Bernard C. Day Under JerseyNigel Cabourn

Description

Originally released as part of 'Limited Edition 2: Scott's Last Expedition', a now seminal collection timed to coincide with the hundredth anniversary of the fateful venture. Working closely with the Scott Polar Research Institute in Cambridge, Nigel Cabourn spent six years researching the expedition and this authentic jersey piece is based on an actual garment stored in the Institute's archives, which was worn as a base layer in the freezing weather. Having worked with German knitwear experts Merz B Schwanen for a number of seasons, Nigel chose them to recreate the jersey, using their antique circular knitting machines in the Swabian Alps. 60% Merino Wool 40% Cotton Seamless Circular Knit Buttoned Shoulder Vintage Style Buttons Chest Pocket Ribbed Knit Cuffs Limited Edition Numbered Neck Label Made in German Alps, Hand Finished in England Limited Edition Presentation Box with Hand Written Label
