Quarter Zip Sweatshirt

The Sweatshirt That Takes Meetings
Pull-over sweatshirts have one setting: on. The Quarter Zip Sweatshirt has infinite adjustments—zipped to the chin when the AC attacks, open at the collar when the room warms up, somewhere in between for everything else. Same comfort. Complete control.
This is the sweatshirt that stopped asking permission to show up places.

The Design Philosophy

VAINO’s SS25 collection recognized a wardrobe gap hiding in plain sight. The crew neck sweatshirt belongs to weekends. The full-zip hoodie belongs to transit. But that middle ground—the piece that layers under blazers, pairs with trousers, travels from laptop work to dinner reservations—remained underserved.
The Quarter Zip Sweatshirt fills that space with intention. The stand collar adds structure that crew necks lack. The zip provides ventilation that pullovers can’t offer. The silhouette stays clean enough for contexts where traditional sweats would feel like surrender. It’s the sweatshirt rebuilt for people whose days don’t fit into single categories.

Fabric & Feel

Premium Cotton Fleece
The exterior presents smooth and refined—no telltale sweatshirt texture announcing casual from across the room. The interior delivers the comfort promise: brushed fleece that feels broken-in from the first wear, insulating without the weight that turns layers into burden.
The balance matters. Heavy enough to serve as a standalone piece when temperatures cooperate, light enough to disappear beneath jackets when they don’t. The fabric moves through climate-controlled offices, outdoor cafes, and temperature swings between subway platforms and street level without demanding adjustment or attention. This is fleece engineered for days that refuse to stay consistent.

Construction Details

Quarter Zip — Metal hardware that glides smoothly, positioned to ventilate at will or close fully against drafts, never snagging or sticking
Stand Collar — Rises to frame the neck when zipped, lies flat and clean when open, adds the structure that elevates sweatshirt to sweater territory
Rib Cuffs and Hem — Snug finishing that holds position through movement, preventing sleeve creep and waist billow
Reinforced Seams — Stress points double-stitched for the longevity that daily rotation demands
Branded Labels — Interior VAINO identification, exterior reserved for the clean lines and your layering decisions

The Colorway

Built for the wardrobe that works: Black as the anchor—pairs with everything, questions nothing. Navy for depth that reads professional without trying. Greige and Ecru bring warmth when the neutral rotation needs dimension. White for those who embrace maintenance as investment. Blue and Brown complete the spectrum for mood and season variation.
One for every day or one for every context. Build according to your needs.

Sizing & Fit

Regular Fit — Engineered for the quarter zip’s natural role: standalone piece or team player. Shoulders sit clean for wearing solo, chest allows shirts beneath without strain, length hits at the hip for versatility with high or low waistlines. The stand collar accommodates layered collars beneath without bunching.
True to size for most purposes. Size up only if planning heavy layers underneath; the fit accommodates light shirts and tees without adjustment.
Available: S / M / L / XL / XXL / XXXL / 4XL

How to Wear It

The Quarter Zip Sweatshirt earns its place across the entire week:
Zipped fully with tailored chinos and leather sneakers for offices where the dress code died but standards didn’t. Open at the collar over a button-down with dark denim for the smart-casual hybrid that actually works. Beneath a structured coat as the mid-layer that adds warmth without adding bulk. Solo with joggers for the morning coffee run that might turn into afternoon errands that might turn into evening plans.
It’s the sweatshirt that proved the zip changes everything.

Care

Machine wash cold, zip closed to protect the hardware and prevent snags against other garments. Inside out preserves the smooth exterior. Tumble dry low or hang dry—the fleece responds well to either. The fabric naturally resists wrinkles; most creases fall out within hours of hanging. Maintenance-friendly by design.
