Hi everyone. I hope I find you all well. So as the temperatures turn increasingly cooler, I’m continuing my fall/winter warmer series and this week it’s all about the guys. At The Irish Store, we offer a great selection of Aran knitwear for him. There’s nothing like a beautifully crafted Aran sweater or Aran cardigan to ward off the winter chills in style so I’ve selected 5 key pieces for him for the season ahead. I also had a little help from our loyal customers. The following are all 5-star favorites!
Lulu’s Top 5 Aran Knitwear for Him
1. The Sherkin Aran Sweater
So first on the list is a beautiful sweater that you’ll only find at The Irish Store! The Sherkin Aran sweater forms part of our exclusive Inishmore Collection. Our design features exquisitely detailed diamond and cable stitches. The diamond was believed to represent the patchwork Aran Island fields and was believed to wish the wearer good fortune and plenty while the cable stitch symbolizes the islander fisherman’s ropes. This classic design is crafted from beautifully soft merino wool. Choose smart navy, classic cream or charcoal shades.
2. The Dunmore Aran Sweater
Next on my countdown of Aran knitwear for him is the divine Dunmore Aran sweater. Lucky honeycomb stitch provides the main body design here. What really sets it apart though is the stylish zip collar with a soft tan leather zip pull. The yarn is 100 % merino and it comes in a gorgeous army green or smart versatile navy.

Our next offering shares its name with the stunning Giant’s Causeway in County Antrim. This gorgeous Aran cardigan for him combines all the timeless beauty of traditional Irish craftsmanship with modern styling.
