Its been a busy week

This week's been a busy one, and we've seen the arrival of some pretty amazing stock. Two newcomers to the store have landed on our doorstep, and most certainly haven't disappointed. We've had S.N.S Herning knits, straight from Denmark and Ally Capellino waxed cotton luggage as well as a few extra pieces from Our Legacy, A.P.C. and Filippa K to top off those collections.

Firstly, SNS Herning were founded by Soren Skyt in the Danish town of Herning eighty years ago utilising the bubble knitting patterns much desired bubble knit patterns that offered perfect protection and warmth from the elements to fisherman whilst at sea. They are knitted on looms using Jacquard strapping, and to this day the knits are still produced in Herning using original machinery, techniques and knowledge that gained them their reputation.

The Stark is now an S.N.S staple and here it is in the charchoal grey. Its a long slim-fitting cardigan, and the heavy cable knits are produced on the original looms in the town of Herning, Denmark. It doesn't get much better.

In the archive since 1979, this is another classic piece from S.N.S. Herning. In the typical Breton style (blue and scarlet), this striped crewneck pullover is knitted with the same virgin wool and the same techniques at the S.N.S. factory in Herning, Denmark. It has three metal buttons on the collar, and fits slim to the body.

S.N.S Heavy Scarf Brown. This scarf is based on the sleeve pattern of their famous knits, and is open ended to allow you to warm your hands inside it. Its a staple S.N.S. piece which has won them their reputation they have today.
S.N.S Heavy Scarf Burgundy.
S.N.S have been knitted their renowned fisherman's sweater for over sixty years now, and the Rem scarf is essentially a sleeve from this sweater with open ends to keep your fingers warm. The bubble knitted pattern is more significant with ribbed ends.
This beanie takes the bubble knitting pattern of the classic fisherman's jumper to produce a navy blue merino wool beanie hat with extended ribbed bottom.

To add to a growing collection of great suiting from Filippa K suiting, we now have the Christian Cool Wool suit jacket in grey tweed:
