“Excellent quality product clearly made with the finest materials and attention to detail. The sweater is very comfortable to wear and performs as expected, warm but without ever feeling clammy. I am always very cautious about wool as I can find it irritating, however the sweater is extremely soft without any discomfort even around the neck. The sizing worked well for me using the Shackleton sizing guide - I have a medium (I am 42" but often I fall between M&L) which is a snug fit but not tight or restrictive and quite flattering! It's not cheap.. but I guess you get what you pay for.”

“visited the Ross Sea (Antarctica) recently and a naturalist wore a sweater I really liked. Found out that it's a Shackleton sweater that he had gotten as a gift from a former passenger. My research showed that I could buy one from you and we had an exchange about a size that would fit me. Shackleton became my hero after a trip from Ushuaia to So. Georgia that was designed around his exploration. At the Ross Sea I visited his hut that was preserved from the Nimrod expedition. A simply awesome experience!!”

“My second of these - I've another in grey, which indicates I'm a fan! It's a good chunky jumper with excellent detailing - tunic length (so a bit longer than standard) with side splits in the hem, ribbed roll neck collar and cuffs, and a chequerboard detailing in the shoulders. And a cool label with the Shackleton star and a quote from Ernest on it (I'll let you read your own) . The wool is soft, not scratchy despite being heavy duty, sort of like a merino, but heavier. Fine next to the skin with just a t-shirt underneath. I washed the first one (20 degree machine wool cycle with a wool specific detergent) and it came out fine - I checked before buying the second one. It's absolutely a cold weather jumper. As the temp has pushed up in recent weeks it'll soon be relegated to the back of the wardrobe until November. But it definitely a long-term keeper of a jumper that will last long term, both style-wise and quality as well. Good stuff.”
