⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"Though I have tried multiple knitwear brands before, nothing comes close material and construction quality wise. It's a very smart piece as well, easy to dress up and down. In addition, the cut is very flattering - not too tight at the hip."

Fibre innovation trough 120 years of experience
The secret behind the Jens merino cardigan's performance is the merino yarn, expertly spun by the renowned Italian mill, Tollegno 1900. With their century-plus history, they deliver a yarn that represents the ultimate fusion of traditional mastery and modern textile innovation.
Cutting edge merino technology
It all begins with 100% extrafine merino wool, ensuring a luxurious feel that is incredibly soft and never itchy. To make care effortless, we remove the wool’s microscopic scales, guaranteeing it won't shrink in your washing machine. Finally, a high-twist spinning technique compacts the yarn, making it more durable and highly resistant to pilling.
Supreme Comfort.
While substantial, the full-cardigan knit provides flexibility. Plus, a durable Half-Milano structure at the elbows prevents pilling, ensuring this practical piece stays stylish for longer.
Knitted in Portugal
Knitting is an art form requiring true skill. That’s why our sweaters are meticulously crafted by a specialist in knitwear, located in the Braga region of Northern Portugal. Simply holding one of our sweaters will allow you to instantly feel the expertise and deep attention to detail woven into every thread.
Merino wool offers superior comfort.
Merino wools natural structure works like high-tech gear: regulating body temperature, wicking away moisture, and resisting odors and wrinkles even after repeated wear. These are just a few of merino’s standout benefits.
FAQ- Merino wool full zip cardigan for men
Will this cardigan be too warm?
Not at all. Because it is crafted from 100% superfine merino wool, it naturally regulates your body temperature. Merino fibers are exceptionally breathable, allowing heat and vapor to escape so you stay comfortably warm without overheating or sweating. Unlike cheaper wool blends loaded with polyester and synthetics, it will never trap moisture or suffocate your skin.
Is the merino wool ethically and sustainably sourced?
Yes. The merino wool is 100% mulesing-free and OEKO-TEX certified, ensuring both animal welfare and safe processing free of harmful chemicals. Additionally, the garment is knitted "fully fashioned" in Europe, shaping each panel directly on the machine to eliminate fabric cut-off waste.
Can I wash this Wolk merino wool cardigan?
Forget about heavy handwash or going to the dry cleaners. Wolk wool sweaters can be washed in the machine. Thanks to Total Easy Care yarn treatment, it is machine washable.
- Wash on a gentle wool/delicates cycle at 30°C (up to 1,200 RPM spin) using a dedicated wool detergent.
- Turn inside out and use a wash bag to protect the knit and the metal YKK zipper.
- Lay flat to dry; do not tumble dry.
- Tip: Because pure merino wool naturally resists odors and bacteria, simply airing it out overnight between wears is usually all it takes to refresh it.
Will this sweater itch against bare skin?
No. Unlike traditional coarse wool, the Viggo uses superfine 18.5-micron merino fibers that bend softly against the skin instead of pricking. It is completely itch-free, ultra-soft, and comfortable to wear over a short-sleeved tee or directly against sensitive skin.
How does the sizing and fit run?
The Viggo features a tailored, flattering cut designed to drape cleanly without clinging at the hips. If you already wear Wolk shirts or knitwear, choose your standard size. If you plan to wear it primarily as an outer layer over thick shirts or hoodies, consider sizing up for a slightly roomier fit.
Is this sweater worth the investment?
Yes. Unlike fast-fashion knitwear cut from blended synthetics that pill and lose shape after a few washes, the Viggo is engineered for longevity, sustainability, and unmatched cost-per-wear value.
It is crafted in Europe under strict ecological and labor standards using 100% mulesing-free certified merino wool spun by Tollegno in Italy. With over 1.2 kg of pure wool, fully fashioned zero-waste knitting, reinforced elbow panels, and a robust YKK zipper, you are investing in an enduring wardrobe staple that resists odors and requires minimal washing. You can wear it continuously as both a tailored indoor sweater and an outdoor jacket across seasons.
