While versatile, this isn’t the kind of sweater that’s fit for exercise or more adventurous outdoor activities. But if you’re looking for something more budget-friendly or athletic-leaning, have no fear! We’ll include 19 other sweaters for every kind of traveler. Our best pick overall is Patagonia’s Men's Recycled Wool Sweater thanks to its durability, versatility, and choice of environmentally friendly materials. For her, brands like Patagonia, Naadam, and The Elder Statesman are the best, and we tend to agree. Webster looks at materials and weight when picking out a quality sweater, as these things help determine whether or not it will be able to stand the test of time. “When you get that weird, sweaty feeling inside of your clothes, it’s coming from those synthetic materials.” But what makes for a good quality sweater? According to Amanda Webster, business development consultant and founding member at Double-Major – a fashion and lifestyle consultancy – the first thing we should look at is the material: “100 percent wool, 100 percent cashmere, 100 percent cotton, those are your ideal, especially for a sweater.” While polyester or synthetic materials aren’t necessarily a bad thing, it means the piece ”is not going to be as breathable,” says Webster.
Weather has the tendency to turn at the worst possible moment, so it’s always good to have your favorite sweater on hand, just in case.
It’s a doubly handy bit of advice to remember when packing for any trip. Your mother was right, you should never leave home without a sweater.
