Are they in style? If so, what does one wear under one? Does it have to be a collard shirt & tie?

Collared sport shirt without tie, or collared dress shirt with tie. I've seen people wear t-shirts under them as well, often t-shirts with horizontal stripes.

I wear them a lot in the winter and in the climate controlled lab I work in. You can wear a shirt and tie or no tie and you can just wear a t-shirt. There is no set rule for them. You can decide how you like them best.

I don't know if they are in style. Don't really care. But for me, when going casual / sport is my to-go default look. I normally wear them as suggested above by Boswell: dress shirt + tie.

They're in. Casual, while retaining a dressy vibe at the same time (Think Mr. Rogers. Bad ass, right?). Wear with t shirt, or collared shirts.

Wear under a sport jacket or your winter jacket for an extra layer when it's cold.

I had a red/gray/white striped mohair like this (except it was a zip front) in school back in the '60's. Wish I had another one.
