Gentlemen, sweater season is upon us! Colder months not only bring out the sweaters, they also tend to drain the colour right out of our wardrobes. Have you ever noticed how as the sun fades, we fall into a predictable palette of blacks, greys and navy blues? It's as if we're trying to blend into the colder and darker skies. It’s a safe bet, yes, but also a bit dull, don’t you think? So, why not brighten things up? Enter beige. Light shades like beige and cream can add a bit of warmth and brightness to those colder days, stopping your wardrobe from becoming one with the gloomy clouds. And come on, it’s beige. We’re not advocating for bright purple here! But how to style a beige sweater without looking boring? As always, we’ve got you covered. Here are three timeless ways to style a beige sweater for men.
You might think sweater season is all about piling on dark layers to stay warm, with style taking a back seat. But not so fast! There’s a large range of sweaters out there – fine knits, chunky knits, sweatshirts, hoodies, zip-hoodies and roll-necks – so you’ve got endless opportunities to change up your look. And when it comes to colours, beige is a bright option that offers a fresh alternative to the usual dark winter palette. Beige isn’t boring – it’s actually the key to mastering casual sophistication in the colder months. Here’s how to style different types of beige sweaters, so you stay cool, no matter the temperature.

Smart: Tone-on-Tone
For a sleek, smart look that’s business casual enough for the office but still sharp enough for drinks after work, go for a tonal beige-on-beige combo. Pair a beige sweatshirt with some beige chinos and round it off with white sneakers and a canvas bag. Et voilà – you’ve got a minimalist, effortless and sophisticated look. Plus it’s perfect for those who want to look neat but don’t want to overthink it. And when the chill sets in, throw on a cream-coloured trench coat and a matching ivory cap to take it up a notch. Trust us, you’ll be the crème de la crème of monochrome creme and beige styles.
For this look, the Perfect Sweatshirt from SANVT is ideal. Our luxurious heavyweight rendition of the classic American sweatshirt is versatile and timeless. Made from premium French Terry cotton, it’s soft, cosy and built to last through the coldest months. The Loopback material traps body heat, making sure you stay warm without sacrificing style. Honestly, it’s likely to be the world's best sweatshirt. But try it out for yourself!
Casual: Knit & Denim
If you're going for a more laid-back look, perhaps for the weekend or leisure, try pairing a beige knit sweater with a white t-shirt layered underneath and some light blue jeans. Roll up the cuffs on your jeans and finish off the look with loafers for that effortlessly cool vibe. This is an outfit that looks casual but with love for detail – it plays with texture (hello knit and denim) and strikes the perfect balance between put-together and relaxed. The light blue also goes pretty well with the warm beige, giving you that subtle contrast without going overboard. And when it gets a bit colder, swap the loafers for some Dr. Martens, throw on a bomber jacket and tie everything together with a chunky beige knit scarf.
Speaking of knits, the Perfect Knit Sweater from SANVT made from a cashmere-wool blend is the perfect essential for this look. Made from 100% recycled, eco-friendly materials, this jumper is also ultra soft. And thanks to a “fully-fashioned” knitting technique, SANVT makes sure there’s zero fabric waste in the process.
Comfy: Sweat Suit
Want to dial up the comfort without sacrificing style? Go full-on sweat suit with a beige hoodie and matching beige sweatpants. It’s the ultimate cosy, off-duty style. Complete the look with white sneakers and you’ve nailed that athleisure vibe. But this is not only a Netflix-and-chill outfit. You can upgrade the sweat set by swapping out your sneakers for some brown boots and throw on a long, tailored brown overcoat. Now you’ve got a look that’s not only comfortable but polished enough for a weekend stroll or casual coffee date. Add a beige beanie and a cool brown leather bag and you’re ready to go while staying cosy.
The Perfect Hoodie from SANVT made from French Terry is unbeatable for that sweat suit style. Handcrafted from 100% organic cotton, it’s soft, breathable and built to last. With its double-lined hood and reinforced seams, this hoodie is a long-term investment in both comfort and style. Perfect for those days when you want to look good but feel even better.
