The 2026 GQ Sweater Report

Probably to the surprise of no one, we think a lot about sweaters. Knitwear is simple until you start pulling on a loose thread and suddenly you’re deep into fabrics, collars, vintage references, and the strange alchemy that makes a sweater perfect.

Which brings us to The Report: a recurring series that goes deep on one solitary product category at a time—published whenever we get around to it. First up: sweaters.

Inside, you’ll find:

  • An ode to a humble ’90s Abercrombie & Fitch relic
  • A quick roundup of the small-batch sweater specialists we love
  • A vintage dealer's grail-tier knit
  • A highly calibrated sweater matrix separating freaky knits from normie staples
And plenty more. If you’re hunting for your next go-to knit, we’ve got a few leads.

These have a slightly lower-profile than some other Tyrolean derbies, which also means they're a little less jarring when switching up from a sneaker or loafer.
