The Virgil Crewneck in Navy
A ridiculously soft crewneck made from a Merino and Yak Wool fabric, with a tone on tone casting waistband and neckline. This sweater took its inspiration from from a sweatshirt worn by Steve McQueen in the film 'The Great Escape'. He plays the role of a US prisoner of war Captain Virgil Hilts' - also know as 'The Cooler King' on account of how often he was put into solitary!
It's a mid-weight sweater so not bulky, and due to the Merino and Yak combination, for a relatively light sweater, it is very warm also. It takes it style cues from a classic American sweatshirt, but its refined fabric and construction elevates it into something very versatile.
