New Arrival
Thayer Top Shelf Houndstooth Knit Sport Coat
Our knit sport coats are what we like to call the natural evolution of menswear. Crafted with a knit fabric instead of a traditional weave, this style features our signature Johnnie-O fit—tailored but never tight. The fabric is incredibly soft, drapes just like a classic sport coat and is printed with a traditional houndstooth pattern inspired by vintage styles we referenced. And because we believe in doing things the best way possible, we’ve added refined details like classic pickstitching on the lapel—because it’s all about the little things that make a big difference.

The Difference
Our knit sport coats are an exercise in creating the most comfortable version of a classic staple. Unlike others, our fabric is truly next level, using the highest-quality processes and tech to ensure the appeal of a classic sport coat with unbelievable softness.
The Fabric
These sport coats are knit with a Panama weave—a kind of basketweave—this is not only breathable, it resists wrinkles and is unbelievably soft. And to ensure the look of classic tailored suiting, we use state-of-the-art printing to recreate timeless patterns.
Styling Note
While the idea of a knit sport coat may be new, the styling is just like your wovens. Paired with a chino or your favorite 5-pocket pants and a polo, button-up or t-shirt if you’re going true SoCal, there’s no more comfortable way to look this good.
