This classic men's sweater is inspired by a late-19th-century style worn by English Rangers, who patrolled the royal forests and deer parks against poachers. The U.S. National Park Service Ranger corps was founded in the same tradition. Made using naturally water-resistant Welsh wool; it boasts calfskin patches to reinforce the elbows and shoulders.
Hi quality construction and very attractive. I purchased the natural color. Only one knock is some of the wool fibers start coming loose.

This was a gift to my husband who has received many compliments when wearing it. It was received promptly and in excellent condition. I just may buy one for myself!

Beautifully made, excellent value, but runs large .. I am 5' 10" tall, 175 #, 43" chest and 35 1/2" shirt sleeve length .. what would be called a standard American male large .. the large is big enough to swim a few laps in .. chest must measure 56" around beneath the armpits and the sleeves come all the way down to the ends of my finders and the sweater bottom reaches the crotch of myblue jeans .. returned it for a medium .. ..

I am 5' 10" tall, 175 #, 43" chest, 35" sleeve .. typical fit American male large .. many British products these days have slim fit mania and run to a tailored fit, so I ordered both the L and XL, figuring one of them would fit .. the XL was like a tent and even the L was too big, with sagging extra material all around the mid section, shoulders too wide, and slee3ves too long, even for a sweater made for layering .. so I now have a medium on order and suspect it will fit perfectly .. it does run large, but is superbly made and well worth the $$ .. calfskin patches are a very nice touch and the wool is tightly woven and quite substantial in weight .. expertly made overall.
