Men's 1/4 Zip Pullovers

Lands' End Quarter-Zip Sweatshirts: Layers That Find the Right Temperature

The right layer doesn’t ask for attention; it simply works. A quarter-zip sweatshirt feels at home wherever the day takes you, from a brisk walk to a long meeting. With its easy neckline and balanced warmth, a men’s 1/4-zip pullover is that in-between essential that always feels right. 

Designed for layering, its clean silhouette slips easily over an Oxford or under a jacket, bridging everyday comfort and quiet polish. You’ll even find how naturally it pairs with your favorite men’s dress shirts, making it an easy choice when your day moves between desk and weekend. 

The Difference Is in the Fabric

Every Lands' End men’s quarter-zip sweatshirt begins with texture. Some are crafted in smooth French rib for light structure, others in soft fleece or piqué knit that settles comfortably against the skin. No matter which you prefer, our men's lightweight pullovers carry a sense of warmth without the weight and offer easy movement for brisk mornings and cool nights alike. Lands’ End fabrics are chosen for their ability to breathe, stretch and return to form. It's comfort that stays consistent, wash after wash.


Thoughtfully Designed, Effortlessly Worn

A men’s 1/4-zip lightweight pullover from Lands’ End feels simple at first glance, but every detail has intention. Flat seams prevent twisting. The zipper moves smoothly and stops just short of the collar’s edge for a clean finish. The fit stays close enough to layer, yet never restrictive. 

These small refinements turn a standard men's 1/4-zip fleece pullover into a reliable part of your everyday rhythm. It’s the same attention to detail you’ll find across our men’s knit shirts; comfort that holds its shape.

From Workday to Weekend

The beauty of a men's fleece quarter-zip is how naturally it fits the flow of real life. Worn over a tee for a quick morning walk, or over one of our men’s casual shirts for the afternoon commute, it’s a single piece that adapts as easily as you do. Every fabric choice, from soft fleece to smooth cotton blends, supports that balance of ease and refinement.

The Softest Touch of Everyday Luxury

Even in its simplest form, a Lands’ End pullover carries refinement. Each men’s lightweight pullover draws from the same philosophy that defines our men’s Supima cotton tops & tees: softness that lasts, fabric that holds its color and a finish that feels luxurious but familiar. Whether it’s fleece brushed or a rib knit that flexes gently with movement, every piece reminds you that comfort can still feel special. 


Frequently Asked Questions About Men's Quarter-Zip Sweatshirts

What’s the difference between a quarter-zip and a full-zip?

A quarter-zip sweatshirt opens about a quarter of the way down the chest for subtle ventilation and layering ease. It keeps the neckline neater than a full-zip while still giving you room to adjust temperature and style. 

Are Lands’ End pullovers good for layering over dress shirts?

Absolutely. Our quarter-zips are cut with just enough room to fit smoothly over a Men’s Dress Shirt without bunching at the shoulder or cuff. 

What kind of zippers do you use?

Our men’s 1/4-zip pullover features durable, smooth-glide hardware chosen to resist snagging or rusting. The zipper stops short of the collar edge for comfort against the neck.
