Filson Fair Isle Sweater | Made in Scotland

Made with undyed pure Shetland wool. Our Fairisle Crewneck Sweaters are crafted in Scotland with true Shetland Wool, which is widely regarded as the world’s best. Shetland was the wool used when Mt. Everest was climbed for the first time. Shetland sheep are native to Scotland’s northernmost island, and are prized for their fine, lightweight, and strong fleece. Fairisle sweaters are knitted with completely natural, undyed wool. Knitted in the Fair Isle technique, a style of knitting developed on the tiny island midway between Scotland’s Orkney and Shetland islands. These sweaters feature intricate patterns that reflect the sheep’s true original colors. They are surprising light and durable, with exceptional heat-trapping ability. As with all of our woolen goods, these remarkable sweaters will insulate even if they get wet. ITEM NO. FMMAG0016 MATERIAL 100% True Shetland wool CARE Dry clean only ORIGIN Made in the UK
