Kiton Half-Zip Mock-Neck Sweater Red

A half-zip mock-neck sweater from Kiton in pure cashmere, here in red. The zip lets you wear the collar open over a shirt or close it against the cold. The rib knit gives it a sporty texture, and a round zip puller adds a neat finishing detail.

Cashmere is prized for its fine, soft fibres, which give real warmth for very little weight, so the sweater layers easily under a jacket or coat without adding bulk. Ribbed cuffs and hem keep the shape neat wear after wear. Kiton knits it in its own factory in Fidenza, Italy: the Neapolitan house, founded in 1968, applies the same attention to its knitwear as to the hand-tailored jackets it is famous for.

Pair it with the Wool Blazer and flannel trousers, or with the Limited Edition Five-Pocket Jeans at the weekend. It also comes in navy.
