What exactly is a jumper?

A jumper is an overarching term for various garments that keep your torso warm. This includes pullovers, sweatshirts, polo necks, and cardigans. The distinctions between a jumper and sweater are subtle, and the terms are often used interchangeably. Nevertheless, a sweater generally exudes a more casual vibe, given its looser fit. Additionally, a men's sweater is made of cotton and designed for maximum comfort and freedom of movement. Some models feature a hood, referred to as a hoodie.

Types of men's jumpers

The men's jumper, a versatile garment, can stylishly complement any outfit. Whether it's the cut, fit, or colour, there's something for everyone. You can opt for chunky knits or fine-knit jumpers. Moreover, you can choose from different necklines. The most popular options are V-neck jumpers, crew neck jumpers, and roll neck jumpers. For sporty gents, the half-zip or shawl collar jumper is a hit. These men's jumpers with a stand-up collar and short zipper or buttons appeal to many. In addition to cotton, wool, and cashmere, some men's jumpers incorporate high-quality synthetic fibres like polyester and elastane (stretch) to enhance strength and elasticity. Below are brief descriptions of the most popular categories:

Pullover for men

Pullovers are a staple for every professional man. This thinner men's jumper without buttons and zippers is usually worn over other clothing items. Most variants have a wider or deeper neckline, making them a stylish match with a shirt. For a day at the office, you can layer a blazer over it. For a rugged look, pair a pullover with a denim shirt and sturdy jeans.

Sweaters for men

In the late 19th century, the sports sweater evolved from the jumper, proving extremely practical for horse riding, golf, tennis, and cycling. Nowadays, a sweater is a wardrobe essential. Men's sweaters are casual garments often crafted from cotton. Characteristics of a sweater include ribbing at the cuffs and bottom. Sweaters are frequently available in vibrant colours with embellishments. Popular sweater brands at Suitable include Colorful Standard, Champion, and PME Legend.

The versatility of the half-zip jumper

Men's half-zip jumpers are particularly popular in spring and autumn. This is because they allow you to regulate your temperature easily. If you're too warm, unzip; if it's chilly, zip up. Besides, it's a smart jumper suitable for professional settings. Styling tip: team your half-zip jumper with a shirt for that added touch of sophistication.

What sets a sweater apart from a hoodie?

Both sporty men's garments are made of cotton and offer a soft inner feel. The most prominent difference lies in the hoodie's hood. Additionally, most hoodies come with drawstrings to adjust the hood snugly. Some even feature a kangaroo pocket at the front for easy hand warming or temporary item storage. Trendy hoodie brands in the Suitable selection include Napapijri, Lyle and Scott, and Tommy Hilfiger.

Jumpers and sweaters for all seasons

Among the various men's jumpers, Christmas jumpers exude the most jovial vibes. Although most people associate jumpers and sweaters with colder months, there are always occasions to wear one. Thinner pullovers are ideal for warmer days, while half-zips are perfect when the weather is unpredictable. Simply unzip if it's too warm, zip up if it's chilly.

What are the available fits for jumpers?

Comfort remains crucial for a men's jumper or sweater. Therefore, always choose a fit that feels most comfortable for you. A Slim-Fit jumper fits closely along the body, ideal for men with an average to slim build. Modern-Fit men's jumpers are the most common fit, lightly tailored along the body with a regular fit. Jumpers with a Regular-Fit fall straight along the body and have a loose fit. Comfort-Fit jumpers go a step further, offering an even roomier fit.
