WHAT'S NEW
Armen Round-Neck Sweater

Made in France
Geelong lamb's wool
Thick jumper
Seamless knitting
The Armen sweater stands out for its exceptionally soft, lightweight, and voluminous knit. To create this design, we selected Geelongora yarn, made from 75% Super Geelong lambswool and 25% angora, which feels exceptionally soft and allows the sweater to be worn directly against the skin. Knitted in one seamless piece on a circular knitting machine, it features a rounded silhouette with no visible seams between the shoulders, sleeves, back, and front. Only the collar is precisely sewn on by hand in our workshop. Numerous rounds of knitting, washing, and fulling were necessary to achieve this balance of softness, volume, shape retention, and durability.

Armen V-Neck Jumper - Charcoal

WHAT'S NEW
Armen V-neck Sweater

Made in France
Geelong lamb's wool
Thick jumper
Seamless knitting
The Armen V-neck sweater stands out for its generous, deep V-neck, which gives the piece an elegant and bold silhouette. We envisioned it worn over a white V-neck T-shirt—or one in a lighter shade than the sweater itself—to highlight the neckline. Knitted from a yarn composed of 75% Super Geelong lambswool and 25% angora, it offers a lightweight, warm, and exceptionally soft knit. Entirely seamless and knitted on a circular machine, the sweater is knitted in one piece; only the V-neck is precisely added during assembly in our workshop. Numerous rounds of knitting, washing, and fulling were required to achieve the desired balance between softness, volume, shape retention, and durability.

Armen Polo - Pink Plum

WHAT'S NEW
Armen Polo Shirt

Made in France
Geelong lamb's wool
Thick polo shirt
The Armen polo shirt combines the softness and volume of Geelongora yarn with exceptionally meticulous construction. Knitted seamlessly on a circular knitting machine, it features raglan sleeves that give it a natural drape and make it very comfortable to wear. Its fully re-knitted polo collar requires extensive casting-on work to achieve a clean, durable finish. Composed of 75% Super Geelong lambswool and 25% angora, the yarn creates a lightweight, warm, and exceptionally soft knit that can be worn directly against the skin. Two corozo buttons, made and dyed in France in the Baie de Somme region, complete the design.

Armen Cardigan - Green Chive

WHAT'S NEW
Armen Cardigan

Made in France
Geelong lamb's wool
Thick cardigan
The Armen cardigan stands out for its loose, relaxed fit, but above all for the unique construction of its front panel, which is entirely machine-knitted. Typically used to work with multiple colors in a single row, the intarsia technique allows us here to create a denser, more durable knit directly to accommodate the buttonholes and buttons, with no seam between the front panels and the button placket. This process requires more time to knit but results in exceptionally neat finishes. Knitted from a yarn composed of 75% Super Geelong lambswool and 25% angora, the cardigan features a lightweight, voluminous, and exceptionally soft knit. Only its three corozo buttons—made and dyed in France in the Baie de Somme region—are added during assembly.

Youri round neck sweater - Green forest

OUR ICONIC
THE YOURI JUMPER

Made in France
Thick jumper
Merino wool
The Youri crew-neck jumper is the first design in the Nitto collection. It is a ‘classic’ in its shape and appearance, yet its details reveal the full expertise of four specialists, each a master in their field: the meticulous selection of the yarn, the choice of knit, the technical adjustments to the knitting process, the precise finishing, and the seams that hold it together – both delicate and sturdy. You’ll notice its quality the first time you wear it, but it will continue to surprise you for years to come.

Nitto Knitwear
Men's knitwear made in France

Nitto Knitwear is a boutique brand based in Clamart, just outside Paris. Since 1972, we have been crafting contemporary men’s knitwear there: men’s knit sweaters, men’s crew-neck sweaters, men’s long-sleeve polo shirts, cardigans, and accessories—all knitted in France and designed to last without ever becoming outdated. The collection consists of high-quality pieces crafted with great attention to detail, expertise, and, above all, plenty of time. All of this is aimed at creating a casual-chic wardrobe that’s easy to wear with plenty of elegance. A fine-knit men’s crew-neck sweater that can be layered year-round, a long-sleeve men’s polo shirt with a knitted collar for a smart-casual look, contemporary silhouettes, and seasonal colors—all blending casual style, high manufacturing standards, and French craftsmanship.

A French knit
From Yarn to Finished Garment

What sets Nitto Knitwear’s knitwear apart is the choice of yarn, the knitting stitch, the knit density, the fit, and the precision of the finishes. Merino wool provides warmth to the men’s winter knit sweater; cotton adds lightness and breathability to the men’s crew-neck sweater and the men’s long-sleeve mid-season polo shirt. Every men’s crew-neck sweater and every men’s long-sleeve polo shirt made in France is crafted with the workshop’s commitment to producing high-quality, sturdy, and durable products. Comfortable, long-lasting, and stylish garments, knitted in the same workshop, designed to withstand the seasons and stand the test of time.

What defines the Nitto Knitwear brand identity?

Nitto Knitwear offers understated, graphic, and modern men's knitwear. The pieces blend French craftsmanship, casual style, and contemporary silhouettes: sweaters, polo shirts, and cardigans that are easy to wear but make a real visual statement.

How can you wear Nitto Knitwear on a daily basis?

Nitto Knitwear pieces are designed to be easy to wear: a crew-neck sweater with jeans, a knit polo under a light jacket, or an open cardigan over a T-shirt or shirt. The idea: a simple, graphic, and contemporary look—effortlessly stylish.

How can you tell if a knit is high-quality?

High-quality knitwear is recognized by its structure, feel, density, and ability to retain its shape with repeated wear. At Nitto Knitwear, every piece is carefully designed—from the yarn and knit stitch to the finishing touches—to offer comfortable, durable, and well-crafted sweaters, polo shirts, and cardigans.
