What is a turtleneck sweater?
A turtleneck is a sweater with a rolled up or upright collar. The turtleneck dates back to the 15th century and has been commonly worn by sailors, athletes and workers since the 19th century. When you put on a turtleneck sweater for men, you will never have a cold neck. A turtleneck is often associated with a turtleneck sweater. A turtleneck sweater and a turtleneck are not quite the same thing. Both garments have a collar, but the collar of the turtleneck is less high than that of the turtleneck sweater. The turtleneck reaches about halfway down the neck, while the turtleneck covers the entire neck. Both sweaters are a fashion statement these days and are part of many men's wardrobe.
What is the best way to combine men's turtleneck sweaters?
For the trendy combination in fine knit style, the "turtleneck" only needs a few moves: black turtleneck sweater with black and white checked fabric trousers, black leather loafers with trendy bridge design and casual leather jacket or quilted vest. You want to wear the turtleneck also in business? Here, the fabric and the collar shape are crucial. While a close-fitting knitted turtleneck made of extra-fine merino wool under a jacket is definitely suitable for the office, the coarse crochet XL turtleneck should only be used for leisure.
