The company started out producing 100% wool NATO sweaters that were sold on the local Sunday markets. Over the years, Commando Knitwear developed a reputation for selling hard wearing, functional sweaters which were used extensively by police forces and security firms around the world.

Knitwear for the great outdoors

As a family with a keen interest in outdoor pursuits, it seemed natural to develop a range of country sweaters, reflecting the traditions of country life and proving that hardwearing woollen clothes can also be stylish and attractive. Our success is based on using only the highest quality materials ? as 1000's of satisfied customers around the world can testify.

The Niffi and Woolyback ranges are suitable for men and women and some designs are also available in children's sizes.

In addition to a range of dyed shades, the ?Classic Outdoor Sweater? is available in natural undyed welsh mountain wool, utilising the beautiful colours and hues that are only produced by nature.

All knitwear is produced using 100% pure new wool with the exception of the workwear sweater. The country sweaters have real suede shoulder and elbow patches and are completely washable. The products are produced to Commando Knitwear's high quality standards and come with a satisfaction guarantee.

Launch of outdoorknitwear.com

Until now, Commando Knitwear's sweaters have mainly been sold through clothing outlets and specialist stores. This autumn, Commando Knitwear is proud to announce the launch of their new website Outdoor Knitwear (www.outdoorknitwear.com) enabling more people to see our British designed knitwear and buy securely online. The new website displays all colour choices and the option to customise some sweaters with our embroidery options. Shipping is free throughout the UK and we offer competitive rates of shipping to the rest of the world. Coming soon, a variety of clothing products and accessories designed to complement our knitwear.

Trevor Hall says ?our high quality knitwear has been consistently popular over the years. Whatever the current fashion trend, there is always a demand for traditional style knitwear ? sweaters which are warm, comfortable to wear and designed for active use?.
