Details:
Rooted in tradition and designed for today, the Lusa Men's Sweater blends heritage craftsmanship with effortless, contemporary style. The relaxed T-sleeve silhouette along with the structural characteristics of the knit make this piece both comfortable and sophisticated — perfect for everyday wear with a meaningful story behind it.
Inspired by the classic, hand-knit pullovers worn by Norwegian fishermen in the 19th and early 20th centuries, the Lusa sweater is a nod to resilience, functionality, and timeless design. It’s expertly crafted from authentic Norwegian wool, known for its durability, warmth, and breathability — ideal for cool-weather layering.
Though knitted in a single solid tone, the Lusa stands out with a rich, textured detail that showcases Dale of Norway's artisan craftsmanship. Inspired by the iconic hand-knitted sweaters worn by 19th-century fishermen, the Lusa men's sweater pays tribute to timeless tradition and durability. The choice to use just one classic color highlights the texture and intricate heritage-inspired details. Featuring elements of the historic "Setesdal" pattern, this cardigan is a true nod to the past, with a modern twist.
Design Notes:
The name Lusa is derived from the Norwegian word “lusemønster,” meaning lice pattern, famously featured in the traditional lusekofta (or Setesdal sweaters). These garments are adorned with the iconic lice pattern, a hallmark of Norwegian knitwear.
