Beige gets dismissed as the absence of a decision and we think that’s completely wrong. A well chosen beige cardigan is one of the hardest working pieces in a wardrobe precisely because it disappears into an outfit without vanishing from it. It layers over a white shirt without competing. It sits under a coat without adding bulk. It reads dressed up or casual depending entirely on what you put it with, which is a harder trick to pull off than it sounds. The ones we’ve pulled together here are cut close enough to look considered but not so slim they’re uncomfortable to actually wear. Fabric matters more than most men realize with cardigans. Cheap yarn pills fast and loses its shape by February. These are all in merino or lambswool blends that hold up properly over a season. The color is quieter than the work it does.
