This Best-Selling Toteme Knit Is Back and Will Make Your Wardrobe a More Luxurious Place

In fashion, you know something is a sound investment when you see it being worn year after year, and that's certainly the case with Toteme's striped jumper. First released in 2019, the jumper sparked a Breton-knitwear movement that hasn't slowed in the slightest over the past three years. As we head into winter, Instagram's finest have begun digging out their Toteme originals in preparation for the colder temperatures. But what is it that makes this particular knit so special?

How Does Toteme's Striped Sweater Fit?

While I'm yet to invest in it myself (mark my words, 2024 will be the year I finally do), Humaa Hussain, Who What Wear UK's junior branded content editor, has and sings its praises. "The chunky material is so comforting when the weather turns colder, but my favourite part is the slightly oversized fit. I have it in both colours, the black striped one I got in a size small and it is perfectly roomy, but for the white striped one I wanted to go even slouchy and got a medium and I honestly love them both. Bonus points: as a modest dresser the slightly elongated fit makes it work within my wardrobe seamlessly.”

Toteme's striped sweater now comes in four chic colourways.

Is Toteme's Striped Sweater Worth It?

I totally understand the appeal—it's ageless, versatile, and premium-looking. Of course, it should look premium—it's designer, and the price reflects that, but even I, someone who is famously stingy with their money, can see it is a worthy investment. In addition to the impressive qualities listed above, it's also got an incredibly chic silhouette, with just the right amount of oversizing. The wide sleeves and high neckline set it apart from other striped sweaters on the scene, making it all the more covetable.

In a testament to its versatility, below, I've assembled a handful of ways influencers are styling their Toteme striped sweaters this season, along with both colourways for you to consider. Then, continue on to see other striped knitwear options that I love for 2024.
