There’s nothing more traditional in cricket than pulling on a classic woollen vest or jumper before heading out on the field. At the start of the season, when those first few rounds can be icy cold, having a warm layer makes all the difference. That’s where our custom made wool cricket vests and jumpers come in. They’re not only practical, they also keep the heritage of the game alive with timeless designs and features that every cricket lover will appreciate.
Keeping the tradition alive
Cricket has always been a game that blends style, comfort and tradition. The old-school cable knit jumper is as much a part of cricket culture as baggy caps and willow bats. Our range stays true to that heritage. Made from high-quality wool, these garments have the traditional cable knit pattern, which has stood the test of time. It’s the look you’ll recognise from classic cricket photos – simple, elegant and full of character.
But while the design stays traditional, the custom options give you the chance to make it your own. Whether it’s adding coloured collars and cuffs to reflect your club’s colours, or having an embroidered logo stitched proudly on the chest, you can create a vest or jumper that’s as unique as your team.
White or off-white – the choice is yours
When it comes to cricket apparel, colour matters. Some teams like the bright, crisp look of pure white, while others prefer the more subtle, old-school charm of off-white. We’ve got you covered either way. Our custom made cricket jumpers and vests are available in classic white or off-white, so you can choose the style that matches your team’s kit.
Both colours work brilliantly with our YNH Baggy Caps too. Whether you’re going for the English style or the Australian style, the combination of a wool jumper with a baggy cap is about as traditional as it gets. Step onto the field in that kit and you’ll feel like you’re part of cricket’s long and proud history.
Practical for chilly early season matches
Ask anyone who’s played a few seasons of club cricket and they’ll tell you – the first few rounds can be cold, especially if you’re out in the field all day. The mornings are crisp, the breeze cuts through you, and once the sun dips behind the clouds you’ll be wishing you had another layer. That’s exactly when a woollen vest or jumper becomes your best mate.
Wool is naturally warm and breathable, so you’re not going to overheat once you get moving. A vest gives you that extra bit of warmth without restricting movement, while a full jumper is perfect for those really chilly starts or long afternoons in the outfield. By the time the summer heat kicks in, you can tuck it away – but early in the season, it’s a genuine lifesaver.
A perfect fit for juniors and seniors
It’s not just the seniors who deserve a bit of comfort and style. Our woollen cricket vests and jumpers are available in junior and senior sizes, so the whole club can look the part. There’s something special about seeing a young cricketer wearing a jumper with the same embroidered logo as the first-grade side. It helps build that sense of tradition and pride in the club.
For senior players, having quality gear matters even more. A custom jumper isn’t just another layer – it’s part of your identity as a team. It’s what you pull on in the sheds, what you wear during warm-ups, and what you throw on after a long stint in the field.
Built to last
We know club cricket gear cops a fair bit of wear and tear. That’s why our jumpers and vests are made to last. The wool blend is strong enough to handle a full season of training and matches, while still keeping that soft, comfortable feel. The embroidery won’t fade or peel, and the coloured trims keep their shape and vibrancy wash after wash.
Investing in a quality jumper or vest means you’re not just buying something for this season – you’re buying a piece of kit that can serve you for years to come.
Complete the look with YNH Baggy Caps
There’s no denying it – cricket just looks better when the team is kitted out properly. Our woollen vests and jumpers go hand-in-hand with our YNH Baggy Caps. Whether you prefer the English style with its deeper crown, or the Australian style that’s a little more casual, the combination of a cap and a jumper is as traditional as the game itself. Together, they make a statement about your club’s pride, culture and respect for the sport.
Final word
If you’re serious about cricket, a custom made wool vest or jumper is an essential part of your kit. Not only do they keep you warm during those cold early rounds, they also connect you to the rich tradition of the game. With features like cable knit design, coloured collars and cuffs, embroidered logos, and a choice of white or off-white, you can create a look that’s uniquely yours while keeping the classic cricket style alive.
Pair them with a YNH Baggy Cap, and you’ve got the perfect cricket outfit – one that honours the past while looking the part in the present. Juniors, seniors, players and supporters alike will love the feel and look of these timeless pieces.
So when the season rolls around and the weather turns brisk, make sure you’ve got a custom jumper or vest ready to go. Because nothing says cricket quite like wool, tradition, and a touch of personal pride.
