The people of Fair Isle, part of the Shetland Islands, have been making and selling knitwear in their recognisable patterns since around 1850. The big upswing came when the Prince of Wales wore one in public 1921 and from that point it has been part of the classic menswear wardrobe. William Lockie's interpretation is knitted from the softest lambswool in genuine patterns making it a luxury version of the more rugged original.

The Details

The Knit

100% 2-ply Scottish spun geelong lambswool from the best pedigree sheep reared in South Australia.

William Lockie knit all their products “tight with extra twist” to ensure their knitwear does not pill or bobble. Washed in the soft water of river Teviot to ensure its luxury feel.

The Care

Hand wash cold (30 degrees Celsius) only. Use an enzyme free soap based wool or silk wash product. A machine hand wash program with a delicate spin cycle can preferably be used. Pull to shape and dry flat away from heat. We recommend washing at an early stage to help set the fibres and reduce any pilling. Wash regularly to revive the original shape and feel.

Choose size from chest in cm.

For Bladen tailored jackets: If over 185 cm height you might need a long size (UK**L) and if under 175 you might need a short size (UK**S). Sleeves can be shortened (a lot) or lengthened (3-4 cm) and waist can be taken in (up to 8 cm) and let out (up to 6cm) at an alterations tailor. This is why picking size from your chest is so important.
