It’s always a pleasure to come across what you might call a pleasant surprise in the world of menswear essentials, like the fact that a brand that makes some of your favorite jeans also makes a host of other men’s style staples to go along with ’em.

That’s where Mott and Bow enters the fray — and your wardrobe — by making not only some of my favorite jeans on the market, but one of the best cashmere sweaters for men out there. The Mott and Bow Bergen Cashmere Crew Sweater looks simple enough on the surface, but dial down more closely and realize that it’s about as luxe as it gets — and a stellar value for the price tag.

This handsome, subtly stylish cashmere crew hits all the right notes, I’ve found, in terms of stylish cashmere sweaters. In my experience, Mott and Bow men’s sweaters are soft and yet supple, yet never flimsy – they also hold their shape nicely when worn on their own, or atop an Oxford shirt (a personal favorite combination of mine).

Plus, the crewneck design of the Mott and Bow Bergen Cashmere Crew Sweater — complete with ribbed cuffs and a ribbed neckline — is versatile enough to stand up to casual looks (like a pair of Mott and Bow jeans) or more refined style moves (like stretch chinos and leather Chelsea boots).

It also comes in five easy-to-style colors, including the personal favorite Hunter Green as shown above — with Mott and Bow, you’ve certainly got options.

The Mott and Bow Bergen Cashmere Crew Sweater is also available in a nice array of well-fitted sizes — I’ve found that Mott and Bow men’s sweaters run true to size, and feature plenty of room to comfortably layer.

The mid-weight cashmere fabric is neither too thick (Read: Hot!) nor too flimsy, something else I certainly appreciate when it comes to the Mott and Bow Bergen Cashmere Crew Sweater. No matter the color you select this season, I’d wager this elegant-yet-accessible cashmere option could quickly become a new daily staple.
