A lot of us love the look and feel of a wool jumper but worry they can’t handle the rough stuff. That’s fair enough, but when wool’s done right nothing could be further from the truth. After all, wool has kept sheep alive for thousands of years of wind, snow and rain.
The Cairnsman is proof of wool’s power: a hard-working jumper that’s soft on you.
Made in New Zealand the Swazi® Cairnsman wool jumper is a return to a classic era of natural yarns, enduring design and traditional craftsmanship.
This two-layered hooded jumper has a 100% New Zealand wool outer, while the inner lining is a soft and comfy mix of New Zealand wool, possum and nylon.
The hood is another piece of Swazi® magic, while the longer back covers your vitals as you bend to work. The leather label represents both the quality of New Zealand wool and the high standard of craft that have been merged to make The Cairnsman an iconic work and casual jersey.
If you're ordering from outside New Zealand, your country might add its own duties or customs fees when your Swazi gear arrives - These charges are out of our hands, so just be aware that you might need to pay them to collect your parcel. If you’re unsure, it’s worth checking with your local customs office first.

FUNCTION
Cold weather protection
Wool is one of the most effective natural forms of all-weather protection. It has a naturally high UV resistance, is flame retardant, and can regulate body temperature by absorbing and releasing moisture away from the body. Wool is ideal for year-round comfort, it is never too hot or never too cold. The fibres resilience ensures garments keep their easy care quality for years.

What is the Swazi Warranty?
All Swazi garments are unconditionally warranted against faulty fabric and workmanship. We reserve the right to repair or replace at our discretion. We have a specific page for more details on our warranty and repairs and returns policies here.
Will I have to pay customs on an international order?
International customers are solely responsible for payment of all duties, import taxes and customs fees.
These fees are not included in the cost of shipping and we are unable to provide estimates of what this will cost as it will depend entirely on the garment and what charges your own government imposes.
Please check with your local customs agent for more details.
