I brought this sweater because it’s the exact brand and sweater offered on the school uniform site for half the price.French toast brand is a pretty good and quality brand. My done has had his first sweater for 6 months wearing 4 days a week to school. It only faded a tiny bit but not rips snags button issues or anything. For an active 5 year old I think this is a record holding up to wear, play, and frequent washes.
