The Edwardian Cycling Sweater

We’ve worked hard to get our Edwardian Cycling Sweater as true to a specific 1890s museum piece as possible without compromising on the voluminous leg-of-mutton sleeves. A silhouette that was back in fashion in the 1930's, and then again in the 1980s, and is now trending again! In conclusion, this sweater is a true fashion statement, able to pick up vibes from multiple decades of style. It's now up to you to style it for the day!

In its day, this type of garment was classified as casual wear or active wear, often worn for bicycling or hiking.
The overall rib knit gives this sweater its flattering hourglass shaped silhouette and makes it so warm and dense it could easily be worn as outerwear in climates milder than our Scandinavian. In addition to the very voluminous leg-of-mutton sleeves with cuffed hems, the sweater also sports a turtleneck collar with buttoning in both sides continuing along the shoulders. You only have to open one side to get into the sweater –but it can be nice to have the option of opening both sides to accommodate a really big Gibson girl hair-do!
