Great quality jumper.
I doubt you will need any other type of jumper.It is machine knitted merino wool with no defects that I have found. The knitting is strong and the end product thick, warm and water resistant (splash it and the water doesn't soak in, get it rained on and it doesn't absorb the water). I am sat here wearing it now.Not sure what more you would need from a review other than... I rarely spend money on clothes and when I do I look for quality at a low price, which doesn't always work out. I reckon this is the most expensive item of clothing I have bought in a long time and I bought it simply because I will not need to buy one again for many years. I will update this review should it fail but so far, in my somewhat dangerous work, it has come through with flying colours. I know this winter has been mild but being able to be out in it with only this and a t-shirt underneath has been great. I have had some comments that it itches peoples skin, this is a skin defect, not a jumper one. No wonder a natural fabric itches if you've been wearing plastic for years, it's your body adapting.Buy one.

Loved It - But Came Up Too Large
Lovely jumper but sadly had to return it as it came up too large else would of kept it. I tend to be medium or large depending on style/fit - in this case should of gone for medium. Would of definitely re-ordered the medium but alas out of stock - shame!Follow Up - Had medium back in stock but was £20 more than large!! Never understand different prices for different sizes! Didn't purchase, why should I pay 25% more for a jumper in my size. Lowered my rating from 5 stars to 2 stars because of this ridiculous disparity.

Lovely thick warm jumper. But if you are between sizes, choose the smaller size.
Nicely made, comfortable and very warm.Only minor complaint is sizing/fit.I chose size L for a 44-46 chest and the body of the jumper is about right (if a little generous) and sleeve length fine. However the diameter/circumference of the roll neck itself is a bit too generous. But I would buy another, probably in the same size.

Warm as toast
We live in a relatively warm part of France with a short sharp winter, local sweaters more 'fashion' than practical and so bought online. We chose this sweater as it is lightweight compared to really thick jumpers but very very warm.

Otherwise I am quite happy with this Sweater
The Roll neck rides a bit high but this is expected on a Submariners Design . Otherwise I am quite happy with this Sweater. With May Thanks, The Seasons Greetings to you all. Dennis Richard Cole.

Check sizing
Lovely thing - just be careful to check the measurements- I’m a medium occasionally large in most things, but small in this.Warm and quite heavy weight. Worth the cost imo

Warm as toast and comfy.
I ordered my usual size and it fit well-loose bot not too baggy. This jumper is warm as toast and keeps the wind at bay. Well worth the money and would definitely buy again.
