Wanted - navy fisherman's jumper with buttons - any links?

[SarfE4sticated]

Hi everyone! I have been (for years) trying to find a decent navy jumper. It needs to be machine washable, but wool, with buttons on the shoulder.
I have bought many over the years that have bobbled, been too short, or just been disappointing, so I am willing to pay up to £100.
Can you help?
thanks in advance

Try Toast? They are pricey but have good sales.

Thanks Lemon - I like toast but they’re always hand wash ☹️

Is that not always the way with wool? I get round that by pretty much never washing my heavier wool jumpers. 😬 They never seem to get smelly, and if they pick up food smells I just air them out for a bit.

That's pretty .... gross, sorry.
Wool is almost always handwash though or super delicate machine wash. Otherwise it shrinks.

I’m happy to use wool wash cycle but not actually hand wash. I’m far too messy to not wash jumpers I’m afraid!

I put mine on the hand wash cycle in the machine! Cold setting. Dry flat!

Armorlux and St James are the big names in French fishermens' jumpers. Both are sold in the UK, but perhaps more on the coast.

Agree that a really lovely, expensive wool jumper will always be handwash only.
Breton jumper seems to be the thing....

For an easy care alternative would this be of interest...?

I think Me&Em have one in the sale... very good quality and machine wash...

I order from Armor Lux online but the shipping isn't cheap!

looking at them, I think I could actually cope with a cotton version. Uniqlo has a nice www.uniqlo.com/uk/en/product/women-ines-fisherman-boat-neck-jumper-417421COL69SMA004000.html?LGWCODE=417421COL69SMA004000;136477;6475&utm_source=Google&utm_term=&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=shopping&gclid=CjwKCAjwm-fkBRBBEiwA966fZLcp8M1L6Y3oIkLgtVop29tul6Wz5ufvJXLuwkvNRSfW1b_kWF3-xxoCkCIQAvD_BwE - INES FISHERMAN BOAT NECK JUMPER

You could try woolly pullys for a naval style
