Charlton | Shawl Collar Cardigan Knit

Collar turned down. Hands in pockets. Settled.

The shawl collar is the piece here — cut deep and knitted thick, so it folds over on itself and holds that fold rather than flattening by midday. The body is a textured knit with real substance to it, closing through the front with buttons that sit flush. Two patch pockets are set low enough to put your hands in properly. It runs relaxed through the chest and shoulder, with room for a shirt underneath.

A Collar That Keeps the Draught Off The shawl rolls up around the back of the neck when you turn it, which makes a difference on a cold platform. Left open, it frames the chest and keeps the line long.

Pockets Placed Where You Reach The two front pockets are deep and stitched into the body seam, so they take a phone or a set of keys without pulling the hem out of shape.

A Fit That Layers Without Bulk Cut relaxed rather than oversized, it goes over a shirt or a tee and still sits close enough to wear under a coat. If you are between sizes, take the smaller for a trimmer line.

Textured Knit With Weight to It A dense, soft-handed knit in the cable knit cardigan for men tradition — enough thickness to hold warmth and keep the hem hanging straight, with a little give across the shoulder. Ribbed cuffs and hem grip lightly so the sleeves stay where you push them, and the button placket is knitted in rather than added on, which is why it stays flat where a mens zip up cardigan can pull.

Wear it over a plain tee with dark denim, or over an oxford shirt with flannel trousers for something quieter.
