John Simons

Navy Brushed Shetland Crew Neck

Navy Brushed Shetland Crew Neck

Few items evoke the mystique of Autumn and Winter as much as the Shetland Wool Crew Neck Sweater, featuring the all-important saddle shoulder, ribbed collar, cuffs, and hem, and an exquisite high neckline. An Ivy League staple, we believe one would struggle to find a look quite as compelling as that of a Shetland sweater sandwiched between a Tweed jacket and an Oxford Cotton button-down shirt.

Hand linked and knitted in Scotland on the Shetland Isles and available in green, navy, and grey, these sweaters feature a super-soft brushed finish that recalls the iconic J.Press Shaggy Dog Sweater and is sure to keep you as comfortable as it will warm. The hand linking process, which involves carefully joining each piece of the sweater by hand, results in a seamless finish that enhances durability and comfort while allowing for greater flexibility and shape retention.

THE MODERNIST OVERCOAT

The John Simons Overcoat is based upon a vintage Burberry model famously purchased and worn by our very own proprietor in 1961, whilst working as a window dresser for Cecil Gee on Charing Cross Road. With a seamless one piece raglan sleeve, which flatters all shapes and sizes, our overcoat is the perfect combination of functionality and elegance.

This particular model is produced in a beautiful Harris Tweed fabric. This overcoat is reminiscent of early 1950s American outerwear, in the period that predates the Ivy League Boom years of the latter 1950s and 60s. A veritable slice of Mid Century Americana, produced with fabric from one of the oldest British Mills and delivered direct from Chiltern Street.
