Two merino sweaters, two different starting points
The Camden Crew and the Cassum V Neck are both men's sweaters from Untouched World, but they solve different wardrobe problems. The Camden Crew is a regular-fit crew neck in a 50% Glenthorne Merino, 50% TENCELTM blend called CoolTreeTM. The Cassum V Neck is a V-neck in a 60% Merino, 20% dehaired possum, 10% cashmere, 10% mulberry silk blend called CassumTM. That difference in fiber and neckline drives almost every other decision: how they feel, how they layer, and how they fit into your week.
Fabric and feel: what each blend is designed for
- Camden Crew: Crafted from our innovative CoolTreeTM blend of 50% Glenthorne Merino and 50% TENCELTM, the Camden Crew delivers exceptional softness with natural temperature regulation. The TENCELTM half points to a smooth, soft handfeel and breathable wear, which suits a sweater you might keep on indoors as well as outdoors.
Camden Crew - Cassum V Neck Sweater: Made from our exclusive Cassum blend of 60% Merino, 20% Dehaired Possum, 10% Cashmere and 10% Mulberry Silk. The possum, cashmere, and silk content signals a warmer, more luxurious feel, and the brand describes the blend as pill resistant.
Cassum V Neck Sweater - Cassum V Neck Sweater: No itch or prickle - perfect for sensitive skin If you usually avoid wool against your skin, this is the more comfortable option on paper.
Crew neck vs V neck: how each changes your outfit
The Camden Crew's crew neckline sits close to the collarbone and works as a standalone layer or under a jacket. It is the more casual of the two and pairs easily with jeans, chinos, or a tee underneath. The Cassum V Neck's V opening is designed to show a shirt collar or a plain tee, which makes it a natural choice for smart-casual dressing or office wear. If you want one sweater that does everything, the crew is more flexible; if you want a sweater that looks intentional with a collared shirt, the V neck is the better tool.
Fit and sizing: what the records confirm
- Camden Crew: Regular fit and crew neckline, available in S - XXL. The regular fit is the most versatile starting point for a men's merino sweater, and the size range covers most builds.
- Cassum V Neck Sweater: Lightweight V neck, available in XS to XXL. The wider size range starts one size smaller, which matters if you are on the smaller end of the size chart.
Layering: which sweater works harder under a jacket
The Camden Crew's regular fit and smooth merino-TENCELTM blend make it a straightforward base layer under a coat or overshirt. The Cassum V Neck is described as lightweight, so it also layers without bulk, but its V opening is best used with a visible shirt collar or tee. In practice, the crew is the easier layer for cold mornings, while the V neck is the easier layer for days when you will be indoors and want to look put together without overheating.

What the supplied information does not tell you
Neither record includes care instructions, so you should not assume either sweater is machine washable. The Camden Crew record also does not state a fiber weight or warmth rating, and the Cassum V Neck record does not state a fit label beyond lightweight. If you need those details, confirm them with the brand before ordering. What the records do support is a clear split: the Camden Crew is the softer, more casual, regular-fit crew neck, and the Cassum V Neck is the warmer, more luxurious V neck for smart-casual layering.
