John Smedley has been designing, creating and manufacturing the world’s finest knitwear at its factory in Lea Mills, Derbyshire, since 1784. Over a period of 240 years, many of our designs have remained relatively unchanged save a few careful refinements. Here, you'll find a hand-picked edit of our most popular men's knitwear. Ranging from our iconic Bobby jumper to our classic Adrian polo shirt; if you only purchase one piece of knitwear per season, make it one of these.

The garments on this page are customer favourites, purchased time after time. They all boast timeless silhouettes and colour palettes which transcend seasons and trends effortlessly. Whether you’re using them to build a capsule wardrobe, or simply to add more versatile pieces to your existing repertoire, our bestsellers are long-lasting, stylish investments in your personal style. From jackets and jumpers to cardigans and polo shirts, there is something for everyone and for every occasion.
