Every year at this time, we find ourselves craving new sweaters — you just can't beat that thrill of finding a new knit or sweatsuit set [1] to cozy up in all season long. And while we're firm believers that you can never have too many sweaters in your wardrobe (especially if you live somewhere cold), dishing out the money to spend on a variety of styles is often a burden on our wallets.
Fortunately, there are plenty of stylish sweaters out there that are equal parts cozy and affordable, and we've recently discovered a few of our favorites on Amazon [2]. It's no secret that the retailer is a hub for deals across pretty much every major category. But when it comes to fashion, the retailer delivers in more ways than one with a massive selection of knits and other top-rated clothing [3], all at unbelievably low prices — we're talking so affordable, you won't have to spend a penny over $25.
Whether you want an elevated yet comfortable sweatshirt [4] or a fitted turtleneck for layering, we've got options that'll impress you. Take a look at our favorite Amazon sweaters under $25, and score a few before they sell out.
Best Sweatshirt
Hanes Crewneck EcoSmart Fleece Pullover [5] ($11, originally $21)
There's a reason this pullover has tens of thousands of five-star ratings: it's comfy, endlessly versatile, and the kind of sweatshirt you'll reach for all year long.
Best V-Neck Sweater
Amazon Essentials Classic-Fit Lightweight Long-Sleeve V-Neck Sweater [6] ($11)
This V-neck sweater has a close but comfortable fit that's not too tight or loose. It's the definition of versatile, perfect for both work and play and a great layering staple. Not to mention, it has over 17,000 five-star ratings.
Best Henley-Style Sweater
Pullover V-Neck Sweater [7] ($12)
This ribbed sweater is super-soft with a slightly longer fit, so it's incredibly comfortable. The V-neck and Henley-style buttons at the top add a bit of extra flair. The hardest part is deciding on a color. The options are so good, it's almost impossible to choose just one.
Best Turtleneck
Amazon Essentials Classic-Fit Turtleneck Sweater [8] ($13)
If you prefer a little more coverage, consider this Amazon Essentials turtleneck featuring rib-knit details. It comes in a range of colors and patterns, from classic black to hot pink.
Best Lightweight Sweater
Amazon Essentials Crewneck Sweater [9] ($13, originally $16)
If you're looking for a lightweight sweater that's a step up from a long-sleeved shirt in terms of thickness, you've met your perfect match with this style. Shoppers deem it a staple part of their capsule wardrobe [10], describing it as "good quality" and "the perfect casual sweater."
Best Scalloped Edge Sweater
Grecerelle V-Neck Cardigan [11] ($15, originally $33)
The scalloped trim on this cardigan looks incredible layered on top of a T-shirt or tank top in a contrasting color. You can throw it over a dress or pair it with jeans to instantly elevate your look. It comes in 47 (!) different colors — including patterns — so you have plenty of options.
Best Puff-Sleeve Sweater
ATHMILE Puff Short Sleeve Sweater [12] ($15)
This puff-sleeve sweater is the perfect combination of feminine and classic, and according to reviewers, it's a compliment magnet. Take a styling cue from the model and layer it with mixed-length necklaces for an extra-chic look.
Best Cardigan
Amazon Essentials V-Neck Cardigan Sweater [13] ($16)
Made of a lightweight and stretchy cotton-modal blend, multiple shoppers note that this cardigan looks more expensive than it is. "It feels very soft and silky," wrote one Amazon user who gave it a five-star rating.
Best Open-Front Cardigan
Amazon Essentials Open-Front Cardigan Sweater [14] ($17)
You won't regret owning this open-front cardigan sweater. Whether you bring it to work to ward off the chill of office air conditioning or as the perfect final touch to your ensemble, you'll find countless ways to incorporate it into your wardrobe.
Best Quarter-Zip Sweater
Prettywear Quarter Zip Pullover Sweater [15] ($20)
For a fitted sweater you can easily tuck into high-waisted jeans and layer under jackets, we're loving this quarter-zip option. It's slightly stretchy and ribbed, so it hugs curves and you can adjust the zipper as high or low as you want.
Best Striped Sweater
ZESICA Striped Crewneck Sweater [16] ($20, originally $35)
This oversized striped sweater is equal parts cozy and cool. The ribbed texture and classic crewneck give it an easy, throw-on-and-go feel, making it perfect for lounging at home or heading out when you want a casual look that still feels pulled together.
Best Cable-Knit Sweater
ANRABESS Cable Knit Sweater [17] ($20, originally $40)
A classic cable-knit sweater transcends the test of time, and this one from Amazon is no exception. You can lean into its preppy side with pearls or give it an edge with modern accessories. For those who prefer something more traditional, the Amazon Basics Fisherman Cable Sweater [18] ($17) is equally covetable.
Best Crewneck Sweater
Arach&Cloz Wool-Blend Sweater [19] ($23, originally $29)
One shopper dubbed this sweater "top tier for Amazon clothing," and hundreds of others echo the sentiment. Reviewers can't get enough of its lightweight yet soft feel and the luxe-for-less price point. Another fan went so far as to say that if they could, they'd "buy all the colors." Worth noting: It also comes in a short sleeve version [20] ($24, originally $28) that's perfect for the tricky summer-to-fall wardrobe transition.
