How to wear knitted tops

Knit tops are easy to style and even easier to wear. Throw a half-zip over a sports bra before a session or after. Pair a crew neck or ribbed polo with leggings for an effortless everyday look. Style a knitted tank with pants for something a little more put-together. Simple combinations that always work.

Fabrics worth knowing

The fabrics across our knit top range are chosen for softness, breathability and easy wear. Cotton, Tencel fibres and wool blends make up the core of the collection, with select styles in recycled polyester. Lightweight enough for layering, and most are machine washable.

FAQ

What are knit tops?

Knit tops are lightweight tops made from knitted fabrics like cotton, wool blends or soft Tencel fibres. They're breathable, stretchy and easy to wear all day. At Nimble, our knit tops are designed to layer over activewear or style with everyday pieces. Think cool mornings, travel days and post-workout cover-ups.

Are knit tops good for summer?

Yes. Breathable fabrics and lightweight construction make knit tops a good summer layer. Tanks and tees for the warmer parts of the day, half-zips and crews for cool mornings or air-conditioned spaces, like offices or airplanes.

How do you style knit tops?

Knit tops pair well with leggings, pants or shorts. Layer a half-zip over a sports bra for an easy warm-up or cool-down look. Pair a crew or ribbed polo with high-waisted leggings for everyday wear. A longline cardigan over a tank is a travel-day go-to.

What’s the difference between a half-zip knit and a crew neck knit?

A half-zip gives you adjustable coverage, so you can zip up on cool mornings and open it up as you warm through. Good for active layering and warm-ups. A crew neck is a more relaxed everyday layer, easy to throw on with leggings or pants. Both are lightweight and simple to style.
