Motolegends Woollen Rollneck in ecru Product Information

When the war broke out in 1939, it quickly became apparent that there was a shortage of basic-issue clothing for all branches of the services. And that some of it was simply not up to the job. A little more than a year after the commencement of hostilities, a set of guidelines, called the Warnorm, was issued so that volunteer groups could hand-knit sweaters, jumpers, and other woollen essentials for the armed forces. Women's groups, Knitting Circles, Comforts Committees, and even schoolchildren, were encouraged to do their part for the war effort. The sweaters were supplied to all branches of the military; the Army, the Navy, and the RAF. We have recreated these jumpers as faithfully as we could, using five-ply wool, to the original pattern. Although we have to report that our version is not hand-knitted by schoolchildren.

Please note: Hand wash only. Do not tumble dry. Do not use biological detergents. May be dry cleaned.

Duncan: Quality

A really great woollen jumper. Rarely see this quality nowadays. The fit is perfect and it keeps you nice and warm. What more can I say except that I love wearing it!

Susan Clark: Lovely Warm Jumper

Purchased this as a Christmas present for my husband. Was very impressed with the updates on delivery status and availability. It was packaged well and the quality of the jumper was really good it is warm and sizes are accurate. Needless to say my husband was very impressed with the quality and fit. I wouldnt hesitate in recommending both the jumper and Motolegends to my biking pals.

Les: Great Product

Very similar to the jumper I wore as a submariner in the RN many moons ago. Warm, comfortable, a good fit and perfect to wear under my classic leather coat when out on my classic BMW. Service as ever was excellent so no complaints at all. If you want a stylish classic piece of motorcycle wear this cant be faulted.

Ben: Superb!

Roland: Great Jumper
