This is the sleeveless waistcoat from the Inis Meáin collections, the company created by Tarlach de Blácam to combat desertification on his island off the coast of Ireland. This sleeveless cardigan with an officer-collar is an extremely versatile piece, featuring a sturdy two-way zip to adapt to different temperatures and activities. It is designed with lots of beautiful, refined details, including side-opening front pockets, stylish indented lines on the front and back, and a very original sleeve cut. The wool is dense and tightly knitted to keep out draughts, and is soft and non-itchy. It is made from premium cashmere and merino wool sourced from traditional Italian producer Filati Biagioli Modesto, which complies with the strictest European environmental standards by using only organic dyes. In a deep black, it is designed, manufactured and finished by hand in the Inis Meáin workshop - a true Aran of Aran chosen for our Hollington customers.
