Best jumper

[The Ruminant]

I like a good, chunky woollen jumper. I’ve tried woo lovers but find quality v poor. I’m currently wearing a Samuel Windsor - poor finish but ok once you’ve sewn up the badly sewn seams etc.

What is everyone else wearing, Jumper wise?

the one i was given for xmas ---would be rude not to

All of mine are wool ones that come from Charity shops.
You have to find shops in well to do areas where there are plenty of old people who didn't have central heating.

Sometimes find a nice Jaeger one!

MOD/ex-army types, but what you get regarding quality/size is a lottery. I assume these are for work, so Ebay. They usually get full of holes fairly quickly because of sparks from the grinder but are still good enough for work.

I bought a ski top from the middle of Lidl before Christmas at a discounted price of £3.89
I can't believe how warm it is, I wish I'd bought 3 or 4
It's really clingy & shows up my gut, so I wear a sweat shirt over the top of it

 

[Montexy]

British army one, £4 each and last a long time. Think how much money the MOD spend on their design and quality for rugged use and I don't think there's much that can touch them and at £4 each you can't go far wrong.

Get an Icelandic jumper, I've got one here windproof lining, Icelandic wool bloody hot when your working in it, Google Nordic outdoor or icewear

 

[Suffolk Serf]

For work, ones with moth holes in that managed a year or two for better wear.

Who wears jumpers? Hardly ever see anyone in a jumper these days. Fleeces and body warmers/gillets here

Good question, but I prefer a good woollen jumper, they support (hopefully) British farmers, they don’t shed micro-plastics, they heat up when wetted (true) and I feel they look good.... on a farmer!

Depending on what work you're doing... I have one of these

https://www.decathlon.co.uk/p/hunting-windproof-wool-pullover-900/_/R-p-302182

Pure wool, with a 2nd thin polyester windbreaker lining. You do cook in it if you're doing a lot of physical moving about about but it is brilliant when out on the bike - especially at lambing time. Wearing it this week with these cold snowy conditions, keep toasty warm on the bike.



I also have 2 wool Edinburgh Woolen Mill jumpers which must be about 18 years old. They're also very good.

 

[Tractorstant]

if you can find one in the sale, any of the Stone Island wool jumpers are indestructible, had one for about 20 years, before they get a touch Chavy!

My old rugby shirts, with a sweatshirt over the top when it's cold

Something cheap

 

[Barleycorn]

Back in the day Bridgedale made army type jumpers, don't know if they're still going?

Got an old Bridgedale guernsey sweater I've grown out of, must be 20 years old, fancied a new one but Bridgedale only seem to do socks now.

Jumpers aren't resistant enough to the wind for me prefer a zipped fleece
