The humble cardigan has oscillated between two extremes in the fashion world. Once considered an outmoded, dowdy garment, the knit has resurrected itself to become a staple in any discerning gent’s wardrobe.
Layered over a plain white tee, a cardigan has the ability to elevate any everyday outfit. On the streets of the capital, you will spot these cosy knits on Shoreditch dwellers meandering down Brick Lane or kicking back in their local coffee shop. When paired with Dickies trousers, a crossbody Carhartt bag and a micro beanie, the cardi is so Hackney it hurts.
