Marks and Spencer's Air-Yarn Crew Neck Jumper, priced at £18, has become the retailer's best-selling item across its entire knitwear range. The autumn staple is available in nine colours, with dark aubergine and bitter chocolate emerging as customer favourites.
Shoppers praise comfort and value
The retailer describes the jumper as "exceptionally soft and lightweight, yet warm too," featuring a regular fit, classic crew neck, and ribbed cuffs and hem. One buyer commented: "Lovely and soft, perfect fit, bought in various colours. I am petite, but size 12 and small is perfect. Love the gorgeous range of different colours."
Another shopper remarked: "This air yarn crew neck looks and feels like a luxurious soft woollen jumper. It's incredibly cosy, comfortable to wear, great value, and washes well. I have since gone back to buy another colour too. Perfect to take me through autumn and winter."
Mixed feedback on fit
While many reviewers praised the jumper's style and washability, some raised concerns about the neckline. One reviewer noted: "This jumper is a good basic jumper for autumn and into the cooler months. Fits and drapes well, the fabric is supersoft. I find the neckline a bit too tight/high in these jumpers."

Next offers a Long Sleeve Crew Neck Cosy Knit Jumper at £26, available in chocolate brown plus five additional colours: grey, grey/green, wine/pink, red, and blue.
