Expertly Made in Italy by a Family-Owned Mill

We partnered with a family-owned, fine Italian woolen mill that has been making sweaters for generations. With the grand Dolomites in their backyard, they know a thing or two about mountaineering sweaters.

From Matterhorn to the outpost on Illus, the Guide Sweater is the highest quality, premium, old school, technical mid-layer with timeless styling for those who value ruggedness and fine classic design.

Garbage

Terrible sweater, neck is crazy long. 250 for a sweater that I would not recommend.

FYI, the neck is designed that way so it can be folded over to create a turtleneck height, but also when fully extended is designed to cover the lower part of the face. The length is intentional. Also, your paid price was around $206 with your discount, NOT $250, so let's get your facts straight. Sorry champ, but the only 'garbage' here is your misinformed product knowledge and inaccurate facts.

Great Sweater

Phenomenal quality in every respect. It can be worn as casual or dress, even with the elbow and shoulder pads. I’m 6’3” with 36” sleeve length, 36” waist and 47” chest and the XL fits like it was tailored for me. I own high end merino sweaters and this one surpasses the others by far. Can’t wait for the black to be back in stock. MB.

High Quality, super impressed

I didn’t know what to expect but I’m super impressed by the Guide Sweater. Medium was almost too small for me but I’m making it work. Quality is superb. It came in handy during the deep freeze. The tall collar zipped up around the neck was clutch for keeping out the biting cold! BRAVO!

Buy once and cry once. This thing is amazing. Shocked by how comfortable it is as well as the degree of movement it permits. Bombproof
