All men should have a few classics in their wardrobe. This superb College Stripe Scarf is craftsman-made in Hawick, Scotland from 100% Extrafine Lambswool, using wool dyed and spun in the UK. Our college scarf is a minimalist’s delight, a simple rectangular shape with no tassels, yet still manages to look rather dapper and dandified. The Great and British Knitwear Lambswool Striped College Scarf is impeccably made and hand finished. It’s also generously proportioned, at a slim 8 inches wide by 71 inches long. Although the vertical stripe scarf was a creation borne in Britain of necessity in WWII (mixed strips of color woven material being cheaper than solid knits), it was swiftly adopted by schools and subsequently by graduates. The college scarf finally found it’s fashion feet in the 1960s with the beatniks and later, the British mod movement. Now, it’s a staple of all well-dressed men – shouldn’t you be wearing one?
