A good vintage jumper will keep you going for years. Many jumpers from earlier decades were knitted from wool, merino or other natural fibres, with a density and finish that are increasingly rare in new clothing. Here you’ll find men’s jumpers and cardigans, from understated classics to knits with real personality.
A signature part of our collection is the graphic, colourful knitwear of the 80s and 90s. Think textured knits by Carlo Colucci or the iconic multicoloured jumpers by Coogi. You may also find pieces from Versace Jeans Couture, for example. Which labels are in stock changes all the time.
A statement jumper needs calm around it: plain trousers or dark vintage jeans almost always work. A fine merino jumper, on the other hand, looks sharp over a shirt from our shirts and tops, collar out. Finish the look outdoors with a coat from vintage jackets and coats.
Wash wool and merino by hand or on a wool cycle at a low temperature. Dry jumpers flat so they keep their shape, and store them folded rather than on a hanger. We check every piece for pilling, holes and marks, and describe any signs of wear honestly.
Lambswool is warm and slightly sturdier, while merino is finer and comfortable against the skin. The thick, three-dimensional knits associated with Coogi come from combining different yarns and stitches, turning a jumper into something like a relief map. That makes them heavier, so always fold them rather than hanging them up. Discover more in men’s vintage clothing.
It depends on the label and era; many 80s and 90s jumpers have a generous fit. That’s why chest and length are listed on every product. Also see our size guide.
We state the material on every product. If the label is missing, we describe what we’ve established ourselves.
