Men’s Zippered Sweater

Traditional Irish wool at its best

Look of the Irish

I knew to find any sweater worthy of a spot in the Stauer catalog, I’d have to make the trip to the country world-famous for their sweaters. The quality is legendary. The sweaters themselves are steeped in Irish lore and tradition.

We are proud to present traditional Irish knitwear from one of the world’s top sources. For generations, they’ve blended quality and tradition with the latest designs and colors, remaining true to Irish heritage, yet purposefully fashion-foward and relevant. A mindset we respect here at Stauer.

Merino is one of the finest grades of wool. While incredibly durable, it doesn’t have the itchy feel of some wools. And while Merino wool is excellent at keeping body heat, you won’t experience overheating. Menswear expert Tom Kalendarian, executive vice president at Barneys New York says “its wearability is fantastic.”

There is meaning in the very patterns. Take for example the traditional Fisherman Knit Sweater. According to legend, the stitch patterns were more than decorative: the honeycomb represented the hardworking bee, the cable was a prayer for safety, the diamond a wish for success and wealth and the basket stitch represented hope for a plentiful catch. 

No matter which of these fine wool pieces catches your eye, rest assured you’ll be dressing yourself in more than the finest Merino wool available, you’ll be wearing a legend.
