The old-school cable knit design of The Orr Sweater makes it a wardrobe mainstay when temperatures take a nosedive, and chunky, double ribbing along the cuffs, neck, and hem complete the classic look. This time around, we’ve opted for 100% merino wool for a soft, richly textured hand that gets better with age.
The Orr Sweater is built with 100% merino wool certified by the Responsible Wool Standard (RWS), so in addition to it regulating temperature, resisting odors, and being surprisingly sturdy despite its soft, luxurious texture, it’s also a far sight lighter on the environment than conventional merino.
If you're ordering for the first time with us and you're from the UK, we strongly recommend you read the below information so you know what to expect.
Please note that if you refuse delivery of your shipment, this will incur a significant cost for us to get the package back, and we will deduct this cost from any eventual refund we make to you.
Nobody wants this of course, so please do take a moment to read this.
Here's everything you need to know about ordering from us from the UK:
WHERE WE SHIP FROM
We are based in Italy - which means we are shipping to you from the EU into the UK.
PRICES, VAT and DUTIES
The prices you see on our website will usually shown to you in UK Sterling - and these prices are all shown INCLUSIVE OF VAT.
This is the important part - VAT is always paid on orders - either we charge and collect it, or the delivery company does - it's decided by the value of your order.
If your order is UNDER £135, then VAT remains on your order at checkout as we collect it on behalf of HMRC.
If your order value is OVER £135, then once you get to the checkout page, VAT will be TAKEN OFF - and prior to delivery, the delivery company will contact you asking for payment of this VAT, as well as an additional customs handling fee which is usually around £13.
IMPORTANT - This 'threshold value of £135 has nothing to do with tariffs or import duties - you should not be charged import duties - the threshold just decided who collects the VAT.
REFUSING DELIVERY
We get that Brexit has made everyone's life more complicated, however this information here is intended so you know exactly what to expect BEFORE you place an order. However if you refuse delivery, this will incur a significant cost for us to get the package back - and this cost will be deducted from any eventual refund we make to you.

VAT REFUNDS FOR RETURNS
If you need to return your order to us, we partner with a company that can handle your request to get a refund on the VAT you paid. They take a small commission, but so far our UK customers are very satisfied with this service. We have a special online portal that you can use, and once you receive your refund from us, they'll do the work for you.
