Men's Half Zip Jumpers & Pullovers
A mens half zip jumper is the smart-casual piece that works almost everywhere. Choose a quarter-zip knit pullover, a striped or brushed half-zip, a collared cotton half-zip or a warm fleece pullover.
Why the half zip works
Zip it up to the collar on a windy walk or open it over a shirt at the office. The stand collar frames the face and looks tidier than a hoodie, yet it is just as easy to wear.
Knit or cotton
Knitted pullovers look sharper with chinos; the cotton half-zip with a collar feels relaxed and breathable.
Fleece for the outdoors
The half-zip fleece pullover is the one for dog walks, football on Sunday and cold mornings.

How to style a quarter zip
Wear it over a white T-shirt or an Oxford shirt, with jeans or chinos and clean trainers or loafers. Navy, grey and stripes are easy to mix with the rest of your wardrobe.
Fit and returns
Each pullover lists chest and length measurements in centimetres. Delivery is free across the UK and you have 30 days to return.
Frequently asked questions: Men's Half Zip Jumpers & Pullovers
What do you wear under a half zip jumper?
A plain white or grey T-shirt is the easiest option and shows a neat line at the open neck. For a smarter look, wear a collared shirt with the collar sitting over the zip. A thin long sleeve top works on cold days. Keep the base simple so the half zip stays the main piece.
Is a half zip the same as a quarter zip?
Almost. Both are pullovers with a short zip at the neck: a quarter zip opens a little less, a half zip a little further down the chest. The name changes from brand to brand, so check the photos for the zip length. On this page you will find both, including brushed, fleece and knitted styles.
Can you wear a half zip jumper to the office?
Yes, in a smart-casual office. Choose a dark knitted style in navy, black or grey and wear it over a collared shirt with chinos and leather shoes. A suede-patch or striped pullover suits a relaxed Friday, while fleece styles are better kept for weekends and the outdoors.
How do I wash a half zip pullover?
Close the zip and turn the pullover inside out before washing, so the teeth do not snag the knit or the fleece. Use a cool, gentle cycle and dry it flat or on a low line. Avoid fabric softener on fleece, as it can flatten the brushed surface and make it feel less warm.
