Men's waistcoats and cardigans: the elegance of fine knitwear

Discover our collection of men's waistcoats and cardigans, versatile pieces that combine comfort, elegance and ease of wear. In cashmere or other fine natural fibres, our styles come in a range of cuts, weights and finishes to complement a man's wardrobe through every season.

Buttoned cardigan, men's zip-up gilet, V-neck, shawl collar or hooded style: Mahogany revisits this knitwear essential through timeless or more contemporary designs, conceived to suit every style.

The men's cashmere waistcoat: softness and versatility

The men's cashmere waistcoat has one defining advantage: its versatility. Easy to put on and take off, it lends itself to layering and allows you to adapt your outfit to changing temperatures throughout the day.

Worn over a t-shirt with jeans, it creates a relaxed silhouette. Paired with a shirt and tailored trousers, the cardigan immediately takes on a more elegant air. Under a coat or jacket, a fine knit adds an extra layer of warmth without weighing down the silhouette.

The softness, lightness and naturally insulating properties of cashmere make it a particularly well-suited material for these everyday pieces.

Buttoned cardigan or zip-up gilet: a style for every man

A great classic of the male wardrobe, the men's buttoned cardigan captivates with its understated elegance. Its open front allows a shirt, polo or t-shirt to show through, making it easy to create a variety of combinations.

More contemporary in style, the zip-up gilet has a casual, practical appeal. Fully fastened when temperatures drop or worn open for a more relaxed silhouette, it fits effortlessly into everyday life.

Necklines also play a part in the character of each style. The V-neck remains a timeless staple, while the shawl collar adds volume and a warm, inviting look. Hooded styles, meanwhile, offer a more relaxed interpretation of the men's knitted waistcoat.

From the fine cardigan to heavier-knit waistcoats

Depending on the season, Mahogany offers its waistcoats and cardigans in different weights. A fine, lightweight knit is ideal for transitional weather, in the office or under a jacket. When the cold sets in, the heavier styles provide greater warmth and a more enveloping feel.

This variety means the men's cashmere cardigan can be worn throughout much of the year, allowing you to choose your knit according to the temperature as well as your personal style.

Stitch patterns, ribbing, cable knits, colour combinations and contrasting details further enrich the collection and lend greater character to each style.

Cashmere and other natural fibres

While cashmere holds a central place in the collection, Mahogany men's waistcoats and cardigans are also available in other natural fibres depending on the style.

Yak, baby alpaca and camel wool each have their own feel, appearance and individual qualities. These materials allow you to explore different textures and sensations while retaining the comfort and elegance that define beautiful knitwear.

From plain styles to two-tone or mixed-material designs, each cardigan offers a different interpretation of this menswear essential.

The men's cardigan, an essential piece for every season

Sitting between a jumper and a light jacket, the cardigan is one of the most versatile pieces in a man's wardrobe. It pairs effortlessly with professional attire, a relaxed weekend look or those moments when an extra layer becomes necessary.
