Product History

Born on the island of Guernsey as early as the 15th century, the Guernsey sweater was originally hand-knitted by sailors' wives to withstand the cold and damp. Adopted by the Royal Navy in the 19th century, it became a symbol of lasting craftsmanship, made from 100% natural British wool, seamless, using traditional methods. Every detail of the knit has a meaning: the cables on the shoulders evoke the ropes of boats, the diamond patterns under the arms facilitate movement, and the tight stitches offer optimal protection against wind and water.
