It is the high-neck sibling of the 100 jumper: the same 100% acrylic rib knit in gauge 7, the same anti-pilling treatment and the same shoulder and elbow reinforcements. What changes is the neck: here it is high with a half zip, which is what really covers the neck when it is cold and also lets you ventilate by opening it a few centimetres.
✅ Features
High neck with half zip: keeps the neck warm and ventilates without taking the garment off.

Fabric reinforcements on the shoulders and elbows, the areas where a work jumper wears through.

💡 Tip: Choosing between the crew-neck 100 and this high-neck 101 depends on whether the jumper is worn on its own or under another garment. The high neck is much better outdoors, but it bulks up under a jacket collar and can be uncomfortable if a closed gilet is worn on top. For indoor use or as a mid layer, the crew-neck 100 is more practical. And always close the zip before washing: if it snags, it unravels gauge 7 knit in a single cycle.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference from the 100 jumper?
Only the neck: the 100 has a crew neck and this one has a high neck with a half zip. Fabric and reinforcements are identical.
Which one is best?
The high neck for outdoors. If the jumper is worn under a jacket or a closed gilet, the high neck adds bulk and the 100 is more comfortable.
Why does it have reinforcements?
Because the shoulders and elbows are where a work jumper wears through.
How should it be dried?
Flat. Damp acrylic stretches if hung on a hanger.
Should the zip be closed when washing?
Yes. If it snags, it unravels gauge 7 knit in a single cycle.
Can it go in the tumble dryer?
No.
What colours is it available in?
Black, navy blue, hunter green and grey, in sizes S to 3XL.
