Women's Irish Aran Cardigan with Zip

This Irish Aran Cardigan is the perfect winter staple for any wardrobe. Its colors are ideal for the end of fall when you're craving that perfect mix between dark greens and oranges. The zip detail on this cardigan is what makes it truly unique; every single one of our sweaters are hand-knit in Ireland, which means no two sweaters will ever be alike!

The yarn used to make this fisherman cardigan is made of 100% fine merino wool, which means it's cozy, lightweight, and breathable all at the same time. It also has the Irish Aran fisherman cable stitch perfectly embroidered on the front and back.

We love that this full-zip cardigan has a stunning silver symbol on the zip to make it stand out from the crowd. This women's fisherman cable knit cardigan is cozy and snug, guaranteed to keep you warm on cold days.

Men's Merino Wool Half Zip Aran Sweater

This beautiful half zip Aran sweater with a leather pull is the perfect addition to any man's wardrobe. The smooth, soft wool yarn is 100% merino lambs, and is both breathable and lightweight, so it's great for layering or wearing on its own.

Similar to the women's Aran half zip sweater listed above, this jumper is also finished with the classic Irish Aran fisherman cable stitch in a beautiful traditional green color. 

The zip fastening allows you to adjust how snugly the sweater fits around your body. We love this jumper because it is both simple and stylish. Wear this with a pair of jeans, boots, or even your favorite suit for an effortlessly chic look!

Fishermans Rib Half Zip Sweater

The Fisherman’s rib merino wool sweater, once again, uses the traditional rib stitch pattern. This is the rib stitch pattern that was traditionally worn by Irish fishermen when out on the rough seas of the wild Atlantic.

The main feature of this elegant men's sweater is the color contrast on the inside collar. It is knit using a complementary color, in order to combine this classic sweater with contemporary taste.

Women's Aran Sweater Coat Side Zip

This stunning Irish Aran cable knit 3/4 length coat is a favorite among our customers on both sides of the Atlantic. It is made of 100% merino wool in Kildare, Ireland, by an Irish manufacturer called Aran Crafts.

We can see beautiful cable knit stitching on the front and back, but what really makes this cardigan interesting is the side zip feature, giving it a biker jacket feel. It combines traditional and modern elements of Irish style, to give us a unique and eye-catching result.

This full-zip cardigan is very warm, but it's still lightweight enough that you can wear this coat in the Spring or Fall when the weather isn't quite as cold yet.

Aran Half Zip Sweater with Celtic Design

If you want to really stand out in the crowd, this unique Celtic-inspired sweater is perfect for you! It's made of 100% merino wool with a Celtic design across the center of the chest and arms. This is a stunning zip sweater that is perfect for any Irish occasion.

The inside and top of the collar are also knit in tundra green to compliment the jacquard beautifully. The sweater has a half-zip design with a leather pull, making it easy to wear and take off.

Men's Fisherman Full Zip Cardigan Brown Marl

This men’s Aran cardigan is such a popular choice with men due to its style and also its practicality. The fisherman full-zip men's cardigan is really warm and comfortable to wear, making it perfect for Winter.

It is available in a variety of versatile colors such as denim marl, black watch, and light grey marl, to name a few. Our team carefully chose each color to ensure we had the best selection in this gorgeous Aran Wool cardigan.

The Irish cabling on this Aran sweater gives a slimming effect that is great for wearing with jeans or leggings. In addition, the ladder stitching between the cables signifies different stages in life, from being youthful and single-minded to more mature aspects.

The best part about this full-zip sweater? You can wear it all year long. Wear the hood up for extra warmth in Winter, or zip down to get some cool air when you're on a hot summer's day.
