On today of all days, a luxurious and leisurely Christmas Day (Merry Christmas to all!), it feels right to be talking about as fine a winter style upgrade as you’re apt to find: Stepping into one of the best cashmere sweaters for men, and trusting one of the country’s best menswear designers to deliver a stylish version of the retro classic.

It’s a refined choice, and when it comes to this Todd Snyder Cashmere Cardigan, it’s about as versatile as it gets.

Yes, that’s right: One of the best cardigans for men is a versatile entry into your winter knitwear rotation. Let’s count the ways, shall we? Your new favorite cardigan works quite well for more than a few pursuits, including lounging at home alongside merino wool joggers.

After all, if you’re going to invest in something as nice (and relatively pricey) as the Todd Snyder Cashmere Cardigan, you might as well make the most of it.

And in my book, this handsome cardigan assuredly qualifies as the ultimate “house sweater,” so to speak, but it goes well beyond that as far as the best men’s cashmere sweaters are concerned. For dressing up slightly for post-holiday affairs alongside dark blue jeans, or for going all-out with charcoal corduroy trousers and a crisp white dress shirt, then yes, the Todd Snyder Cashmere Cardigan works quite nicely, indeed.

Take what Todd Snyder has to say, calling this cardigan an “elevated take on sporty essentials,” with a mid-weight fit that layers easily over Oxford shirting, a chambray buttondown or a performance dress shirt in equal measure.

The Snyder Olive color is another signature of the designer that makes the Todd Snyder Cashmere Cardigan both winter-friendly and yet perfectly well-suited to spring and fall layering — again, you’re going to want to get the most out of this cardigan by rocking it in multiple seasons.

And of course, starting right this instant — after Christmas and before the New Year — the Todd Snyder Cashmere Cardigan is an elegant, easily wearable choice that feels like a great style “splurge” to make right now. If you agree, then you’re in luck. Happy shopping, my friends.
