Aran Woollen Mills Mens Aran Half Zip Merino Sweater
Product Details
Knitted with 100% Merino wool and lined with brushed fleece, this half zip Aran knit sweater is the perfect piece for keeping warm for both performance and leisurewear.
The Aran knit patterns on the sweater date back generations, and symbolize various aspects of life on the remote Aran Islands on the west coast of Ireland. The honeycomb symbolizes the hard work of the honeybee and the sweet rewards of labor. The beautiful cable patterns invoke the promise of a good catch and are representative of the ropes of Aran fishermen, for whom sweaters like these were originally knit. Knitted in Ireland by Aran Woollen Mills, based in County Mayo since 1965, this sweater is available in contemporary graphite grey as well as the traditional white natural tone of undyed sheep's wool, from which the original Aran sweaters were made.
