Men's Lambswool Sweater Collection - The Lanam Shop

Men's Geelong Lambswool Sweaters

Knit in the heart of the Scottish Borders, our men's lambswool sweatersare crafted of Geelong lambswool yarn. Heritage Merino sheep flocks in Geelong, Australia, are clipped before reaching five months of age, and this lambswool is spun in England by Z. Hinchliffe & Sons. Longer, softer, and more durable, the Geelong variety is superior to the classic Merino wool sweater — though it technically remains a Merino sweater. With a selection of plain knit lambswool crew neck sweater styles to select from, including saddle shoulder and Italian sleeve, we also offer a traditional all-over lambswool fair isle sweater design.

Collection: Men's Super-Fine Geelong & Merino Lambswool Sweaters

To be considered lambswool, fibers must be collected from the first clipping of lambs (no older than seven months) and have a total length of 50mm or less. While lambswool can be collected from any variety of lambs, for our lambswool men's sweater offerings, The Lanam Shop uses fiber from pedigree sheep in Southern Australia. Revered for its softness and incredible warmth-to-weight ratio, our men's lambswool jumpers and men's lambswool cardigan sweater styles are of the finest quality. Similarly, our super-Geelong offerings hail from the pedigree Merino herds of Geelong, Australia. With a micron measurement of 15 or less, the fiber used in our men's Geelong sweaters is considered to be of "superfine quality." Moreover, the Geelong wool used also meets the criteria for being considered lambswool. This incredible combination of age, pedigree, and fiber size contributes to the unparalleled warmth and softness of our men's lambswool sweaters from Scotland. Our four-ply, heavy-weight lambswool shawl collar cardigan is perfect for a cold day. Pair it with a men's Viyella shirt for a traditional English country look.
