Often called the king of knitwear, the Shawl Collar Cardigan has to be one of  the most versatile pieces of mens clothing.

A key layering piece all year round.

It can be worn in a number of ways -  over a tee for a casual autumn look, or layered over a thick shirt or other knitwear piece for the mid winter. Casual or smart, outside or indoors its the one item of clothing that can double up equally as outerwear or as a  comfy indoor layer. 

Named after James Brudenell, 7th Earl of Cardigan, the style was based on a garment worn by British officers in the 1800s and sometimes used as a substitute for a jacket. Since worn by seafarers, marines and many more notables.

Our version of this iconic piece is made without compromise - Knitted in a thick chunky wool rib, with leather acorn buttons down the front, patch pockets, a high shawl collar that can be flipped up, and a fold back cuff which can be adjusted so the sleeve is not too short.

A chunkier knit than most other versions you'll find. Ours has flat finish fully fashioned seams throughout.

This item is an investment piece for sure, but a lifetime purchase that will never go out of style. An essential piece of kit for anyones wardrobe.
