North Sea Clothing London

I came across these amazing knit sweaters by North Sea Clothing today. Really diggin' the longer waist rib, and you can't go wrong with a sweater that was issued to the Royal Navy in WWII. I have yet to see these available outside of the UK, but the prices seem pretty fair.

“The Submariner Sweater was War Office issue to the Royal Navy in both World Wars. In the 1950s motorcyclists adopted them to wear under a Barbour or Belstaff jacket to keep out the cold. They used be available from army surplus stores until about 10 years ago until original supplies “dried up”. I had many enquiries from devotees who wanted one of these classic sweaters, so decided to get them remade in the same heavy-gauge knit as the original, but improving the fit slightly as the WW2 issue was very long in the body. These hard-wearing sweaters are manufactured by a family firm in Nottinghamshire, England, using pure new wool and will last for many years.”
