It's a simple, smart style that works equally well for everyday wear, weekends, travel or a more polished casual look.

Proudly made in New Zealand, it's crafted from a premium blend of 40% Possum Fibre, 50% Merino Wool and 10% Nylon.

Why Choose Possum Merino?

Possum fibre has a naturally hollow structure, which helps trap body heat while keeping the fibre remarkably lightweight. When blended with fine Merino Wool, the result is a luxurious natural fibre combination renowned for its exceptional warmth, softness and comfort.

Merino Wool adds breathability and helps regulate temperature, while the nylon in the blend improves durability and helps the garment retain its shape.

This combination allows Possum Merino garments to provide impressive warmth without the bulk of heavier winter knitwear.

And About Those Polar Bears...

Possum fibre's hollow structure is one of the reasons it is such an effective natural insulator. In fact, possums and polar bears are two familiar examples of animals with hollow or insulating fur structures.

Now when was the last time you saw a polar bear shiver?

We think that's a rather good way of remembering just how effective natural insulation can be!

Adjustable Style for Changing Weather

One of the best features of this jumper is the ¼-zip collar.

On a cold day, simply zip it higher to help keep your neck warm. When the temperature rises or you're indoors, lower the zip and wear it as a relaxed collar.

It's a small design detail that makes this jumper particularly practical for New Zealand's changeable weather.

Our Favourite Thing About This Jumper

The ¼-zip collar is what really sets this jumper apart. It gives you the warmth of a high collar when you need it, but can be opened up for a more relaxed look when you don't. Combined with the broad rib texture, it gives this classic jumper plenty of character.

A Genuine New Zealand-Made Gift

The Possum Merino ¼ Zip Rib Jumper #9808 makes an excellent gift for someone who appreciates quality natural fibres and genuine New Zealand-made clothing.

It's also a particularly good choice for sending overseas, where the exceptional warmth-to-weight ratio of Possum Merino can be especially appreciated during colder winters.
