Crafted from 100% ZQRX Merino, this lightweight knit is soft, breathable, and effortlessly versatile. Designed to be worn two ways, it features a V neckline on one side and a softly rounded neckline on the other, giving you styling flexibility in one beautifully considered piece. Finished with ruched sleeve detailing and ribbed trims, it’s the kind of relaxed, easy knit you’ll reach for all season.

  • Lightweight knit
  • Reversible
  • One side V neckline, the other rounded
  • Ribbed cuffs, neckline and hem
  • Long sleeves
  • Ruched sleeve detailing
  • Relaxed fit

We love ZQ merino because we can trace the garment fibres back to New Zealand farms, it’s certified in supporting animal welfare - the sheep are farmed on a free range basis, so there’s less environmental damage - and best of all, it's premium quality. Better for the animals, better for the planet, better for you.

Absolute Wardrobe Staple!

This is a gorgeous, versatile piece that seamlessly bridges casual and polished.
Absolute Wardrobe Staple!
The Elementary ZQ Merino Reversible Sweater is an absolute brilliant find. It is the ultimate layering piece—exceptionally comfortable, soft, and surprisingly warm without feeling bulky.
What makes it truly special is its incredible versatility. It effortless elevates a simple pair of jeans for a relaxed weekend look, but easily pairs with tailored trousers for a sharp, office-ready outfit. The distinct detail on the sleeves adds a subtle, unique touch that makes it stand out from standard knitwear. Plus, the reversible design essentially gives you two chic sweaters in one. Highly recommend!

Black merino reversible sweater

Reversible merino sweater which you can wear with either the v or round neck at the front. It is a fine knit but is still warm and can be worn on its own or under a blazer or jacket. I sized down as it was quite a large fit.

Love the sweater but the fabric is fragile and the first time I wore it

Love the sweater but the fabric is fragile and the first time I wore it, a tread pulled at the front - no idea how as it was just everyday wearing. luckily it is reversible as the pulled thread under the v is annoyingly obvious.

Lovely jumper but already starting to pill

I have 2 of these jumpers from a few years ago and have had no problems and they still look amazing. The 2 I have bought this season have started to pill after only a couple of wears.

Nice warm winter layer. Batwing style makes it a bit boxier than I was anticipating

Nice top but it is very thin, I feel it’s on the expensive side for the quality of merino unfortunately.

A Magician in Disguise

The Max Elementary ZQ Merino Reversible Sweater is essentially a magician in disguise, having quickly made half my wardrobe redundant. Its greatest trick is being fully reversible, which is perfect for those days when I’ve successfully managed to spill something on myself and need to execute a mid-day "flip" to hide the evidence. It strikes that rare balance of being absolutely beautiful yet incredibly hardworking; I can dress it up to look like a sophisticated adult for dinner or keep it casual for a "relaxed but I still tried" weekend look. Between the buttery softness of the Merino and its ability to transition from Professional Human to Lounge Pro in seconds, it feels like being hugged by a very stylish, breathable cloud. It’s the ultimate two-for-one deal for anyone who wants to look polished while putting in half the effort.

SO MUCH TO LOVE

Love the simplicity with sleeve detail of this sweater. Also the flexibility to change the look by reversing it.
Love the colour - lots of compliments!! And Merino wool can't be beaten for warmth and breatheability.
