Description

A sweater vest is a knitted type of vest similar to a sweater. Unlike a sweater, however, it is sleeveless and usually has a low cut neckline. Common patterns seen on sweater vests include ones such as argyle and plaid. Sweater vests are popular among certain types of sports players as well as their fans, being the standard clothing on professional cricket players and often seen on golfers and coaches.

Not to be confused with...

  • cardigan — some styles of cardigan are sleeveless like a sweater vest, but will feature a button-up front unlike sweater vests
  • sweater — a sweater has sleeves
  • tank top — a tank top is made of thinner materials than a sweater vest
