A flexible piece of footwear that can as easily be worn with a suit as it could with chinos. We like to take a nod from the Riviera style book and pair driving shoes with a flattering pair of shorts and a shirt.

Reiss Zip Neck Jumper
Made from fine merino wool, this knitwear is a slight change from the normal crew or v-neck. Wear like the model with a simple tee and smart trousers. Equally, it works well over a shirt and tie, worn beneath a suit.
£95 from Reiss


2/10
H&M Fine Knit Jumper
Using fine cotton knit, this might not insulate as well as merino wool, but it is a great layering piece. As you expect from H&M the price is fantastic, and you can choose from a range of colours.
£17.99 from H&M


3/10
Uniqlo Long Sleeved Polo
This 100% merino wool long-sleeved knit polo from Uniqlo is one of our essentials. Choose from a range of colours and wear it beneath a suit for a more smart casual look. Or, partner with chinos or selvedge jeans for a pared-back outfit.
£34.90 from Uniqlo

Drakes Cashmere Letterman Jumper
The varsity or college style inspired by American Ivy League schools is still as relevant today as it was in the past. Drake’s jump on this with a beautiful cashmere jumper emblazoned with the Drakes ‘D’. Not sure my student loan would have stretched to this back in the day.
£395 from Drakes


5/10
Mango Structured Turtleneck Sweater
This cotton blend turtleneck has the signature Mango look all over it. Simple, but with a twist, this jumper would be a welcome change to a traditional roll neck. Best worn on its own or under a mac with some selvedge jeans and chunky boots.
£59.99 from Mango

Arket Colour Blocking Wool Jumper
From Arket’s ‘Responsible Wool’ collection is this colour-blocked jumper. This 100% wool knitwear is dark beige on the front and dark blue on the back. A clean, but effective aesthetic that we are loving.
£79 from Arket

Burton 1904 Colour Block Crew
Another colour block crew, this time from Burton’s 1904 range. Small touches include geometric internal trim. The main colourways are grey, navy and an autumnal burnt orange
£38 from Burton


8/10
J Crew Breton Stripe
Why should a Breton stripe be restricted to just summer? This super-soft cashmere jumper from J Crew offers warmth in a lightweight material. A great combination from one of their best-selling items.
£156 from J Crew


9/10
Mango Chunky Knit Lapels
This cable knit cardigan harks back to the ’70s style but without the garish patterns. With a muted colour tone, this is more Steve McQueen than Starsky and Hutch. Partner with a nice Oxford shirt and chinos.
£49.99 from Mango

Freight Store Lambswool Crew
Last but not least, is this lambswool crew neck from Freight Store. Designed and manufactured in the UK, they are crafted from 100% British lambswool. Ideal for when the real cold hits us hard.
