There are a lot of jumpers out there to choose from when shopping for your winter wardrobe this year, especially if you’re looking for knits on the high street. Some, however, are better than others, and there’s one particular knit that the whole Who What Wear team (and the fashion world in general) has been hoping would come back in stock for 2023 since it repeatedly sold out last winter. Arket’s cable-knit wool jumper first launched a few years ago and sold out within just days of it landing online, probably thanks to the fact that an army of influential fashion people jumped on it so quickly and then proceeded to share it all over the internet.
We missed out last year, and since it’s such a timeless knit, it’s no surprise we’ve seen it worn repeatedly by the lucky people who managed to get their hands on one ever since. The torment was real. But this week, our wardrobe prayers were answered—just in time for this cold front we’re having—because not only is this knit back in a grey shade, but Arket has doubled down on their range of cable-knit jumpers to satisfy our needs. Apparently the high-street retailer, which is known in the industry for doing these kind of minimalistic, elevated wardrobe staples so well, cottoned on to the fact that the waiting list for this jumper was incredibly long.
