Throwing Fits and Checks Downtown Have Your Fall Knitwear Sorted
The only mohair cardigan that matters.






Lawrence Schlossman and James Harris are no strangers to fashion. Not only are they the voices of the popular menswear-focused podcast Throwing Fits, late last year the pair released a pair of loafers alongside Blackstock & Weber and more recently crafted a pleasing collection of five-inch inseam shorts.
This season things are moving upstairs as the Throwing Fits pair join forces with New Zealand-based label Checks Downtown for a multi-colored mohair cardigan, just in time for fall.
Checks Downtown — which describes itself as “sitting between street fashion, luxurious fabrication and tailored design” — is based in the heart of Auckland and is known for its playful and eclectic approach to menswear.
In partnership with Throwing Fits, the pair now introduce its “berries and cream”-inspired mohair and wool cardigan, which houses lower-front hand pockets and faux pearl buttons, and is dressed in a series of vertically-arranged autumnal stripes.
Available to pre-order until October 3 via the Checks Downtown webstore, the Throwing Fits x Checks Downtown cardigan retails at $209 USD.
