The Underappreciated Sweater Silhouette That Serves as This Season's Sartorial Superhero

Sweaters are a dime a dozen in winter, we reckon. Sometimes their sheer number means they become afterthoughts. Once the tundra-like temperatures hit, we often set aside our fashion goals in favor of simply staying warm. We switch to bulky, void-of-personality knits with their only job being to keep us from shivering. But we don't have to put up with unattractive jumpers in our concerted efforts to ward off the cold. Actually, half-zip sweaters are the relatively easy solution to the cold-weather problem.

It's the perfectly positioned zipper that makes them ideal for winter since it makes these sweaters simple to pull on or off. That same power means they're great for layering. Especially over turtlenecks or other lighter knits. Since we're only focusing on the super stylish variety, you'll want to make our picks your outermost layer with the exception of your winter coat.
