As Autumn Winter 2025 arrives, men’s knitwear becomes the cornerstone of the modern wardrobe. At Hanley & Co, the season’s focus is on craftsmanship, texture, and effortless versatility that moves from weekday to weekend. From soft merino blends to structured wool knits, each piece combines comfort and refinement, designed to layer easily beneath coats or stand confidently on its own.
This year’s leading trends centre around cardigans, half zip jumpers, and quarter zip sweaters — pieces that combine timeless appeal with modern practicality. Chunky cable knits and soft-touch wools remain essential, while lighter fine knits introduce a tailored edge to everyday looks.
We’re also proud to introduce new brand arrivals from Wool & Co and SAND Copenhagen, both bringing a fresh take on premium men’s knitwear — crafted in Italy with attention to detail and an appreciation for comfort, fit, and form.
Whether you’re updating your office attire or layering for outdoor weekends, this guide is your roadmap to the best men’s knitwear in Ireland this season.
