Premium Cotton-Blend Construction
We knit the truth by republic short sleeve sweater from a proprietary cotton-poly blend that delivers the softness of natural fiber with enhanced durability. The yarn weight is carefully calibrated to provide just enough warmth for spring and fall evenings without overheating.
The knit construction features a fine gauge that resists pilling and maintains its shape after repeated wear. Each sweater goes through a pre-wash process to minimize shrinkage, so the size you order is the size you’ll keep. The ribbed detailing at the neck, cuffs, and hem uses a tighter stitch pattern for structure that frames the relaxed body beautifully.
Sizing & Fit Guidelines
The Truth by Republic short sleeve sweater is designed with a relaxed, modern fit that skims the body without clinging. We recommend ordering your standard size for the intended slightly cropped silhouette—the hem falls just at or slightly above the natural waistline.
For reference, our size medium measures approximately 23 inches in length from the highest point of the shoulder to the hem, with a 19-inch bust measurement taken flat across. The short sleeves end mid-bicep on most body types, creating a flattering proportion that works well with both slim and wide-leg bottoms.
Care Instructions & Longevity
Machine wash your truth by republic short sleeve sweater in cold water on a gentle cycle to preserve the knit integrity. We recommend turning the garment inside out before washing to protect the outer surface and using a mesh laundry bag if washing with heavier items.
Tumble dry on low heat or lay flat to dry—both methods work well with our pre-washed yarn. Avoid high heat, which can cause unnecessary shrinkage or weaken the fibers over time. If wrinkles appear, a quick steam or cool iron on the reverse side will refresh the fabric.
