Looking for the best fall sweaters for guys? You’ve come to the right place.
Trust us when we say, the team’s collective dream is to digital-window shop for autumn layers for you guys all day (while listening to Taylor Swift’s Folklore, naturally).
That’s why this list is, well, sort of long. We didn’t hold back. There’s all kinds of styles of sweaters, from cardigans and sweater jackets to crewnecks and turtleneck sweaters.
But don’t be intimidated! Feel free to stop scrolling as soon as you see the one. You know, that fall sweater that makes you actually look forward to colder temperatures and cozying up indoors.
So, grab your light jackets and start making room for more layers to your autumn looks.
Check out the (updated!) 20 best fall sweaters for guys:
1. Billy Reid, $348
Wear it well: When it comes to men’s sweaters with this much texture, let a more streamlined, simple jacket anchor your outfit. You don’t want to have too much going on.
2. The Tie Bar, $78
Wear it well: Look, sometimes you just have to treat yourself to a trendy-yet-somehow-also-a-throwback style you’re not sure you can pull off and tell yourself you’re worth it.

This front-button, collared polo knit number from The Tie Bar definitely fits the bill.
3. Buck Mason, $228
Wear it well: “Is it time I buy a turtleneck?” is an outdated question. The answer is, and has been, yes, for quite some time now.
This dark navy style from Buck Mason in superfine cashmere should get you over the hump nicely.
Just treat it like the neutral it is and wear it with…pretty much everything.
4. Banana Republic, $190
Wear it well: This creamy cashmere sweater hoodie would look so good in your work wardrobe, whether you’re home taking calls on Zoom or in the office.
5. J.Crew, $98
Wear it well: Yes. Another. Turtleneck.
Can’t stop, won’t stop.
This rollneck style has a “Pacey from Dawson’s Creek” vibe, which is very on trend for fall 2024, if you didn’t know.
Once the temperature dips a little lower, top it with a parka for an easily elegant winter look.
6. L.L. Bean, $119
Wear it well: You should know by now how we feel about a fisherman’s sweater, so let’s just leave it at that before it gets uncomfortable for all of us, shall we? Wear yours under a leather jacket for extra levels of cool.

Simple, stylish, and you’re out the door.
7. Abercrombie & Fitch, $100
Wear it well: Sports! What a concept.
If you’ve got a team you love, sport it instead of your usual hoodie for game day. Wear it over a t-shirt with carpenter pants or light wash denim.
8. La Ligne, $325
Wear it well: In this striped mariner sweater, you’ll look uber-comfortable, but not in a sloppy way.
Perfect for fall outdoor (and heck, indoor!) adventures.
9. Wills, $188
Wear it well: There’s a time and a place for easy-breezy pullovers. And that time is early September all the way through…oh, March?
So don’t be surprised if you find yourself reaching for this lightweight lambswool crewneck sweater in a handsome textured navy color over and over again this season.
10. Ayr, $245
Wear it well: Called “The Big Softie” with good effing reason, there’s a good chance you won’t take this sweater off until spring.
11. Corridor, $350
Wear it well: A stylist on our team recently recommended this cool mohair sweater for a shopping client, and we just couldn’t keep it to ourselves!
Yes, it’s a little pricy, but super stylish, and you’ll feel great every time you pull it on. Wear it casually with jeans or twill pants, or dress it up under a sturdy, dark-colored suit.
And sure, not every guy can pull off – or would want to pull off! – a sweater with all the colors of a Lisa Frank backpack. But if you think you can, wouldn’t this look so great with dark rinse denim and a leather jacket?
Mm hmm, I thought so…
12. Naadam, $75
Wear it well: Naadam updated their $75 cashmere sweater with an expanded range of colors, meaning more options for your fall wardrobe.
The result is ::chef’s kiss:: good.
13. Gap, $79
Wear it well: We love this affordable rugby sweater from Gap. It looks so collegiate, and you can wear it so many ways.
Dress it down with ripped jeans and Converse for a “bad boy on break from boarding school” vibe, or with black dress pants for an office outfit.
14. Faherty, $178
Wear it well: We’re not going to argue over whether or not this “sweater shirt” from Faherty belongs in a fall roundup of the most stylish, coziest sweaters for guys to wear this season.
Because who cares? You would look great—and feel oh-so-comfy—wearing it. And really, isn’t that really what matters?
15. Mr Porter, $555
Wear it well: Mr Porter’s “Mr P” line continues to kill it.
This slim-fit, merino wool polo sweater could be the foundation of so many outfits this year. Wear it with tailored pants like the model above (sneakers or not is up to you!), or to date night with your crispest pair of jeans.
Part of the line’s permanent collection (so you know it’s popular), this long-sleeved polo is a slightly smarter alternative to your standard crewneck. It’s knitted from ultra-soft cashmere and has a neat collar, two-button placket and ribbed trims.
Oh, and the trim silhouette is totally ideal for layering, so don’t be afraid to throw it under a blazer or any of your favorite fall jackets.
16. Quince, $129
Wear it well: Team SG’s Gabi dropped this Mongolian cashmere waffle-knit sweater with buttons at the neck into a client’s style plan this month.
It comes in three other fall-appropriate hues, so consider stocking up!
17. Mango, $79
Wear it Well: Zero notes on this picture-perfect, creamy 100% wool turtleneck sweater from Mango, which comes in four neutral colors.
Wear it exactly like the model above. Or, dress it up under a suit for holiday parties. Wear it with jeans on the weekend. The world is your turtleneck-outfitted oyster!
18. Kiel James Patrick, $148
Wear it well: Can’t you just see yourself wearing this striped sweater to work with a textured dress pants?
Or on a laid-back date, with light wash jeans and your favorite boots? On the weekend, huddled around a fire with your friends, layered under a broken-in denim jacket? I could go on…
19. Everlane, $128
Wear it well: Looking for an affordable fall sweater that looks totally luxe, and offers stellar comfort and warmth? Well, you’ve found it in this Everlane hoodie in felted merino wool.
But a warning: yes, it’s a hoodie, but it’s also dry clean only so be sure to care for it properly if you want it to last!
20. Taylor Stitch, $198
Wear it well: Our team recently recommended this sweater jacket to a shopping client, and we just couldn’t keep it to ourselves!
It’s stylish, has a chef’s kiss perfect fit, and rings up under $200. Bottom line? It’s a great quality sweater you’ll have forever.
