Filippo de Laurentiis is hailed not only as one of the finest knitwear manufacturers in the world, but also for their modern take on classic knitwear shapes. This sweater is a classic crewneck, but in a dense 8-gauge knit, giving it a nice heft and clean drape. Typically, a heavy sweater would be in a coarse, chunky wool, but this one is as smooth and refined as they come.
