WHY WE LOVE THE Big Lion Stripe Jumper I remember where I was standing age 13 when I heard my first Bob Marley album, the words of Get Up Stand Up were soon etched into my wooden desktop at school. My admiration for the Rastafarians, love of reggae music, and the cool outfits worn by Jimmy Cliff in 'The Harder They Come' have been an ongoing influence in my work. My whole life I've been buying bits of Red, Gold, and Green down Portobello Road and weaving them in wherever I can, to pay respect. Merino crew neck jumper with Lion motif and 'jah' intarsia on the sleeve. Ribbed neck, hem and cuffs. Model is size 8 wearing a size small, height 5"10.5. We recommend taking a size down for a more fitted style, or your regular size for an oversized fit. OUR MERINO WOOL Coming from the Merino breed of sheep, merino wool benefits from being extremely soft and feels beautiful against the skin. Merino wool has natural elasticity and is naturally breathable and odour resistant: its fibres wick moisture away from the body and help to regulate temperature so that the wearer feels comfortable in cool or warm weather. Bella Freud only uses Merino wool from ethically-farmed, non-mulesed sheep and the fibres are environmentally friendly whilst being incredibly durable, retaining their shape for years to come.
