From Yorkshire To The Alps: Glencroft Highlights British Wool Nordic Knitwear For Ski Season

As ski season kicks off, the slopes (and après-ski lounges) are calling for kit that performs as well as it looks. Enter Glencroft’s “Saxon” duo — a 100% British wool Nordic-pattern jumper and matching beanie, knitted entirely in the UK and designed to balance heritage style with natural technical performance.

This isn’t your standard ski lodge knitwear. The Saxon Jumper is “thick, thick, thick,” says Glencroft — a double layer of British wool engineered to keep wind, snow and cold firmly at bay, while maintaining wool’s hallmark breathability. The navy and cream Nordic pattern delivers timeless mountain style that’s just as at home on the piste as it is in the chalet.

Paired with the Saxon Beanie, featuring the same geometric chevron pattern and colourway, this duo captures the best of both worlds: the authentic craftsmanship of British knitwear and the high-performance properties skiers and winter adventurers demand.

Because when the lift wind bites, you need more than a pretty pattern — you need warmth, breathability and effortless alpine style.

Glencroft was established in 1987 by Richard and Justina Sexton as a range of classic British countrywear made from natural fibres including British Wool, Harris Tweed and sheepskin.

Based in a 200 year old converted cow barn in Clapham in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, they take inspiration from the rural life and stunning scenery that surrounds them, from  Yorkshire style flat caps and warm chunky jumpers, to  100% British hand finished sheepskin rugs.
