A classic woollen Guernsey with a mock neck collar and dropped shoulder featuring a textured moss stitch, British wool and a contemporary fit.

Also known as a Gansey, the traditional fisherman’s sweater was hard-wearing, thick and exceedingly woolly. You would also find that the jumper’s textured yoke told land folk what area of the coast you came from. Our Guernsey is based on the classic, perfect to beat out the cold so that you’ll want to wear it day in day out.

Made from worsted wool, whose longer, stronger fibres create a tighter knit that helps the sweater retain its shape and resist pilling. Properly cared for, a Guernsey can last a lifetime. It’s a collaboration with UK manufacturers, and made with 100% British wool.

Notes:
