Sizing Guide

Details:

The Moritz Women’s Cardigan takes one of Dale of Norway's most popular designs and adds the function and versatility of a full length 2-way zipper. Just like the original, it is crafted from 100% skin-soft merino wool. So it will regulate body temperature by offering exceptional warmth while remaining breathable, and it feels like luxury next to your skin. It has a clean, structured feminine silhouette that layers easily over a base layer and under an outer layer or jacket. Thanks to Dale of Norway's Comfort Knit technology, the sweater moves freely and remains flexible. The full-length 2-way zipper and medium high neck add style and functional versatility, so you wont get too hot, and you stay warm when it is cold. The iconic Nordic pattern (done in a grey/blue steel color with off white and navy) is carried over from the original Moritz sweater. It brings heritage and visual depth to this modern, performance-ready layer.

Design Notes:

Inspired by the legendary 2003 St. Moritz World Ski Championship sweater, the Moritz cardigan re-imagines a Dale of Norway classic in a contemporary full-zip design. Named after the iconic alpine destination, it blends sport, heritage, and sophistication—equally at home on the mountain or in the city. This is Norwegian knitwear at its most versatile and enduring.

History:

The Moritz design traces its roots to Dale of Norway’s 2003 St. Moritz World Ski Championship sweater and takes its name from the legendary Alpine resort town of St. Moritz, Switzerland. This cardigan carries that ski heritage forward in a versatile full-zip design, connecting Norwegian knitting tradition with the history and culture of European winter sport.
