Troyer Jumpers for Men

Troyer Jumpers for Men

What is a men's Troyer jumper?

A Troyer is a jumper with a short stand-up collar and a half zip at the neckline. Originally the Troyer comes from sailors' clothing and to this day it is a practical companion, because you can regulate the warmth at the neck via the zip. At Tom Tailor you will find Troyer jumpers for men as a classic knitted jumper and as a sporty sweat version, in many colours from blue and black through grey and white to green and brown. Some models use a short button placket instead of a zip.

What are men's Troyer jumpers at Tom Tailor made of?

Troyer jumpers for men at Tom Tailor are mainly made of cotton, which is soft and comfortable to wear. Besides that, there are several versions:

• pure cotton or a cotton blend for an easy-care feel
• knitted versions with texture such as cable, herringbone or Fair Isle for a more tactile look
• a sweat version as a Troyer sweatshirt for sporty, casual days
• individual Troyers with a share of cashmere for extra softness

Which fibres are used and in what proportion is stated in each product description.

How should a men's Troyer jumper fit?

A Troyer fits best when it sits comfortably without being tight. Most models at Tom Tailor are made in a regular fit with a straight cut, some in a relaxed fit with a little more width. The shoulder seam should end at the edge of the shoulder, and the stand-up collar should sit loosely around the neck. Since a Troyer works well over a shirt or T-shirt, it should not be too tight, so that you can layer several pieces.

How do I style a men's Troyer jumper?

A Troyer is versatile and easy to combine. Worn over a shirt, the shirt collar peeks out and makes a smart look, while on its own the Troyer looks casual and uncomplicated. With jeans you get a relaxed leisure outfit, and with a chino the Troyer looks a little smarter. As for shoes, trainers suit a relaxed appearance, or boots for the colder season. If you prefer a smarter look, combine the Troyer with a blazer.

When do you wear a men's Troyer jumper?

A Troyer is mainly suited to the cooler season from autumn to winter. Via the zip you can open the collar when it gets warmer or close it when there is a draught. A knitted Troyer keeps you warm on cold days, while a sweat Troyer is the lighter choice for the transitional season.
