Product Information

Full details

The Gant Barstriped Lambswool Rugger is designed for individuals seeking a sophisticated, preppy aesthetic combined with the superior insulation of natural fibers. Its primary benefit is the exceptional warmth provided by high-quality lambswool, making it an ideal layering piece for autumn and winter wardrobes. However, potential owners should note that lambswool requires specific hand-washing or dry-cleaning care to maintain its shape and avoid fiber damage.

FAQs

Can I machine wash this rugger?

It is highly recommended to avoid machine washing, as agitation and heat can shrink the lambswool. Hand washing or professional dry cleaning is the safest option.

Is the wool sourced ethically?

Gant maintains strict quality standards for their raw materials, ensuring high-quality lambswool for all their knitwear products.

Should I hang this garment in my closet?

No, you should fold the garment and store it in a drawer to prevent the weight of the wool from stretching the seams.

What is the best way to remove wrinkles?

Use a garment steamer at a safe distance or let the rugger hang in a steamy bathroom for a few minutes; avoid pressing directly with a hot iron.

Does this rugger run true to size?

The Gant Barstriped Rugger typically follows standard sizing, though it is designed for a slightly relaxed, classic fit. Check the official size guide for specific measurements.

Troubleshooting

Garment is showing signs of pilling

Use a fabric shaver or a specialized wool comb to gently remove pills from the surface of the wool.

The wool feels itchy against the skin

Wear a lightweight cotton or synthetic base layer underneath the rugger to provide a barrier between the wool and your skin.

The item lost its shape after washing

Gently re-dampen the garment and lay it flat on a clean surface, pulling it back into its original dimensions, then allow it to air dry.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because this garment is crafted from natural lambswool, care instructions are critical to longevity. Always store the rugger folded rather than hung on a coat hanger to prevent the shoulders from stretching or distorting. For cleaning, professional dry cleaning is recommended. If you choose to wash it at home, use cold water and a specialized wool detergent, then reshape the garment flat on a towel to air dry away from direct sunlight or heat sources. It pairs exceptionally well with dark denim or tailored wool trousers.
