Men's Aran Quarter Zip Wool Sweater

Stay warm like an Irish fisherman would in our Men’s Irish Country Sweater! Our quarter-zip turtleneck sweater features an intricate cabled knit that honors traditional Irish design. Irish fisherman sweaters are now famous worldwide, but back in the 1890s, they were first knit by locals on the Aran Islands who needed thick and warm sweaters to keep them warm while working out in their boats on the sea.

Today, SAOL is a modern Irish knits producer that translates these classic designs into modern and updated garments. Skiddaw is a pebbled sandy natural color that is reminiscent of the first Aran sweaters, which were made of undyed wool. 100% Merino wool makes our Country Sweater incredibly warm and super soft. Ribbing at the turtleneck, wrists, and waist add sturdiness to the knit and create a contrast to the body’s dramatic cable pattern.

To care for this modern classic, dry clean, or wash by hand in lukewarm water with a gentle laundry soap. Lay flat to dry.
