Quarter-Zip Jumpers We’re Loving

If you’d asked us in 2010 whether we were excited for a new range of quarter zip jumpers, we might have laughed. For a long time, these jumpers were associated with men of a certain age who lacked a sense of style. But the new wave is here, and they’re back in fashion. 

Quarter zips were popular for quite a while but then disappeared. Of course, your dad probably still wore his proudly, but they certainly weren’t the height of modern fashion. Thankfully, the new generation of quarter zips looks a lot better, and there are some that we’re loving! 

Plain colours

The beauty of quarter zips is their versatility. You can wear them practically anywhere, but that, of course, depends on the style of the jumper. Loud, outrageous colours won’t exactly be a hit in the workplace, but subtle, plain colours are. 

Basic quarter zips can be worn with jeans, chinos, shorts and work trousers. You can wear a shirt and tie underneath for a classy, modern look. With fashion, sometimes less is more. 

Simple logos

You can get quarter zips that are almost a plain colour, with one small exception—a logo. Logos have been part of the quarter zip jumper landscape for a long time, and nothing has changed in 2022. 

Here at ORTC, we have some quarter zips with a small flag logo, and we’ve got others with our brand name. These are incredibly popular because the logos aren’t in your face. Instead, they add a touch of class to an otherwise plain jumper. 

A sporty alternative

When going for a sporty or even a streetwear look, hoodies are massively popular. However, many people love the comfort, warmth and freedom of a hoodie without ever using the hood. If that sounds like you, why not try a sporty-looking quarter zip jumper? 

Whether it’s a larger logo, a softer colour choice or even a collegiate stripe, you can get a cool sporty look from your quarter zip. Plus, they’re a bit more socially acceptable in places like offices, restaurants and other venues that might look down on a hoodie. So just think of it as a hoodless hoodie! 

Collegiate stripes

Speaking of collegiate stripes, we love this style all year round. A collegiate stripe design usually features two stripes across the chest and extending to the sleeves. The stripes are usually in direct contrast with the rest of the jumper, which creates a sleek, eye-catching look without going crazy on the colour. 

Collegiate stripes look great with anything, too, whether you wear them with jeans for a smart-casual look or track pants for something more casual.
