The Grey Fox Ginormous Christmas Jumper Guide

Tuesday, 11 December 2012

The Christmas sweater has generally been considered as something to avoid by the discerning man of style. However, the traditionally-patterned jumper is being reassessed by even Scrooge-like sartorialists. It is finding its way back onto the ski slopes and being worn seriously in a way not seen since the sixties.


You can now be festive while retaining some semblance of good taste. Here's a selection of Scandinavian-style and other knitwear to suit most budgets.

If you market a Christmas jumper of quality that's not here, please let me know.

ADDENDUM - Having posted this I see that Save the Children are raising funds through a Christmas Jumper Day on Friday (14th December). To encourage you to donate, Jon Snow appears in his jumper at the end of this post -
