What is the Ovik Round Neck Sweater?
As you may have guessed, the Ovik Round Neck Sweater is a knitted sweater with a round neckline. It's the ideal jumper for everyday, casual use, outdoor lifestyles, and even a spot of hiking or hill walking.
What is it made of?
It's made of traceable wool that feels super soft against the skin with G1000® reinforcement patches.
Fjallraven has sourced the wool ethically - it's completely traceable, all the way back to the beginning of its journey. This wool is also mulesing-free, ensuring no unethical mulesing operations were carried out on animals to produce the material.
The G1000® Eco patches reinforce the elbows, adding durability to the jumper and helping prolong its lifespan to last for years.
G1000® Eco is one of Fjallraven's cornerstone materials. It uses a blend of 65% recycled polyester and 35% cotton, which is lightweight, ventilating and hardwearing.
G1000® materials can be adapted to different personal preferences or climatic conditions using Greenland Wax. The wax allows you to customise the fabric's properties, such as wind and water resistance and breathability.
Greenland Wax is easy to apply - you can literally do it anywhere! If you'd like to learn more about how to apply it correctly, check out our short YouTube tutorial by clicking here.
What are its features?
As mentioned, this sweater has a flattering round neckline that looks great over a shirt. The cuffs and hem are ribbed and sit closer to the skin to retain heat. They have a slight stretch for added freedom of movement and comfort.
The wool material can wick away moisture if you're working up a sweat when running for the bus to work or carrying those heavy shopping bags in from the car. It continues to stay warm when damp, perfect for unpredictable UK weather when showers are often likely!
