Label Love: Dale of Norway

Dale of Norway have been making woolen products since 1879. Their classic cozy sweaters have been copied endlessly, but they're the original Norwegian wool sweater. Over the years they've wafted in and out of style but in my humble opinion have always been a staple of classic like Pendleton.

Their products are made by hand and they've been the official supplier of sweaters for the Norwegian ski team and the winter Olympics since 1956. In fact, each Olympic season a special sweater is made and are considered collectible.
