The wool has a fibre diameter of c. 18.5 microns, it is one of the world's finest and softest Lambs Wools (most average 21-24 microns).

The wool arrives in Scotland, where it is spun and dyed on the banks Loch Leven in Kinross by Todd & Duncan, one of the finest Scottish Mills. They use a pioneering and cyclical process that helps to protect the environment in and around the Loch.

What are the press saying?

"Navygrey's new OVERSIZE is reminiscent of Phoebe Philo-era Celine, with reassuring weight and density." FT Weekend.

What are the pieces made out of?

The OVERSIZE is made out of 100% Scottish-spun Lambswool. Each piece is knitted into a luxurious 3 gauge, with 4ply wool yarn creating a soft and chunky jumper for maximum warmth.

What is the recommendations on sizing and fit?

The OVERSIZE is a thicker-weight knit that drapes rather than grips, designed to be oversized without needing to size up. We recommend you take your usual size.

If you are wanting a more exaggerated oversized look we recommend sizing up. But please note that wool does stretch a little with wear and gravity.

If you’re a size 10UK a size S will be perfect, and a size M is perfect if you’re a size 12UK. If you’re a size 14UK, an M will fit, but if you’re noticeably broader or E+ bra size, you might wish to size up to an L for a little more wiggle room across the bust.

If you are narrow shouldered, we do not recommend sizing up, due to the nature of the drop sleeve.
