Men’s knitwear ranges from light layers to warmer sweaters for colder weather. Jamieson’s, Stenströms and BML offer sweaters, cardigans and knitted vests in merino wool, Shetland wool, cashmere and wool blends.
Fine merino and cashmere fit easily beneath a blazer or coat, while Shetland wool, cable knits and Fair Isle styles have more texture and work well with jeans, chinos and casual outerwear. Crew necks are the most versatile, V-necks leave more of the shirt visible, and mock necks add extra warmth around the neck.
Cardigans give you an adjustable layer with button or zip fastenings, while knitted vests add warmth without sleeves. Choose the material and weight first, then the neckline or fastening that suits how you plan to layer it.
