Quarter-Zips for Winter

Old Navy Bounce Fleece Half-Zip Pullover Sweatshirt

This pullover may be a sweatshirt, but it looks nice enough to dress up with trousers or jeans and heeled boots. You could even throw it over a maxi dress and knee-high boots. It has a loose fit with dropped shoulders for comfort, and it hits right at the waist. One reviewer called the fabric “magically soft.” 

Quince Mongolian Cashmere Fisherman Quarter-Zip Sweater

Thanks to the 100 percent Mongolian cashmere material, this quarter-zip sweater couldn’t be cozier. The ribbed pullover comes in eight colors, including ivory, teak, black, heather gray, dark blue, beige, brown, and burgundy. “The cashmere feels incredibly luxurious, and the quality is truly amazing,” said one shopper. “It’s soft, cozy, and looks stunning on.”

Abercrombie & Fitch Long-Sleeve Zip-Up Fleece Mini Dress

Switch things up with this quarter-zip sweatshirt dress. It has a roomy fit and comes in regular, petite, and tall lengths to accommodate different heights. Pair the dress with tights and tall boots or loafers for a casual look when heading to brunch or to go shopping with friends.

J.Crew Warm-Up Fleece Pullover

This cute fleece pullover is technically a quarter-button-down, but it has the same look as a typical quarter-zip. It features contrast piping on the collar, cuffs, and pockets for an added pop of color and is available in four shades: burgundy, cream, charcoal, and navy. The polyester-wool blend fabric is extra “plush,” according to one customer. Another person commented, “[It] looks polished and better than a traditional sweatshirt. [It] works well with jeans, leggings, or sweatpants.”
