There’s no denying that the man has style. And for us, the casual, long-haired Weller of 2022… the jeans and jumper model oozes the timelessness of the music that is our lifeblood. So it’s brilliant that Paul has come up with a classic jumper design for John Simons that has won our hearts with its instant appeal.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

When I spoke with Paul earlier this afternoon about why he designed this jumper, which went on sale today at 12pm, he half-jokingly answered, “I never had one at the time, but I remember seeing people wear \u2019em around 1971\/72 and I always wanted one. So now I have.”<\/p>\n

Whilst there are contemporary Nordic knits that cost three or four times the reasonable \u00a3159 price tag of this jumper, none are quite right. This Weller design totally captures that \u201970s feel, and is a design that, like all good ones, crosses class and boundaries. Hippy-types, such as members of Mighty Baby, wore such styles, as did suedeheads, and of course your upper class outdoors type. My brown one will be matched with Levi’s and Moccasins or Spring Courts for a subtle, yet perfect, early \u201970s vibe.<\/p>\n
