Recently while doing a new photo shoot for the website, we were teeming up different garments for different shots, and looking at how some things went so well together, and how modern the Aran Sweater and Grandfather Shirt could look despite their at times old fashioned image.

Aran Sweater, Grandfather Shirt, Jeans and Hanly Cap

With the beautiful Wicklow countryside in the background we wanted to show the versatility of the Aran, and how great it can look over a flannel grandfather shirt with a pair of jeans.

This Aran range is the new Carraig Donn Merino range, soft to the touch with warm earthy colours, it’s also a unisex garment stating in xsmall up to XXL.

The Grandfather Shirt has a very classic Irish look with the blue and white stripe, it buttons half way down the front, looks great under an Aran or a waistcoat and our model Stephen gives it a very fresh modern look.

The look is finished off with a woven cap by Hanly of Tipperary, made using 100% wool, in a great earthy brown to compliment the Aran.
