Men’s Fair Isle Jumpers Under £100: The Whole Range, Compared
Key takeaways:
- The price fact first: all three Fair Isle jumpers in our range are £59 — the whole pattern family sits under £100, so the choice is about pattern and neckline, never budget.
- Pattern in three doses: a chest band (Highbury), all over (Bloomsbury), or the yoke only (Hampton).
- Two necklines: a quarter-zip for layering over shirts, or a crew neck for the simpler line.
- Sizes: S–XXL on the Highbury and Bloomsbury; S–XL on the Hampton.

What are the three jumpers, side by side?
| Jumper | Pattern | Neckline | Colourways | Sizes | Price |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Highbury | Nordic Fair Isle band across the chest, cable-knit body | Quarter-zip, stand collar | Ecru / Navy, Charcoal, Camel, Navy / Forest, Denim / Chocolate | S–XXL | £59.00 |
| Bloomsbury | Fair Isle bands carried all over the knit | Crew neck | Ecru Multi, Blue Multi, Rust Multi | S–XXL | £59.00 |
| Hampton | Pattern at the yoke only, plain body | Crew neck | Oat (single colourway) | S–XL | £59.00 |
How much pattern do you actually want to wear?
That is the whole decision. The Hampton keeps the pattern to the yoke on a plain oat body — the quietest reading, and the one that sits easiest under a coat. The Highbury puts a single band across the chest over a cable-knit body: present, but contained. The Bloomsbury carries the bands all over the knit and is the boldest of the three — the jumper as the outfit, worn with plain trousers and nothing competing. All three are regular fits with ribbed trims; none of them is a novelty Christmas jumper, a distinction our pattern guide explains properly.
Quarter-zip or crew neck?
The quarter-zip earns its place if you layer: the zip opens over a shirt collar, closes against the cold, and the stand collar frames both. It is also the only one of the three whose cloth is stated as 95% cotton, 5% elastane, with a gentle 30°C wash — the full choosing method, measurements included, is in our Fair Isle choosing guide. The crew necks are the simpler line under a coat and the easier gift, with no zip position to have an opinion about.
Which one is the gift?
The Hampton, for a man whose taste you are unsure of — one colourway, the quietest pattern, and a crew neck. The Highbury, for a man who will wear it weekly — five colourways means one of them is his. The Bloomsbury is the confident choice: buy it for someone whose wardrobe is plain enough to carry it, or for yourself. Sizing help is on the size guide, and returns run 30 days if the reading was wrong.
