Ulvang - Rav Sweater with Zip - Jumper

I have been eyeing the Rav jumper for a few months before I purchased it during a recent sales event. So far, I am not disappointed and very happy about the purchase.

Note: Consider to purchase a size smaller than usual, as the cut can be very roomy. I opted to go for a M with a chest size of 104-105 cm and it fits quite well/ slim.

I usually wear this jumper in a more casual and relaxed environment, particularly now during winter, but I shall test it out during longer hiking trips later on.

POSITIVES:
The jumper is quite comfortable. Being wool (not merino wool), there is an element of itchiness that is developing, but you can get used to it easily. The wool seems to get more itchy during aerobic exercises or walks, so you should wear a polyester baselayer below the wool jumper. The jumper keeps me warm and comfortable indoors and outdoors.

NEGATIVES:
None observed yet. However, there could be durability issues developing: I notice that during casual use the wool fibres slowly start to disintegrate on the sleeve cuffs. By all means after two months of usage this is very minor, but it could be a problem after continous, longer-term use. The stellar (blue)/ tomato cherry is actually grey-blue and not as 'blue' as shown in the photos.

Ordered my third Rav jumper as I was thrilled to see that they sell it outside of Scandinavia! Perfect as a second layer when cross country skiing/hiking or just to keep warm over the winter.
Had to buy one for my partner as well.

(Highly recommend to follow the washing instructions as I shrunk the first one)

My third Rav jumper, love the cut and look, does have a tendancy to shrink on washing, destroyed my first and had to pass on to my partner who still uses it for sailing. Watch out for price reductions great jumper

I have 3 of these Ulvang Rav Sweaters although not this colour combination (it is pretty gross). Warm, comfortable, excellent

As the seasons change and the temperatures drop a jumper like this really comes into its own. It’s super warm, fits really well and looks great too. I am going to be buying another very soon. Highly recommended.

Anyway I'm going to buy it again but black colour this time.

Looks and feels like a well made jumper. The jumper is lovely and warm. Only negative so far is that the neck of the jumper can feel a bit stiff when you folder over the zip part. But hopefully this will give the more I wear it. Would recommend the jumper.

I’m buying another one!

Looks great. Fits true to size. Keeps body warm.
Excellent for any hiking adventure or for an active life style.
True fabulous find.
