FAQs
What is the fit of this sweater?
This sweater is designed with a regular fit, providing a comfortable and standard silhouette that is neither too tight nor too loose.
How warm is this sweater?
Crafted from 100% superfine lambswool, the sweater offers excellent warmth, making it suitable for cooler weather conditions.
Can I machine wash this sweater?
It is not recommended to machine wash this 100% lambswool sweater. Hand washing in cold water with a wool-specific detergent or dry cleaning is the preferred method to maintain its quality.
What does 'fully fashioned' mean?
Fully fashioned knitting means the garment is constructed by knitting pieces to shape, resulting in less waste and a better fit, with seams that are often sewn together by hand or machine.
How should I care for the embroidered graphic?
The embroidered GANT graphic should be treated with care during washing and ironing. Avoid direct heat or harsh scrubbing over the embroidered area.
Is this sweater suitable for sensitive skin?
Superfine lambswool is known for its softness. However, individuals with extremely sensitive skin might still find any wool product to be slightly irritating. Proper washing can help maintain softness.
What other colors or sizes are available?
This listing is specifically for the Red XXL size. GANT offers this style in various colors and sizes, which may be available through other product listings or retailers.
Troubleshooting
Sweater feels itchy
Ensure you are washing it with a wool-specific detergent. Superfine lambswool is generally soft, but initial wear or improper washing can sometimes lead to a feeling of roughness.
Sweater has lost its shape
Reshape the garment gently while damp after washing and lay it flat to dry. Avoid stretching or wringing the wool.
Small holes or thinning areas appear
This could indicate moth damage. Ensure proper storage with moth repellents and check the garment regularly. Professional repair might be an option for minor damage.
Color appears faded
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause colors to fade. Wash inside out with a color-safe detergent if necessary.

Care Instructions:
To maintain the quality and longevity of your 100% lambswool sweater:
- Washing: Hand wash in cold water with a wool-specific detergent. Alternatively, dry cleaning is recommended. Avoid machine washing or using hot water, as this can cause shrinkage and damage the wool fibers.
- Drying: Lay the sweater flat on a clean towel to air dry. Reshape gently while damp. Do not tumble dry or wring the garment.
- Storage: Store folded in a cool, dry place. Consider using cedar blocks or sachets to protect against moths, especially during long-term storage.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting, preferably while the garment is still slightly damp, using a pressing cloth. Avoid direct contact with the iron on high heat.
