Men's Blue Midweight Cotton Linen Sark Mock Neck Gansey Jumper

Organic Cotton Linen Guernsey Inspired Sweater Rooted in British seafaring heritage, our Sark cotton linen Gansey sweater is inspired by the iconic Guernsey jumpers once worn by fishermen navigating the harsh North Sea. Reimagined for modern life, this midweight (690g) knit blends the durability of traditional knitwear with breathable comfort and refined craftsmanship. Knitted from a robust and skin-friendly blend of 70% cotton and 30% linen, this sweater is designed to endure, offering cool, natural comfort through warmer months and reliable insulation when layered over lighter pieces. The textured patterning and intricate stitch details echo those of classic gansey knits, while the drop shoulder construction and relaxed silhouette bring all-day comfort and breathability.
