Over the past few seasons, menswear has shifted. Tight silhouettes and fitted jumpers have made way for something easier, looser, and much more wearable: the baggy sweater.
It’s the kind of piece that looks as good thrown over cargos as it does layered under a wool coat — and it’s showing up everywhere, from Scandi street style to London coffee shops and even on Pinterest winter outfit boards.
At Triads Clothing, we’re seeing a huge response to oversized knitwear — not just because it looks good, but because it feels good. The new wave of men’s sweaters mixes laid-back fits, premium materials, and versatile colour palettes, perfect for styling through autumn and winter.
Searches for “oversized knitwear men” and “baggy sweater outfit ideas” have surged this year — and it’s easy to see why. This look bridges comfort, confidence, and effortlessness.
It’s not about hiding under oversized clothes; it’s about playing with proportion. A looser sweater on top balances perfectly with straight-leg denim, workwear trousers, or even tailored joggers.
Think of it as Scandinavian minimalism meets streetwear practicality — clean, relaxed, and timeless.
Here are a few standout examples from our current lineup that perfectly embody this trend:
Carhartt WIP “Shawn Sweater” — A structured, heavyweight knit that feels both rugged and refined. This one nods to Carhartt’s workwear roots while fitting the modern oversized silhouette that’s dominating the season.
Les Deux “Globe Crewneck Knit in Dark Sand” — The epitome of Scandinavian simplicity. Its soft cotton blend and looser fit make it a layering essential — ideal for throwing over a tee or wearing solo with relaxed denim.
Ralph Lauren Long Sleeve Pullover in Navy — For those who prefer a classic label, this Polo piece hits the sweet spot between smart and slouchy. The relaxed drape and soft texture give it that casual-luxe energy perfect for off-duty styling.
These are the kinds of sweaters that look effortless but feel intentional — the ones you’ll pull out again and again when the temperature drops.
The baggy sweater trend thrives on balance. Here’s how to nail the look:
Pair with Workwear Bottoms: Oversized knits and straight or baggy cargos (like Carhartt Aviation or Regular Cargo Pants) are a perfect match.
Layer Lightly: Go for a visible base layer — a white tee or thin roll neck adds contrast and depth.
Play with Texture: Combine soft knits with rugged fabrics like denim, canvas, or nylon for a tactile finish.
Go Tonal: Shades of beige, grey, navy, and sand are big right now — they layer effortlessly and keep the outfit cohesive.
Keep Accessories Minimal: A Carhartt beanie or subtle cap adds the final touch without overpowering the fit.
It’s all about making oversized look deliberate — relaxed but not baggy, casual but never careless.
What sets the oversized knit trend apart from a passing TikTok moment is its longevity. These aren’t throwaway pieces — they’re wardrobe anchors.
A quality sweater from Carhartt WIP, Les Deux, or Ralph Lauren is made to age well, keeping its shape, colour, and texture season after season.
At Triads, we handpick these styles because they’re timeless and trend-proof — the kind of investment pieces you’ll wear for years, not weeks.
