Men's Clothing Knitwear

Good knitwear works best as part of a layered outfit. This guide to men's knitwear is built around that idea: a three-step layering ladder, followed by the labels, fabrics and colours you will find in the range.

The knitwear layering ladder

1. Start with the base. A t-shirt or a polo underneath lets the collar show above the neckline of a crew neck or zip-neck knit.
2. Add the knit. Choose a crew neck, a half-zip or a quarter-zip, and wear it with jeans or trousers. For a more relaxed outfit, swap it for one of our sweatshirts.
3. Finish with the outer layer. A jacket, a gilet or a piece from our formal jackets adds structure. Our jacket guide shows how to combine them.

Labels in this range

Tommy Hilfiger Jeans is the strongest label here, and you can see more in the Tommy Hilfiger collection. Also look at Calvin Klein, Antony Morato, Lyle & Scott, Boss, U.S. Polo Assn. and Guess.

Fabrics, colours and care

You will find organic cotton, cotton, cotton waffle knit, wool, alpaca, linen and acrylic. Colours include navy, black, grey, beige, green, brown, light blue and fuchsia, along with striped designs. Most pieces are for autumn and winter, with a few lighter ones for spring and summer. Follow the maker's washing instructions, hand-wash delicate pieces and dry flat.

To finish

Add shoes that suit the look and the outfit is complete.
