THE FALL STYLE ISSUE: THE CABLE KNIT SWEATER


ome garments earn their reputation by virtue of color or pattern, some by their texture. The cable-knit is arguably the most iconic of the latter — typically found in solid, relatively muted tones, it’s those fisherman-inspired cables that give it so much punch. As versatile as a solid … only better.

Which is why we’re into this number from the apparel wizards at Uniqlo — comes in five different handsome hues, all of which you could pick up for the cost of one fancier number that, believe us when we tell you, ain’t gonna make a lick of difference when you’re putting the whole look together.

So get your sweater experimentation on. Any time you’d do a v-neck or regular crew, throw one of these babies into the mix instead. You’ll be amazed at the results.

This right here is a coat. A go-to-hell coat, if you will. A prime example of a case where keeping everything else muted is the name of the game, and a muted piece with that extra bit of texture steps in to keep folks on their toes.
