Description

These British Army pull-overs (or woolly pully from back in the day) were originally designed in WWII and issued to the British SAS and Bomber Command. The design was so popular that iterations are still being manufactured in modern times, such as the ones we have here. Also known as a 'Commando Sweater' in North America. Though British speaking countries of the world generally stick to the use of 'jumper' or 'jersey'.

Worn by many military personnel from WWII up until the present day. Truly a timeless and popular design. They are a comfortable rib knit sweater with a snug, yet stretchy fit for good freedom of movement. Made from moisture wicking and warm wool. Durable poly/cotton reinforcements protect the elbows, forearms and shoulder areas that will add years of good hard use to the jumper.

Features:

  • Genuine British Army Jersey
  • Rib knit wool
  • Shoulder, elbow, and forearm reinforcements
  • Shoulder epaulettes
  • Stretchy fabric for ease of movement


Sizing: Snug fit, yet stretchy for freedom of movement.  Find your jersey size by measuring the circumference around your chest, just under the armpits. For more information, check out our sizing guide.

    Beautiful Used Condition

    Was notified size 136cm jumper was in stock. Lucky to order 2. I received 2 beautiful examples of British Army Issue wool jumper. They were better than I expected and I want to thank you because size 136cm is very hard to find.

    Size is not correct. Too much wear and tear, not even grade 2.

    Snug as a bug

    Just arrived! Jumper in excellent condition, no quibbles on that point.

    Talk about snug. I'm a 94cm chest - tall and slim- the 100cm jersey is super snug and form fitting to the point of not being able to wear much under it. Consider a couple of sizes larger if you like some room to move and want wear anything under it.

    The Not So Drab British Army Jersey

    Excellent! Starting looking for one when the realised they were available. I had an issued on in the Aussie Army, unfortunately it was taken back when the new 'better: high tech soft fleece was issued, what a disaster!

    Always loved wearing my issued one and the one I brought is just as nice to wear.

    Very warm. Also quite a fashion statement in Aus as so uncommon. Nice firm fitting, yet flexible knit.

    Try finding a high quality pure wool sweater for $60?

    I won't ever be handing this one in!
