The NOORS cardigan from Nebulus was delivered together with other products in a sturdy shipping box. The shipping box was undamaged and could easily be opened with a knife or scissors. The box was also optimally sized and filled to the top edge. This efficient packaging minimizes the amount of material required and ensures optimal utilization of the transport vehicles, which helps to protect the environment. When we opened the box, we found the NOORS cardigan in its product packaging.
The product packaging consists of a transparent, tear-resistant and non-stretch plastic bag in which the NOORS card igan was carefully packed. The Nebulus logo is clearly printed on the front of the packaging. There is also a sticker on the packaging which, in addition to a barcode, also shows the product name and the size of the cardigan. The back of the packaging contains warnings in four languages, including German and English, indicating that the bag poses a choking hazard. The bag has a resealable opening on the top, which is provided with an adhesive strip. This adhesive strip is reusable so that the bag can be easily resealed if it is returned. There is also a thin layer of paper between the individual layers of the carefully folded cardigan to prevent the material from rubbing during transportation. Thanks to the careful packaging with the shipping box and the plastic bag, the NOORS card igan is optimally protected against damage and soiling.

For our test , we received the NOORS cardigan in the color combination navy and white. In addition to this color combination , Nebulus also offers the cardigan in black-red and white-black. The navy and white color combination gives the cardigan a wintery look.
The cardigan is designed for women and is made from the same fabric on the inside and outside for optimum comfort . The area with the pattern is knitted in two layers . The patterns are not stitched on, but created by a different color of wool thread. The rest of the cardigan consists of one layer of fabric. Most of the cardigan is in white, with only the lower section in navy. As a color contrast to the basic colors navy and white, the cardigan has a pattern of triangles, diamonds, snowflake symbols, moose and Norwegian flags that surrounds the sleeves and the lower part of the cardigan.
There is a stretchy section around two centimetres long at the bottom and at the sleeve ends, which ensures that the cardigan fits snugly in these areas. The fabric of the cardigan is relatively thick, slightly stretchy and tear-resistant. According to the manufacturer, the cardigan is made from 100% polyester. The seams are even and neatly finished. There are hardly any protruding threads, and if there are any, they are very short. Apart from this, there are no other manufacturing faults on the cardigan. The cardigan has the typical, pleasant smell of new clothing.
Overall, the navy and white cardigan with the all-round pattern is a fashionable garment with a wintery and appealing design. The quality of the fabrics and seams used and the overall finish are also impressive.

Does the manufacturer keep its advertising promises?
ℹ️ Our practical test is the most relevant and therefore the most important. Here, the product has to undergo a wide range of criteria and tests. We check the functions and product promises of the test article.

The NOORS cardigan is available in various sizes between S and XXL for women. In our test , we received the cardigan in size S. For our tester, who is just under 165 cm tall, the cardigan reaches above her knees. It fits close to the body and the fabric on the inside feels very comfortable and soft, even against bare skin.
As expected, the thick fabric of the cardigan keeps you nice and warm even in cold weather. The stretchy areas on the sleeves ensure that the openings are flush with the body. However, the main factor for thermal insulation is the thick fabric itself.
In the final part of our practical test, we wash the cardigan according to the manufacturer’s instructions. For the NOORS card igan, this means an easy-care wash cycle at 30 °C without drying and ironing, which corresponds to the usual recommendations for comparable garments. Unfortunately, washing at 60 °C, as would be recommended after sporting activities or heavy soiling, for example, is not possible. After washing, the laundry smells of the detergent used, but otherwise there are no noticeable differences. The cardigan survives the washing process without any damage or fading.
Overall, the NOORS cardigan impressed us in our practical test. It fits comfortably, feels pleasant against the skin thanks to the inner fur, keeps you nice and warm and also withstands washing without any problems.
