The Cortina Textured Quarter-Zip
Depth of texture. Height of luxury.
The Cortina Quarter-Zip is designed for the man who wants his knitwear to have character. While smooth knits are essential for layering, the Cortina stands out with its distinctive tactile surface and architectural details, making it a centerpiece of your winter rotation.
Why is it unique? The defining feature is the Structured Yoke Construction. Notice the change in knitting pattern around the neck and chest—this subtle geometric framing draws the eye upward and visually broadens the chest, creating a powerful, masculine silhouette.
Crafted from a mid-weight blend, it offers more substantial warmth than our fine-gauge knits. The rich, ribbed texture isn't just for aesthetics; it provides natural elasticity, allowing the sweater to move with you while retaining its shape perfectly throughout the day.
Product Highlights:
-
Architectural Knit: The specialized stitching around the collar adds a level of design complexity rarely seen in basics.
-
Tactile Depth: A rich surface texture that elevates the garment beyond a simple flat knit.
-
Mid-Weight Warmth: Substantial enough to be worn alone on crisp days, yet breathable enough for indoor comfort.
-
Structured Collar: The heavier gauge allows the collar to stand firmly when zipped, offering better wind protection.
How to Wear It: This piece thrives on contrast. Because of its rich texture, pair it with the smooth finish of the Roma Sartorial Trousers for a balanced look. It also pairs exceptionally well with dark denim and leather boots for a rugged, sophisticated "Après-ski" aesthetic.
