3 things you need to learn to achieve a stylish knitwear coordinate

It is no exaggeration to say that knitwear, with its many points of particularity such as “type of knitting machine,” “yarn thickness,” “knitting pattern,” “material,” and “silhouette,” has the unlimited potential to enhance one’s sense of style. In this issue, we introduce recommended knitwear while extracting three points common to men who achieve stylish coordination with knitwear!

1) “Select knitwear that matches your TPO.

Knitwear is an item with a wide range of casual designs, and by choosing knitwear that suits your TPO, you can achieve the ideal coordination. For example, if you want to coordinate a beautiful outfit for the warm biz season, a high gauge knit with a fine, dense knit will be a good choice.

High-gauge knitwear goes well with highly formal items such as wool coats, tailored jackets, and slacks, making it ideal not only for business occasions but also for a classy casual look like that of a stylish Italian. On the other hand, it is not suitable for combination with highly casual items such as damaged jeans and baggy pants. For those who prefer a rough, casual look, it is better to choose a knit of middle gauge or higher, which has a rougher knit than a high gauge knit.

Another option is to choose knitwear with a good balance between formal and casual wear. For example, knitwear in 12 gauge that is not too high gauge, has a silhouette with just the right amount of room, and is designed with slim arms that can easily be worn under a jacket, can cover a wide range of styles, from beautiful to rough.

(2) “How to care for knitwear to maintain its texture

The strength of knitwear is that it can be worn for a long time while maintaining its good texture, as long as you know how to properly care for it. Fashionable people who wear knitwear stylishly and elegantly take thorough care of “furballs” and “stretching and sagging. Just a little care, such as removing furballs with a fluff ball remover or shaping with a steam iron, can make a great impression on those around you, so we urge you to learn how to properly care for your knitwear.

3) “Differentiation of one point by knitting fabric “

To create an appeal that is visually recognizable and different from the surroundings, it is important to select knitwear with a certain degree of design. If you are aiming for differentiation while maintaining a mature elegance, we recommend choosing knitwear with one-pointed accents in the knitting fabric. For example, a cardigan with a plain jersey knit as its core, but with a 2 x 2 ribbed knit on the front that has a distinctive uneven look.
