Knitwear
Knitwear is as essential to the capsule wardrobe as socks and underwear. From the classic round collar, to the elegant turtleneck, to the versatile cardigan, fine knit sweaters made from high-quality, mulesing-free merino wool will keep you warm all year round.
Knitwear: a menswear essential
THE NINES brings together under its men's knitwear selection timeless pieces developed to face the cold with elegance and durability. In close collaboration with renowned spinners and family workshops with a long-standing heritage of expertise, we select noble materials such as extra-fine merino wool or cashmere for their softness against the skin and their thermoregulating properties.
Knitwear: from underwear to the greatest luxury houses
In its technical definition, a knit stitch is an isolated loop of yarn. All products made up of loops are therefore classed as knitwear. But where does knitwear come from? Before 1900, knitwear was used exclusively for underwear or bonnets. It was not until 1920 that the first true knitwear garments appeared, thanks to Jacques Rodier, who created the first knitted fabrics.

Knitwear in all its forms
In our knitwear selection, you will find crew-neck as well as roll-neck jumpers, and cardigans too. Some knits are finer than others, with a wide range of colours and different collars for different looks. The beauty of knitwear is that it can be interpreted in many very different ways.
Knitwear, or in other words, absolute comfort
Knitwear is a wardrobe staple for all of us. We all own at least one knitwear item, whether it's a jumper, a scarf, or socks. Knitwear garments are often our most comfortable pieces, as well as being attractive and keeping us warm when the knit is made from wool. Wearing knitwear could not be simpler — you can wear it over a t-shirt or a shirt. But if you prefer, you can also wear it directly against the skin with no risk of irritation.

A question about our collections?
Le choix d’une maille dépend de sa matière, de son épaisseur et de l’usage souhaité. La laine apporte chaleur et élégance, tandis que le coton ou le lin offrent davantage de légèreté et de respirabilité.
Les principales mailles pour homme sont le pull col rond, le col V, le col roulé, le cardigan ou encore le gilet en maille. Elles se déclinent dans différentes matières et épaisseurs pour s’adapter à tous les styles et toutes les saisons.
Les mailles légères en coton, lin ou mélanges fins sont idéales au printemps et en été. Les modèles en laine ou en cachemire offrent davantage de chaleur et de confort pour l’automne et l’hiver.
Le pull se porte en l’enfilant par la tête et possède généralement une forme plus simple. Le cardigan s’ouvre sur le devant grâce à des boutons ou une fermeture, ce qui le rend plus facile à superposer.
Une maille se porte facilement avec une chemise pour une tenue élégante ou avec un t-shirt pour un style plus décontracté. Associée à un pantalon bien coupé ou un blazer, elle apporte une allure raffinée tout en restant confortable.
