Gran Sasso Buttoned Mock Neck Sweater Brown

A brown mock neck sweater from Gran Sasso with a short button placket at the neck. The buttons add a refined, slightly sporty detail and let you wear the collar open or closed, while long sleeves and ribbed cuffs and hem keep the line neat.

It is knitted from pure wool, which gives natural warmth and elasticity and lets the sweater keep its shape through the day. Gran Sasso is a family-run knitwear house founded in Abruzzo in 1952, and it still makes its sweaters in Italy. This is the same buttoned mock neck model the brand makes in taupe and navy, here in a deep, warm brown.

Take your usual Italian size; it comes in 44 to 56. Wear it under a navy or grey blazer instead of a shirt and tie, or with beige chinos or dark denim and a soft suede jacket at the weekend. Brown pairs beautifully with cream, navy, olive and camel.
