Product Overview
The Brook Taverner Copenhagen 1/4 Zip Jumper is a sophisticated staple designed for the modern professional. Combining the natural warmth and softness of merino wool with the durability and breathability of cotton, this garment provides a refined alternative to standard office wear. Whether you are leading a boardroom meeting or representing your company at a trade event, this jumper offers a polished silhouette that remains comfortable throughout the working day.
Designed with practicality in mind, the 1/4 zip fastening allows for effortless layering and easy temperature control. The subtle design details, such as the double contrast inner neck, elevate the jumper beyond basic knitwear, providing a premium finish that reflects the quality of your business.
Key Features
- 1/4 Zip Fastening: Offers versatility in styling and allows the wearer to adjust for comfort in changing environments.
- Ribbed Neck, Cuffs, and Hem: These reinforced elements ensure the jumper maintains its shape and fit, preventing the garment from stretching or sagging after repeated wear.
- Double Contrast Inner Neck Design: A discreet yet distinctive detail that adds a professional, high-end aesthetic to your corporate uniform.
- Machine Washable: Engineered for easy maintenance, allowing the luxury of wool-blend knitwear to be integrated into a daily work routine without the need for specialist dry cleaning.
Design & Performance
The performance of the Copenhagen jumper is rooted in its 50% Merino Wool and 50% Cotton composition. This medium-weight fabric blend provides excellent thermal regulation—merino wool naturally traps heat when it is cold and releases moisture when it is warm—while the cotton ensures the garment remains breathable and soft against the skin.
The knit is fine enough to fit comfortably under a suit jacket or blazer but substantial enough to be worn as a standalone outer layer. The ribbed cuffs and hem are specifically engineered to provide a secure fit, ensuring that the sleeves stay in place and the jumper sits correctly at the waist for a tidy, professional appearance.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This jumper is an ideal canvas for customisation, particularly for businesses looking to enhance their brand identity. For a truly professional appearance, we recommend embroidery. A well-executed embroidered logo on the chest or sleeve provides a durable, high-quality finish that complements the premium texture of the knitwear.
While print is also an option for larger, bold designs, embroidery is the traditional choice for this style of garment. Our in-house team at MyWorkwear, based in Telford, has been perfecting these techniques since 1976. We handle every aspect of the customisation process to ensure your branding is applied with technical precision, maintaining the integrity of the fabric while ensuring your team looks unified.
Use Cases
The Copenhagen jumper is perfectly suited for corporate environments, client-facing roles, and sales teams. It provides a smart-casual alternative to a full suit, making it an excellent choice for managers and staff who need to transition between the office and site visits while maintaining a professional image.

Practical Advice
To achieve the most professional look, we suggest pairing this jumper with a collared shirt. Due to the fine-knit nature of the fabric, ensure you choose a size that allows for a shirt to be worn underneath without causing unnecessary tension on the seams or zip.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the appearance and performance of a merino wool blend requires correct care. Because this jumper is machine washable, it is designed for convenience, but following the correct procedures will ensure it remains in top condition for years.
We recommend using a gentle wash cycle at 40°C with a detergent specifically formulated for wool. This prevents the natural fibres from becoming damaged or brittle. Avoid using bleach, as it will break down the wool fibres and lead to thinning of the fabric.
Never tumble dry this garment; high heat can cause wool to shrink significantly and lose its soft texture. Instead, reshape the jumper while damp and dry it flat to ensure the ribbed cuffs and hem retain their original elasticity and fit.
