With this handsome Aran knit sweater, traditional Irish craftsmanship melds with a fresh new take on an old design. The stylish ribbed collar can be worn up or down, while the eye-catching tan leather zip pull adds a polished touch. Both of these features fit in perfectly with the more classic aspects of the Aran sweater: the entire thing is woven from the finest Irish merino wool, prized all over the world for its softness, breathability, ability to hold its shape after washing, and even sweat-wicking qualities.
This Irish fisherman sweater also features three iconic stitches native to the Aran Islands, communities in the west of Ireland from whence the Aran sweater itself hails. The trellis stitch is an analog to the stone walls of fields all over the Aran Islands; the cable stitch serves as a recreation of the ropes used at sea by the Islands’ fishermen; and the Tree of Life stitch, a kind of fabric-based blessing, bestows a wish for a long and happy life upon the wearer.
Sturdy and comfortable, this Men's Half-Zip Aran Fisherman sweater makes an incredible gift that will doubtlessly be treasured by its owner for years upon years to come.

Super soft!
This sweater is seriously the coziest thing I own! The wool is super soft and keeps me warm without feeling bulky or itchy. I’ve been practically living in it since I got it!

Just perfect!!
I absolutely love how easy this sweater goes with everything! I’ve been pairing it with my Irish flat cap and jeans for a casual look. On colder days, I’ve layered it under a coat with boots

Outstanding craftsmanship
I searched the Internet for months to locate an Irish fisherman sweater knit in Aran cable patterns. I located and ordered this sweater and am very satisfied with not only the quality of the craftsmanship but also how soft the wool is. In addition this sweater is true to the stated size and it shipped quickly.

Men's Sweaters
I recently brought tow sweaters for men as Christmas gifts. I bought the fisherman's sweater and a half zip up sweater. My husband and my daughters boyfriend like there sweaters very much. Your shipping was very prompt considering I was a last minute shopper at Christmas Time. Your order came before my Amazon Prime order which I was unsatisfied with. I will be shopping with your company again. I was very pleased with the whole experience and the quality of your merchendise.
