Men's Sweaters

A good sweater for the Indian context has to do something most overseas designs don't: keep you warm in a Delhi morning fog without overheating you by 11am in the office. Basics sweaters are cut in Comfort Fit — relaxed through the body with a straight hem and ribbed cuffs that hold their shape. Knits use 100% cotton or cotton-polyester blends — warm enough for the North Indian winter rotation (October to February in Delhi, Lucknow, Chandigarh) but breathable enough to wear under a jacket without trapping heat. The range covers crew-neck and v-neck styles in solid and subtly patterned knits. Colours span 9 families — classic navy, charcoal grey, brown, and olive as the foundation winter-wardrobe palette, with deeper purples, reds, and yellows for variety. Construction details — flat-lock seams that don't itch, fully fashioned shoulders that hold their line, ribbed hems that don't curl — matter as much as the knit pattern, and these are where Basics sweaters earn their place over generic fast-fashion knits. Layered over a shirt or worn on its own over a t-shirt, the range is built for everyday winter wear that lasts more than one season. Sizes run true; if you're between sizes, go down for a closer fit (especially crew-necks worn alone) or up for layering room over a thicker shirt. Most weights work from late October through February in North India and through January in the South. Care is straightforward — hand wash or a gentle machine cycle, lay flat to dry, and they hold up year on year.
