Fun and Funky Grandpa Sweaters You’re Sure to Love

Remember the Coastal Grandma aesthetic? Well, move over, Grandma, there’s a new game in town. Yes, it’s Grandpa’s turn to shine. The Grandpa sweater trend is real, and it’s happening. I blame Mr. Rogers. Just kidding, I’m happy with any fashion trend that features cozy clothes. If you’re not sure where to start, don’t worry. Today, I’m sharing some fun and funky Grandpa Sweaters you’re sure to love.

I bet you thought Grandpa Sweaters were all going to be dull and boring. Shame on you. Lol! Grandpa sweaters can be a shape, style, or print that you might see a grandpa wear. I love this bright colored cardigan sweater that is a relaxed style, exactly like what a grandpa would wear over his plaid shirt. He might not wear pink…but you never know. This sweater is also available in black and winter white.

I bought this boyfriend/grandpa sweater earlier this year, but it sold out before I could get it linked. I love this relaxed look, and you can wear it buttoned as a sweater or loose as a cardigan. This one is from Walmart, and I found several versions of it that I’ll list below.

Fun and Funky Grandpa Sweaters You’re Sure to Love – Oversized

The grandpa look is achieved by wearing a sweater that looks like you stole it from your grandpa. Wow, I really break these fashion trends down for you, don’t I? lol. Well, this is a sweater that I’d actually take from my grandpa’s closet and wear proudly. It would look great with leggings or jeans and booties. VERY comfy and cozy, which is the whole point.

The link description actually calls this sweater, “grunge”. Surely some of you remember the 90s? I told you it was making a comeback! This baggy sweater has a mock neck and elastic cuffs and it actually hits near the hips. It’s called baggy, but the reviewers say that it’s not oversized. There are several other options at the link including some cute checked patterns.

I told you that Walmart knows a thing or two about what grandpas wear. lol. This reminds me of a Fair Isle sweater which is a look that I always like. I love a sweater that’s machine-washable! This is a blend -50% Viscose, 28% Polyester, and 22% Nylon. It comes in several other options, including a slightly crazy purple rose version that I can’t imagine any grandpa wearing, lol.

Fun and Funky Grandpa Sweaters You’re Sure to Love – Cardigan

Now this is some stylish grandpa! I love the argyle pattern, and this black and green version is so chic. The reviews say that these run REALLY small, so you may want to go up one or even two sizes. It’s a cute sweater for around $25 dollars. You could dress this up or down!

This is one of my favorites in the Grandpa sweater category! I love the black and white stripes and the contrasting cuffs and placket. It’s boxy and will hit around the hip, so if you’re looking for a more fitted look around the midsection, this is probably not your sweater. It’s available in 7 other versions and around $50 dollars.

Old Navy comes through with a great version of the Grandpa sweater! I love this longer cardigan with the droopy front pockets. Can’t you just imagine gramps with one hand in the pocket and one hand on his pipe? I love the heather grey color, but it’s also available in off-white, black, and green. The description details say that it hits at the hip, but this is actually a little longer than that.

Is there anything more Grandpa than Houndstooth? I love this cardigan! It looks very vintage, but it’s still stylish. I guess that’s why Houndstooth is considered a classic. This cardigan is around $35 dollars but goes on sale all of the time. If you don’t love it, don’t worry. There are FORTY versions!

Fun and Funky Grandpa Sweaters You’re Sure to Love – Vests

Here’s another classic argyle version. If you can’t bring yourself to go full “Grandpa”, you’ll still be right on trend in this argyle vest. Where are my petite readers? This vest hits right at the top of the hip, so if you’re concerned that this trend might be too baggy for you, a vest could be a perfect way to make it work. Available in several other color combinations, it’s just $25 dollars.

Finally, a long, oversized sweater vest that’s more glamp than gramp. Ha! This would be so cute with leggings or jeans. It comes in just about any color you can imagine and is just $35 dollars. The photo shows the vest as quite baggy, but the reviews say it’s more fitted than it appears, so you’ll need to size up to get the oversized look.

Okay, gurls, what about it? Are you going to jump in on the grandpa sweater trend? You know I want to hear your thoughts on this!
