Fisherman Sweater - Navy

$265.00

The Skyt family's iconic original Fisherman Sweater, unchanged from its inception in the 1920s. It is knitted in a semi-textured fabric with their signature bubbles that create air pockets that improve insulation and breathability.

Originally crafted for fishermen, this piece is made from 100% pure new wool, which has a myriad of benefits over recycled wool including durability, breathability, and water repellency. Knitted & sewn in Riga, Latvia on the same machines the family has been using for nearly 100 years.

Care

About the Brand

S.N.S. Herning

The S.N.S Herning trademark dates back to 1919 and comes from the founder, Søren Nielsen Skyt, and the town, Herning, where the business was conceived. Søren was a pioneer in the mechanization of the "bubble" knit, a technique that creates air pockets that increase a garment's insulation without increasing the amount of material used to make it. Previously only achievable through tedious hand-knitting, Søren's solution allowed for greater volume without any sacrifice in durability. The company remains in the hands of the the Skyt family today, who devotedly still knit these iconic Danish sweaters on the same machines that Søren developed in the 1930s with exceptional raw materials like 100% virgin wool. Traditionally worn by fishermen, S.N.S. Herning sweaters will hold up to the rigors of life and work and keep you warm all the while.
