Believe it or not, you sometimes need to look to the past to build your menswear wardrobe for the present. That adage holds especially true as temperatures plummet: The relief in terms of warmth, comfort and style can be found decades, even centuries ago, at least as far as the best cable knit sweaters for men are concerned. With more grit and a thicker, more burly construction than a more refined cashmere V-neck or crewneck sweater, the cable knit sweater is the kind of knit a gentleman explorer like Hemingway prized. And its intricate weave takes on a life of its own, hailing from the Irish islands of Aran — the rope-like weave adds decoration but bolsters the sweater (and its wearer) against frigid sea sprays and rain. Heck, Chris Evans famously wore one in the 2019 crime-thriller-comedy Knives Out, and the way his character pulls it off is as good a reason as any to buy one for yourself. RELATED: Best Cashmere Sweaters for Men Today, it’s still just as rugged in looks and functionality, but it takes on various forms as a cardigan, a cable-knit turtleneck or an especially brawny crewneck. You’ll find them made in small batches by luxury ateliers, made by brands you recognize, and above all, made by companies that respect heritage and history in a garment. Flint and Tinder Aran Cable Knit Crewneck Go straight to the source (in this case, the Aran Islands) from a rugged retailer you can trust. Thick lambswool lends this sweater exceptional warmth, while the intricate weave is modeled off those classic Aran sweaters worn by fishermen in the Galway Bay. It’s a statement piece on its own, able to function easily with dark blue jeans and trusty, broken-in leather boots. $168 at Huckberry.com  Anatoly & Sons Green Lupetto Cable Knit Sweater For as much as the best cable knit sweaters harken back to rugged outdoor roots on the high seas, there’s also a sense of elegance to modern editions of the prized style. Anatoly & Sons, a luxury menswear atelier out of Oakland, Ca., nods to the more elevated side of the cable knit sweater, using high-quality Extra Fine Merino Wool from Zegna Baruffa. This sweater should make waves of its own beneath a tasteful wool blazer this winter, and the good news is, Anatoly & Sons also sells fine tailoring. $403 at AnatolyS.com  Wythe Highland Cable Knit Sweater The world of cable knit sweaters takes on an air of new intrigue in modern times: For instance, this tasteful cable knit moves vertically even as it moves horizontally, and it’s made with soft yet durable Andean wool. The result is a sweater you can easily dress up with charcoal trousers or dress down with expertly faded, relaxed blue jeans and chunky brogue boots. $248 at Huckberry.com  Hartford Cable Knit Roll Neck Sweater The best cable knit sweaters strike the right balance between luxury and rugged appeal, with the warmth to stand up to a weekend at a log cabin and the suave design to fit right in as you enjoy an Old Fashioned at a dark cocktail bar. This roll neck version of the classic cable knit fits in handsomely in either locale, with a rich ecru color that would make Hemingway proud. $330 at MrPorter.com  The Tie Bar Cable Shawl Cardigan Sweater You’d be surprised at the number of forms the classic cable knit can take on, including in a beefed-up version of the shawl cardigan. This sub-$100 cable knit sweater is a prime way to dip your toes into the category, with a vintage-inspired look and a super-soft feel right out of the box. Plus, its navy shade goes with just about anything in your wardrobe, charcoal dress pants and tan chinos included. $98 at TheTieBar.com  Amazon Essentials Cotton Cable Crewneck Sweater Like the various textures and washes of a denim shirt or your favorite pair of jeans, there’s more than one way to craft a cable knit sweater. The cable knit, in this case, takes on a more subdued form (and a lower price tag) via Amazon Essentials. It’s priced so well, you could likely score more than one colorway to make it your signature style. From $23.90 at Amazon.com  Askdeer Cable Knit Pullover Sweater Cable knit sweaters offer a difference in your menswear wardrobe – and your sweater rotation — that you can truly feel. While you might opt for a sleek cashmere sweater for a day at the office, a cable knit sweater functions more readily underneath, say, a waxed field jacket. This option from Askdeer should prove perfect for layering, and it comes in a classic navy color — with a fairly agreeable price tag, to boot. $33.98 at Amazon.com  Ralph Lauren Cable Knit Sweater Think back to the 2012 James Bond epic Skyfall. In the film, Bond dons a teal jumper of sorts, unearthed from a wardrobe at his family’s old estate. Still with us? This Ralph Lauren cable knit sweater isn’t quite the same thing, but it fits with the right vibe — the sort of sweater you can layer underneath field-ready gear and wear for years to come without it falling out of style, thanks to Ralph Lauren. From $103.60 at Amazon.com  Aran Crafts Cable Knit Crew Fiber and fabric has come a long way since the days of the original fisherman sweaters with a hardy cable knit. Unlike the days of old, this Aran Craft sweater is now made from merino wool, which regulates your temperature, keeping you warm on brisk days — but at just the right level. The cable knit gives that merino wool a sturdy thickness, and a range of timeless color options should deliver versatility in your winter wardrobe. From $60 at Amazon.com  Tommy Hilfiger Cable Knit Sweater The Irish roots of the cable knit sweater haven’t kept it from being adopted by tastemaking, iconic American brands — there’s also a certain preppy appeal to some versions of the cable knit sweater, like this option from Tommy Hilfiger. Wear yours over a white Oxford shirt for a timeless, crisp look at the office.
