INIS MEÁIN | STORM JACKET

Dens Knitted Fishermen's Jacket 

• 100% Merino 
• Double layers 
• Horn buttons
• Made in Ireland

This piece was inspired by jackets made for island weather, especially the harsh winter storms. A key feature is the extra layer of knit on the shoulders for warmth and protection when carrying curach (the island fishing craft) and other equipment. After each expedition the curach had to be hauled up and carried to safety in all weather, along with the gear and catch.
