The Timeless Elegance of the Old Money Cricket Jumper
Why This Iconic Piece Deserves a Place in Every Wardrobe
There are certain garments that transcend trends—pieces that aren’t just clothes but quiet declarations of personal style, good taste, and heritage. The cricket jumper is one such item. Born on the green fields of English sport, this iconic knit has made its way into the realm of timeless fashion. And few brands honour that legacy better than Bown of London.
At a time when fast fashion dominates and trends change by the week, the Bown of London cricket jumper offers a reassuring reminder: true style never goes out of fashion.
A Piece With History
The origins of the cricket jumper can be traced back to the early 20th century. Initially designed for cricketers to stay warm during long matches, the jumper quickly gained popularity beyond the sporting world. With its traditional cable knit, crisp white colour, and signature coloured trim at the neckline and cuffs, it symbolised both refinement and relaxed sophistication.
For our friends across the Atlantic who might not be familiar with cricket, it’s a historic English sport somewhat comparable to baseball. You can read more about it here. And while the sport may be unfamiliar, the look it inspired has become universally recognised and appreciated.
The jumper’s aesthetics—clean lines, heritage detailing, and soft textures—evoke memories of old-school clubhouses, ivy-covered campuses, and countryside weekends. It’s a style often associated with what people now call “Old Money” dressing: effortless, elegant, and discreetly luxurious.
Crafted for Comfort and Longevity
What sets the Bown of London cricket jumper apart is its craftsmanship. Made from soft, breathable cotton, it offers the perfect balance of warmth and comfort. The fabric is light enough for spring days yet substantial enough for layering in colder months.
With its classic V-neckline, the jumper works beautifully over a collared shirt, making it a staple for both men and women. Pair it with tailored trousers for a polished look or dress it down with jeans for effortless weekend style. It’s that rare kind of garment that transitions seamlessly from garden parties to city streets.
And unlike many modern knits, this jumper is built to last. Bown of London recommends gentle washing and air drying to preserve the fabric’s quality. With proper care, it’s a piece that can remain in your wardrobe for years—perhaps even decades.
The Appeal of Timeless Style
In an age of ever-changing fashion fads, the cricket jumper represents something rare: timeless elegance. It’s not showy or flashy. It doesn’t scream for attention. Instead, it whispers sophistication. That’s why it’s so beloved by those who value classic style—the kind that feels just as relevant today as it did 50 years ago.
From country house weekends to city strolls, the cricket jumper fits every setting. Its simplicity is its strength. And as part of Bown of London’s broader knitwear collection, it showcases the brand’s commitment to quality, detail, and heritage design.
More Than Just a Jumper
What makes the cricket jumper truly special isn’t just the way it looks or feels—it’s the lifestyle it represents. Wearing one evokes a sense of leisure and ease: afternoons spent reading by the fire, countryside walks, or brunch with friends. It speaks of tradition, taste, and an appreciation for the finer things in life—without ever being pretentious.
As part of their heritage collection, Bown of London’s version pays homage to this tradition while adding modern comfort and refinement. Their cricket jumper is more than just a garment—it’s an expression of values: authenticity, craftsmanship, and understated confidence.
And if you’ve ever wanted to invest in a piece that truly stands the test of time, this is it.
