Details
Geilo combines the natural warmth and breathability of merino wool with flexible rib-knit construction for easy movement. Raglan sleeves keep the shoulders comfortable, while the quarter-zip medium-high neck lets you quickly adjust warmth and ventilation.
Its regular fit and lightweight knit make it an easy mid layer for skiing, outdoor adventures, travel, or everyday winter wear.
Design Notes
Black and Off White puts the traditional Norwegian pattern front and center. Repeating eight-petal roses travel along the sleeves, while a larger version of the motif frames the neck for a crisp, graphic finish.
The high-contrast palette feels unmistakably Nordic without looking overly traditional. It’s heritage knitwear with a sporty streak and enough versatility to escape the ski lodge.
History
Geilo is named after one of Norway’s renowned ski destinations, nestled in the mountain landscape of southern Norway. Its long connection to skiing and outdoor recreation makes it a fitting namesake for a sweater designed around warmth, movement, and life outside.
The eight-petal rose featured throughout the design is a familiar motif in Norwegian decorative knitting, connecting Geilo’s modern silhouette to Scandinavian textile tradition.
