Roberto Collina

Soft merino wool and cashmere, on-trend design and sustainable, regional production: Roberto Collina jumpers for men are the epitome of unmistakable and timeless Italian style. Classic jumpers and cardigans for men, such as turtlenecks or stylish knitted polo shirts, are made using the latest knitting techniques and the designs are interpreted in a contemporary way. The brand was founded over 60 years ago as a small knitwear shop for men by Roberto Collina in a small town north of Bologna. The label for high-quality knitwear – elegant and timeless – is still based here in Crevalcore today. With knitting machines that were ahead of their time, the entrepreneur built up a national reputation long before his son Roberto Collina presented a small capsule collection at the Pitti Uomo fashion fair in Italy in the 1980s. He won over the international fashion world with 33 men's jumpers and from then on expanded sales worldwide – as far as the USA and Japan. The Roberto Collina polo for men and all of the company's other knitwear creations are also extremely popular outside of Italy.

What Characterises Roberto Collina Jumpers for Men?

Roberto Collina's knitwear collections are characterised by skilled craftsmanship and several decades of experience. The extremely light and airy fine knitwear designs made of cotton with a proportion of linen or refined with high-quality microfibre to prevent pilling are particularly outstanding. The silhouette of the jumpers is always slim-fitting – in keeping with Italian fashion. The traditional company from northern Italy also uses elaborate processes to give its knitwear depth and contemporary relevance. The classic Roberto Collina polo shirt for men is always made from fine knit fabrics and features the typical three-button placket and a tailored polo collar. Reversible jumpers are inlaid, the expressive choice of colours is based on the trends of the season and the brand creates an unmistakable washed-out look by bleaching some of its designs. Roberto Collina proves from season to season what is possible with knitwear and how modern it can be interpreted with men's jumpers. In addition to these extremely experimental knitwear creations, the brand also offers classics such as designer knit polos for men and round-neck jumpers in timeless colours such as beige, dark blue, grey, brown and olive, which are a firm fixture in any wardrobe. Even with these less expressive designs, the details speak for Roberto Collina's love of experimentation for men. The finest piqué and bouclé textures create exciting accents, as does the use of genuine mother-of-pearl buttons on the button plackets of the knitted short-sleeved polo shirts.

An Investment in the Future

Roberto Collina is just as proud of his label's "Made in Italy" heritage as he is of his young team. In order to maintain the high quality standards in the future, the Collina family trains promising talents themselves: Here they learn about the entire production process for knitted jumpers and cardigans, from yarn to delivery. In a unique collaboration with the Accademia Costume & Moda in Rome, the "Creative Knitwear Design" master's course ensures the continuation of the knitwear expertise. The finest natural raw materials such as merino, cashmere, silk, linen and cotton are processed by Roberto Collina for men from season to season using traditional manufacturing techniques in accordance with current standards and the latest understanding of fashion. The brand's team is constantly developing new ideas and designs to make the full variety of fine knitwear tangible. The Roberto Collina knitted polo for men, for example, offers sporty comfort with a perfect finish. The company's view of the future is holistic: Roberto Collina pursues a zero-waste philosophy by recycling and minimising emissions.
