Details

We think this might be the most comfortable sweater you own. The wool used in its construction is carefully selected for diameter—it’s Super 160s wool, meaning it has a maximum diameter of just 15.75 microns. This fine of wool has a texture which rivals cashmere (and in our opinion, will actually blow away a lot of mass market cashmeres).

The result is a sweater you can actually wear directly next to your skin. Rather than itching, the plush texture will help keep you cozy in the colder months, and the high not-quite-mock neck helps keep the wind out. The chunky texture will help add some beautiful texture to any outfit you wear it in. The weave is simple enough to be a low-key role player, but still offers a bit of visual interest to draw the eye if you want it to be the star.

 

Sizing

Generally expect the sweater to slightly increase in width as the knit relaxes. In our experience, this is about an inch of stretch.
