DOUWE | Skipper's Jumper aus 100 % unbehandelter Jawalan-Wolle
Jawalan is an untreated 100% wool quality. By keeping the wool as natural as possible, the original properties of the fiber are preserved: warmth, resilience, and a vibrant, authentic look. The result is a knit with character, developed by one of Europe's most renowned wool specialists.
The Douwe fisherman's sweater is full of authentic details. Since 1886, our Rooscap sailor's cap has featured all black haberdashery. The cord, the buttons, and the Oak Leaf band, all black. We have also added these characteristic details to the Douwe fisherman's sweater.
Thus, you will find black zippers, black labels, and a black gift on every Douwe fisherman's sweater. In addition, we have also incorporated details from the past into the sweater. All cuffs are finished with our signature stitch.
This stitch has a history where all villages and towns had their own detail. In this way, it could be discovered where the crew of a ship or a drowning person came from. This is now a detail on our items, but in the past, it served to trace the origin of sailors. A wonderful story, isn't it?
