I had folded it in my sweater drawer and when I took it out this morning it was fine. I wonder if sitting outside in super cold dry air did something. I didn't wear it because its too short for the ponte leggings but hopefully the problem solved itself! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/staticky-sweater#post-1094852 Fri, 22 Nov 2013 20:12:29 +0000 Gigi 1094852@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would also call Nordie's. They have very knowledgeable staff, and someone there might have some explanation or solution. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/staticky-sweater#post-1094625 Fri, 22 Nov 2013 17:28:46 +0000 rae 1094625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Huh, it's weird that Vince would be staticky. Since it's Nordies and I seriously doubt Vince is using acrylic or something more notoriously static-generating, I'd try the wire hanger, dryer sheets, hairspray, hiding a safety pin, or whatever your tolerance is for the <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.wikihow.com/Get-Rid-of-Static-Cling">suggestions of the interweb</a>. If it doesn't work, back it goes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/staticky-sweater#post-1094617 Fri, 22 Nov 2013 17:19:56 +0000 Thistle 1094617@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No advice different than what you have been given. Beautiful sweater, though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/staticky-sweater#post-1094472 Fri, 22 Nov 2013 15:00:02 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1094472@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm afraid I'm with Diana on this one. I had a light weight sweater a few years ago and used the "rub with dryer sheet" trick and it would work only temporarily. As the day wore on the sweater would become more staticky again.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/staticky-sweater#post-1094459 Fri, 22 Nov 2013 14:48:22 +0000 Diana 1094459@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>IME if something is staticky on its own (as opposed to, say, a skirt that is staticky only when worn with tights, which is fixable by putting a layer like a slip in&nbsp;between)&nbsp;nothing will fix it. &nbsp;Things like hangers or dryer sheets will remove the existing static temporarily but if the item is prone to collecting static electricity, it will do so. &nbsp;Particularly in winter, even hair and skin get so dry that they can generate static that will transfer to those static-prone items. &nbsp;</p> <p>So my advice is return it. &nbsp;Sorry. &nbsp;</p> <p>This is why I avoid polar fleece like the plague by the way. &nbsp;It makes all my hair stand up and I've been known to zap people and things when wearing it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/staticky-sweater#post-1094437 Fri, 22 Nov 2013 14:25:23 +0000 Summer 1094437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad you posed this question! Had never heard of the hanger trick! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/staticky-sweater#post-1094363 Fri, 22 Nov 2013 12:38:50 +0000 donnat 1094363@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would have said what Jeanie said. The hanger works great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/staticky-sweater#post-1094358 Fri, 22 Nov 2013 12:27:56 +0000 Glory 1094358@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think rubbing the inside of the sweater with dryer sheets or using a spray that you can make with water and a bit of fabric conditioner and gently spray.<br />Love the sweater </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/staticky-sweater#post-1094333 Fri, 22 Nov 2013 11:17:56 +0000 kkards 1094333@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>gently rub the sweater with dryer sheets.&nbsp;</p> <p>love that sweater!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/staticky-sweater#post-1094273 Fri, 22 Nov 2013 07:05:17 +0000 Jeanie 1094273@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe it's static-ky from rubbing against the packing materials to an area with low humidity. &nbsp;You can try taking a wire hanger and gliding the smooth long side over the sweater. &nbsp;Beautiful sweater! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/staticky-sweater#post-1094263 Fri, 22 Nov 2013 06:49:42 +0000 Deborah 1094263@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry not sure what to do, but I just want to say how much I love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/staticky-sweater#post-1094255 Fri, 22 Nov 2013 06:38:09 +0000 catgirl 1094255@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is according to the tag. It is thinner but still. I am thinking of static spray but I hate that smell! Mist with water? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/staticky-sweater#post-1094251 Fri, 22 Nov 2013 06:29:35 +0000 Gigi 1094251@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Did you check the tag to make sure that the sweater is indeed wool and cashmere, as the web page says? All I can figure is that they added some synthetics to the mix and didn't put that online. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/staticky-sweater#post-1094249 Fri, 22 Nov 2013 06:26:18 +0000 Alexandra 1094249@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wool and cashmere staticky, that's odd. I hope somebody chimes in who knows why and how to fix it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/staticky-sweater#post-1094247 Fri, 22 Nov 2013 06:21:43 +0000 catgirl 1094247@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am so in love with the soft sweater dressing that I ordered this sweater on sale.  It's AMAZING, but it was staticky right of the box.  My other sweaters are not like this - does anyone know why?  And what would be the cure?</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/vince-v-neck-crop-sweater/3509869?origin=wishlist" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/vi.....n=wishlist</a> </p>
