Robie Sweater is a modern twist on the turtleneck pullover Cary Grant wears in the opening scenes of “To Catch A Thief”.

I loved how comfortable Cary Grant looked in his pullover. Despite the fact that he is running away from the police, leaping over market stalls and riding the waves of a speed boat, he looks at ease and relaxed.

May the modern man in your life find this top down zippered cardigan just as easy and effortless to wear.
