Product Overview
The Brook Taverner Oslo Rollneck Jumper represents a sophisticated addition to a professional wardrobe, blending the traditional elegance of a rollneck silhouette with the practical demands of modern workwear. Engineered for the discerning professional, this garment provides a sleek, streamlined appearance that bridges the gap between formal tailoring and casual office attire. By utilizing a balanced blend of natural fibres, this jumper offers a refined aesthetic without sacrificing the comfort required for a full day of wear.
Key Features
- Merino Wool and Cotton Blend: Combining the temperature-regulating properties of Merino wool with the soft, breathable nature of cotton ensures comfort across varying climates.
- Machine Washable: Unlike traditional woollen garments that require specialist cleaning, this jumper is designed for easy maintenance in domestic machines.
- Ribbed Neck, Cuffs, and Hem: These reinforced sections provide structural integrity, ensuring the garment retains its shape and fits securely throughout the day.
- Versatile Rollneck Design: Offers a polished, professional look that functions effectively as a standalone piece or as a base layer under a jacket.
Design & Performance
The performance of the Oslo jumper is rooted in its 50% Merino wool and 50% cotton composition. This mid-weight fabric provides excellent thermal efficiency; the Merino fibres naturally wick moisture and regulate body heat, while the cotton component adds necessary durability and a soft hand-feel. The result is a garment that feels substantial yet breathable. The ribbed detailing at the neck, cuffs, and hem is not merely decorative; it serves to prevent the knit from stretching out of shape, ensuring that the professional silhouette remains intact even after repeated wear and laundering.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This jumper is an excellent candidate for custom branding. For a truly professional and authoritative appearance, we recommend embroidery. Our Telford-based team can apply intricate logos or staff names directly onto the knit, providing a long-lasting and premium finish that complements the texture of the wool blend. For larger, more vibrant branding requirements, print options are also available, though the textured nature of the knit makes embroidery the preferred choice for a classic corporate look. Since 1976, we have managed all customisation in-house to ensure the highest standards of quality control.
Use Cases
The Oslo Rollneck Jumper is ideally suited for front-of-house staff, corporate office environments, and hospitality sectors where a smart-casual uniform is required. Its clean lines make it a popular choice for management teams and client-facing roles where a tie may be too formal but a standard sweatshirt is insufficient. It is particularly effective for outdoor events or cooler office spaces where maintaining a professional appearance while staying warm is a priority.

Practical Advice
To achieve the best fit, we recommend considering the layering intended for this garment. If you plan to wear it over a shirt, you may prefer a slightly more generous size, whereas wearing it as a primary layer allows for a more tailored, slim-fitting look. The rollneck design provides additional warmth, making it a perfect substitute for a scarf in transitional weather.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the integrity of the Merino and cotton fibres is essential for the longevity of the garment. While this jumper is machine washable, we recommend using a gentle cycle to prevent unnecessary agitation of the natural wool fibres, which can lead to pilling or loss of shape over time.
Avoid the use of harsh bleaching agents, as these will break down the natural protein structures in the Merino wool, causing the fabric to become brittle and lose its soft texture. To ensure your custom embroidery or print remains in peak condition, we suggest air drying the garment rather than using a tumble dryer, as high heat can distort the knit and affect the tension of the branding threads.
