GLENN | Lightweight half-zip for layering

It lives in the back of the car. That is not a criticism, it is why I bought it.

The sweater problem in a place like this is not winter, it is air conditioning. Restaurants at sixty-eight degrees, the doctor's waiting room, the movie theater. What you need is not a warm sweater, it is a thin one you can carry without noticing and put on when the room turns cold.

This one is knit light rather than heavy. It folds down small enough to leave in the car, the half zip opens the neck when you have had enough of it, and in three plain colors it goes over whatever you already had on.

Why men our age keep coming back to it

• It is the air conditioning sweater. Light enough to carry all day and put on when a room turns cold on you.
• It folds down small. Thin knit, so it lives in a car or a bag rather than on your arm.
• The zip vents it. Open the neck and it cools off fast instead of having to come off entirely.
• Three plain colors. Black, White and Brown, all of which go over anything.

How it fits

True to size over a shirt. Sizes S through 3XL. This is a layering piece, so it is cut to go over something rather than against the skin. If you are between two sizes, take the larger one.

A few recent reviews

Bought it for restaurants. It has earned its keep in every one of them.

Thin but not flimsy. Washes well so far.

The brown is a warm one. Goes with the khakis I already had.
