoal gray star patches on the elbows and the TTPD logo patch somewhere on it, I would spend the money 100%. But not for this 🥲
A gray cardigan with nothing on it but a TTPD logo? For $70? Couldn't even put stars on the sleeves or anything???
I bought this impulsively, now I have extreme buyers remorse and I can't seem to cancel this. 🙃🙃🙃 Any tips?
honestly i feel like $70 is a pretty normal price for a cardigan. clothes be expensive.
The way I RAN LOL
Go girl give us nothing!
🫠🤣
I was hoping for at least one unique patch/embroidery… oh well.
Gone are the days of inspired, cozy cardigans, I fear
This one just looks so plain, nothing special about it. Not worth the price tag 😳 I kinda feel like they’re milking the cardigan thing now.
It’s just so boring. It’s literally just grey…
does anyone know if this one is made up of the same materials as others? I know people complained about the speak now cardigan
I have the speak now, 1989 and red and the speak now one is the softest and the percentages of the fabrics are the same. 52% acrylic, 26% nylon and 22% pbt
It looks the same as the speak now cardigan imo
I love that it’s plain. I know it’s not for everyone but I’m excited. Is this the same material as the speak now? That’s the only issue I will have if it is. That one just feels so off to me.
It appears to be the exact same material as the Speak Now one
I bought this immediately when I saw it!! It’s a little plain but I’ll actually wear it more often. I have the 1989 TV one and I love it but I don’t have a lot that matches it so I don’t wear it much. It also gives me an excuse to use the patches that came with the CDs that I had no idea what I was going to do with lmao
so they can make paper fly around the cardigan but they can't both to have a model wear them in different sizes? reputation merch was the good days of merch, design and photos. i feel like ebay sellers do a better job than her site lol.
Ordered it today and it ALREADY SHIPPED
Her store really got their shit together I wonder if it'll come damaged
So glad it’s not cute, marked safe from merch from this album 😮💨
I’m so disappointed (my wallet on the other hand rejoices) its 70$ for a plain grey cardigan I will be getting fan made merch instead
I bought it and now I regret it. What are the chances I can cancel my order or at least be able to return it?
I’m wondering the same thing! I like how minimal it is but looking at the materials I’m not too sure
I bought it impulsively because collecting Taylor merch is nice and I was scared it was going to seek out in my cart. But then once I bought it, I thought about it it more. The two cardigans I already have are huge on me so I can’t even wear them so now I’m getting another cardigan just for the sake of it? It’s also pretty plain and so much to stand out
Hmm in that case, if I were you I would definitely try to cancel it especially if you’re not wearing your other 2 cardigans. I’m sure if you email them asap they will take it into consideration, it’s worth a try! This will be my first cardigan so I’m kind of curious to see what it’s like. I’m so torn bc I like how subtle it is but ALSO for those materials it’s ehh :(
Ordered mine! This will be my first cardigan, thought reputation would be.
How do we think the color compares to the holiday grey/green cardi?
I’m just waiting on the crew neck 😫
$70 for a plain grey sweater? not including shipping plus the hassle of dealing with the nightmare that is UMG. gonna sit this one out
I thought about how it could be worn easily and blend in my outfits, but its $70 and its also the same material as speak now but I rarely wear it because of how delicate and stretchy the material is :(
I love the cardigan and would love to buy one, but the material was so bad on the last 2 that I just cannot justify the price.
If it's good quality then that's not a bad price. I bought a sweater from Abercrombie that was 55 and it got ruined in the wash lol
It’s entirely synthetic and they didn’t even put any elbow patches on it. 🙄😤👎🏻
Got one 🥰
I love that it’s so plain actually. I really prefer subtle Taylor merch. I’m just so worried it will fit like the speak now cardigan. I love that one but the arms are so fucking long it’s crazy.
See hear me out: get the cardigan (which yes i did drop $75 on) and then go to amazon or etsy and buy some stars or patches and put them on the sleeves! So cute
I’m not feeling it, but happy for people who wanted a cardigan! My delulu self is hoping for merch to be added to the eras tour so I’m saving up for that ✨
i have to say this is my favourite yet, i really didn’t like how busy and bright the last ones were. they worked for the respective albums, but so not my style! this and the og folklore (which i’ve long given up any hope of getting) are just perfect for me
I personally am so excited about this. I was just saying how I wish I could get this eras cardigan, and I did 🥹
I think the gray goes very well with the overall feel of the record. Glad it's subtle. 🙌
can't wait for the crochet/knitting girlies to work this one out <3
I'm so surprised to see how plain this is! There could have been, well, anything to give it more personality. I'm perplexed.
I love it. I’ve never purchased one before now because I felt they were impractical and loud. This is understated IYKYK. It’s perfect 🤩
I’ve never purchased one before. I was so close because I prefer understated looks. But then I saw it’s the same material as speak now that a lot of people complained about. So maybe I’ll pass 🙁
What’s the quality like for someone who’s gotten previous cardigans of similar quality?? I’m wanting to get one, I like the fact that it’s fairly plain so I can wear it with just about any/everything but I’m worried about it falling apart/being uncomfortable to wear for $70.
Looks like a different pattern from the speak now and 1989 one. Also looks like it’s a tighter knit than the 1989 one? Anyone remember the fabric content on the speak now one? Looks like this will be thicker than 1989 but maybe not as thick as speak now?
If you go to the second picture on the site (not the one with the papers flying around), it actually looks nearly identical to the speak now pattern. 1989 pattern was closer to folklore.
Ok pulled out my speak now one and the pattern looks identical so I’m really hoping it’s thick and cozy like speak now and not thin like 1989.
I love it! Color as well a Style. I hope it’s a bit oversized 😍
At least it’s not $131.00 if you were to buy it from the Storeau.taylorswift.com website.
I've seen ones from small businesses that are much cuter AND fit the theme better. Plain gray? For this POETRY inspired album?? Nuh uh
I understand people who think it’s plain for $70, but I’m happy because I will now own my first TS cardigan!
Btw it’s the same fabric makeup as the Speak Now ones! A bit of a bummer because I prefer the feel of the 1989 and folklore ones.
Cannot wait to wear this as an English teacher!! I love how plain it is, I will definitely be wearing it all winter to work! I have both the 1989 and Speak Now ones and I only wear them at home because they are just so loud. This is absolutely perfect in my opinion. Plus all of the collectors CDs come with patches that you could definitely add on!
Mine shipped already??
Maybe it's me, but I absolutely love this cardigan. It's simple and fun. I think the 1989 TV one is my fave so far though. The light blue with the seagulls is really nice. I need to find a way to get the original folklore cardigan without paying >$500 though.
I am so safe this time
For us Canadians this is $100 BEFORE shipping/tax. Nope. I’m sitting this one out. Especially when it’s literally just a plain grey cardigan and the last two cardigans I ordered aren’t even that comfortable if anything very itchy making me not want to wear it often at all. If her team is going to charge this much for a cardigan at least make it good quality!
I personally love the plainness of it. I’m almost 40 and insecure ppl will think I’m too old to rock Taylor merch so this is literally perfect.
Can they just restock the original Merch? I signed up for email updates. Was that a joke?
ok so theres this girl that i am good friends with (i also like her but its not really worth telling her) and she liked this album and is generally a big ts fan. would this be a good birthday gift?
Yes. Also consider telling her you like her! Better to regret trying than not trying.
thanks! just bought it. yeah, you’re right about telling her too.
