Jumpers for Men

What kinds of jumpers for men are there?

Jumpers for men come in many variations:

• different necklines such as a round neck, V-neck or a Henley with a short button placket
• close-cut, slim shapes as well as slightly more relaxed styles
• light, fine-knit jumpers for the transitional season and thicker, warmer jumpers for winter
• plain basics as well as jumpers with texture such as a cable or rib pattern or a melange finish

Most jumpers at Tom Tailor are made of cotton, many of organic cotton, some with wool or cashmere. In colour, the range runs from blue, grey and black through green and brown to white and red. Exactly which fit and material a jumper has is stated in each product description.

How do I recognise a high-quality jumper?

You can recognise a high-quality jumper above all by the material and the workmanship. Pleasant natural fibres such as cotton or a share of wool and cashmere feel soft and keep you warm. An even, dense knit, clean seams and firm ribbing at the cuffs and hem speak for good quality. How long a jumper stays looking good also depends on the right care. At Tom Tailor you'll find, among others, styles made of organic cotton as well as with a cashmere or wool content.

Which jumpers are currently on trend?

Currently on trend are jumpers with texture, for example with a cable pattern, rib details or a melange finish. The troyer with a short zip at the neck is also a stylish classic that's popular again and again. In colour, alongside timeless black, grey and blue, stronger shades like green or red are on trend too. If you prefer something plain, you can't go wrong with a clean basic jumper.

How do I combine a high-quality jumper for men?

A jumper is an easy, versatile companion for men. Worn over a shirt it creates a smart, business-ready look, with the collar and cuffs showing. With jeans or chinos the jumper looks casual and everyday. For a sporty appearance, combine it with a plain top and sneakers. If you'd like more warmth around the neck, a troyer or turtleneck jumper is a good alternative.

How do I care for a jumper correctly?

So that a jumper keeps its shape and colour for a long time, you should follow the care instructions on the label. As a rule: wash at a low temperature with a mild detergent for delicates, skip the fabric softener, and pull the jumper into shape to dry flat rather than hanging it up. Styles with wool or cashmere are especially delicate and are best hand-washed or given a special wool or delicates programme. That keeps the knit soft and stops it shrinking.
