What we carry
Knitwear that holds up to a Milwaukee winter
With cold winds off the lake for much of the year, knitwear is a working part of a Milwaukee wardrobe rather than an extra. We carry V-neck sweaters and quarter-zip knits in a range of colors, so you can see the shade and feel the knit before you choose.
It also pairs well with tailoring made for you. See our custom suits in Milwaukee, blazers in Milwaukee, and custom pants in Milwaukee.

Why we carry it
Layering that keeps the line of your clothes
When the temperature drops, most men reach for the thickest sweater they own and lose the shape of everything underneath. A fine knit with a clean neckline keeps you warm without adding bulk at the shoulders or waist.
We help you choose knits that sit flat under a jacket and still look right on their own. For more on dressing well in the colder months, see custom suit trends in Milwaukee and Chicago.

Questions from Milwaukee clients
Is the knitwear made to measure?
No. Our knitwear is ready to wear, so you choose from what is in the studio and try your size. For pieces made to your measurements, see our custom suits in Milwaukee and blazers in Milwaukee.
What styles and colors do you carry?
V-neck sweaters and quarter-zip knits, in colors that currently include pale yellow, burgundy, taupe, navy, and charcoal. Stock changes, so mention what you are looking for when you book.
How should a sweater fit?
The shoulder seam should sit at the edge of your shoulder, the hem should land around your belt line, and the sleeves should reach your wrist. It should feel close to the body without pulling across the chest.
Is a knit warm enough on its own in winter?
For short trips between buildings, often yes. For longer time outdoors, a knit works best as a mid layer under a coat. Choose a size that is close but not tight so there is room for a shirt underneath.
Can I wear a knit under a blazer?
Yes. A V-neck over an open-collar or collared shirt is the easiest combination, and a fine quarter-zip works under a casual jacket. Pick a slim knit so the jacket sits flat.
Do you serve clients outside Milwaukee?
Yes. We also carry knitwear at our studios in Rosemont, IL and Libertyville, IL. See all studios on our knitwear page.
