Shetland Woollen Co. Shaggy Crewneck Sweatshirt

Shetland Woollen Co. Shaggy Crewneck Sweatshirt in Laurel. Reworked in an attractive laurel colourway for the season, this edition of the signature Shetland Woollen Co. knitted sweatshirt features a distinctive shaggy textural finish and integrated ribbed details that encourage a close and comfortable fit. Knitted from 100% pure new wool sourced from the Shetland Islands in Scotland, this jumper has a traditional, high quality finish that will see you through cold winter days. Around the curved neckline a neat integrated ribbed pattern increases ease of entry and movement whilst around the edge of the body and long sleeves wider cuffs have been incorporated to provide a slightly fitted finish. For a classic look branding has been kept to a minimum with a rectangular woven label positioned on the inner nape of the neck.

Originally gaining popularity as a style worn by Ivy League students before being noticed by the likes of Mick Jagger, JF Kennedy and George Bush Jnr, Shetland Woollen Co. sweatshirts are immediately recognisable for their distinctive shaggy effect which is achieved by the select yarn being brushed multiple times. Using locally-sourced premium-grade yarn, production takes place in Scotland where classic colourings and traditional crew neck knits are favoured as essentials for protection from bitter winds during the winter months.
