Skipper Collar Sweater EMANUELE

DESCRIPTION

In the early 19th century, Lord Raglan's tailor developed a sleeve construction that extended directly to the neckline rather than starting at the shoulder seam as was standard. This made the garment easier to put on and take off while offering the officer greater freedom of movement. Over time, this distinctive sleeve style was adopted by other tailors and fashion houses and was named the “raglan sleeve” in honor of the man for whom it was originally developed.

In this pure merino wool sweater, the raglan sleeves are more than just a stylish design element. The prominent decreases at the sleeve attachment are a hallmark of "fully fashioned" knitting—a meticulous craft defined by sustainability.

The buttonless skipper collar ensures a relaxed, casual elegance. It sits loosely around the neck, does not constrict, and provides a free, comfortable feel. The distinctively ribbed, soft cuffs on the sleeves and hem ensure a good fit without feeling tight.

Merino wool provides an optimal body climate, as it warms in the cold, cools in the heat, and is both breathable and odor-neutralizing. The fine fibers are exceptionally soft and pleasant against the skin—with no itching at all.

Combine this sweater for a sporty-elegant, relaxed "casual weekend look" with light-colored jeans, a quilted vest, and white sneakers. Paired with chinos or wool trousers, you are perfectly dressed for the office or a dinner. Leather sneakers or Chelsea boots make an excellent match.
 
This model was conceived and brought to life in a creative collaboration with Munich-based content creator Tobi Haas.
