Jack and Jones and what the brand covers with us

Short answer: Jack and Jones is a Danish menswear brand with a broad range. With us, it is the basics and underwear in bamboo viscose that matter rather than the wide fashion range.

Danish menswear brand

The brand is part of a Danish group and is known from shops across Europe. The main range is fashion, but there is also a basics line with underwear and T shirts. That is the part that interests us, because this is where the fabric matters most for how the clothes feel every day. See Jack and Jones.

Basics and underwear

In our range the focus is on the simple basics rather than the broad fashion range. These are the pieces where the fabric shapes how the day feels. Underwear sits close to the skin for many hours, and a soft fabric that moves moisture away makes a difference. See bamboo underwear for men.

Cut and fit

The fit sits at the regular to slightly slim end. That suits those who like clothes to sit close without pulling. If you are used to a looser fit from other brands, it may be worth going up a size, especially for T shirts worn on their own.

T shirts

The T shirts in the basics line are plain and can be worn alone or as a layer under a shirt or jumper. The slightly slim fit means they do not bunch under other clothes. Choose a size where the shoulder seam sits on the shoulder and the sleeve does not tighten around the arm. See bamboo T shirts for men.

Colours

The basics come in neutral colours that can be worn under anything. Black, white and grey are the colours most people return to, because they go with the rest of the wardrobe. A drawer in plain colours is also easier to top up when single pieces need replacing after long use.

The equivalent for women

Jack and Jones is a menswear brand, so the women's range sits with other brands. If you are looking for basics in the same fabric and the same simple style for women, there is an equivalent selection in bamboo viscose. See bamboo underwear for women for the equivalent in the women's range.

Choosing your size

Compare with a garment you already like and measure it flat on a table. That gives a better picture than assuming the size you usually buy. For underwear, the waistband decides whether it fits well, so it should sit firmly without digging in.

Washing and care

Items in bamboo viscose are washed at 40 degrees without fabric softener. Softener leaves a film on the fibres and makes the fabric less soft over time. Dry on low heat or on a line so the clothes keep their shape, and turn T shirts inside out before washing. See washing and care.

When the brand suits you

Jack and Jones suits you if you know the brand from the shops and want the simple basics in a soft fabric. It is everyday clothing you do not need to think about, and it can be bought again in the same colour and size when the old pieces are worn out after many washes.
