As the winter chill settles in, it’s time to rethink your cold-weather rotation. Enter Cotton On’s men’s knitwear collection—practical, elevated, and more sustainable than ever. With soft textures, structured silhouettes, and a nod to conscious materials, these picks are effortlessly wearable and ready to layer.

Box Fit Fuzzy Crew Knit
The Box Fit Fuzzy Crew Knit makes a solid case for cozy street style. With its structured box fit and classic crew neckline, this piece stands out for both comfort and presence. The long sleeves are finished with ribbed cuffs, adding durability and definition, while the hem delivers a clean fit around the waistline. Crafted with a blend of 68% acrylic and 32% polyester, this sweater also includes 30% recycled polyester—making it a warmer choice in more ways than one. Available in Black and Grey Marle, it’s an easy match for jeans or wide-leg trousers depending on your mood.

Washed Box Fit Crew Knit
If timelessness is more your thing, the Washed Box Fit Crew Knit steps in with exactly that. Made entirely from cotton—including 20% recycled cotton—this sweater feels breathable and soft against the skin. It keeps the silhouette elevated with a boxy fit and sharp crew neckline. Ribbed cuffs and hems bring subtle refinement, while the slightly washed finish adds a lived-in charm that pairs effortlessly with denim, cargos, or even tailored pants. It’s a no-brainer for men who like clean silhouettes and quality basics that last.

V Neck Knit
Switching gears from casual to collegiate-inspired cool, the V Neck Knit brings a little preppy flair to your winter wardrobe. Designed with a classic V neckline and subtle stripe detailing down the sleeves, this sweater delivers both personality and polish. The chest embroidery adds just the right amount of branding without being overbearing, and the acrylic-polyester blend (68% acrylic, 32% polyester) ensures a warm yet lightweight feel. Pair this one with slim-fit trousers or layer it over a button-down for that effortless layered effect.
Final Word
Cotton On continues to refine everyday essentials, and this season’s men’s knitwear collection is proof that great style doesn’t need to scream. Whether you're drawn to the fuzzy, laid-back aesthetic of their boxy knits or the sporty charm of a V-neck, these sweaters are cold-weather staples with real staying power. Consider them your go-to layers for everything from city commutes to cozy weekends indoors.
