Fisherman Chic
Norwegian Sweater at L.L. Bean
It may have taken nearly 100 years in the following example, but we think it proves the point that everything old is new again. And when it comes to style, what could be better than vintage being chic?
Building on the current trends of skinny jeans, Tretorn sneakers and Mad Men – GQ is reporting that L.L. Bean is bringing back one of their classics – the Norwegian Fisherman’s Sweater. This iconic piece dates back 96 years and, being made from naturally water-resistant unscoured wool, its sure to keep you warm and dry all winter long.
GQ advises, “style-wise it’s tough to go wrong here, whether your tastes tend toward the urban haute bourgeoisie or something more like Richard Proenneke’s “Alone in the Wilderness.’” We can’t help but agree.
