State Cashmere Essential Crewneck Sweater

Description

Cashmere is the holy grail of thrift finds, but quality secondhand cashmere is getting harder to score. State Cashmere offers 100% cashmere at a price that undercuts most department store blends. The essential crewneck is a wardrobe workhorse — fine-gauge knit that layers under blazers or stands alone.

At $79, this sits at the intersection of “cheaper than retail cashmere” and “more reliable than thrift cashmere.” You know the exact grade, you know it hasn’t been moth-eaten and repaired, and you know the sizing. Sometimes buying new is the smarter thrift move.

Why we recommend it: 100% cashmere for under $80. When the thrift store doesn’t deliver on cashmere, this is your backup at a fair price.
