This style remains true to the original WWII era Jumpers worn by the British Royal Navy, featuring a drop shoulder fit, deep ribbed waist and cuffs, constructed in a 5 gauge knit with the same 100% British wool. Visit our N.S.C History page to learn more about the Submariner. Available in Navy, Ecru, Black, Corvette Blue, Heather Green, Rust, Orange, Sky Blue, Mid Grey. N.S.C. 100% cotton drawstring bag delivered free with your order. Compared with the Convoy, The Submariner is the same in all ways apart from the Convoy has the fully fashioned 'inset sleeve' where The Submariner has the drop shoulder. Compared with the Diver roll neck, the Submariner is a less chunky knit and has the drop shoulder fit instead of the inset shoulder fit. Visit our postage and returns page for delivery information. The Submariner is the only N.S.C. jumper to feature a drop shoulder where the shoulder seam sits on the upper arm creating a slightly more generous fit. We recommend ‘The Diver’ if you are looking for a chunkier knit roll neck with a closer fitting inset sleeve. If you are unsure of your N.S.C. size, take a measurement around your chest at your underarm, in inches, with a soft tape measure. Our knitwear fits true to size. If you prefer a loose fit, we suggest you order a size up. Refer to the size guide for further measurements. Available in sizes 34” - 50” (EURO 44 - 60) Model with a 38 inch chest wears size 38” Please feel free to get in touch if you have any queries regarding style, fit or sizing. N.S.C. products are designed to last for years, when cared for correctly. In the first instance, we recommend airing your knitwear outside. Remove small stains with a cloth and cool water. Piling can be removed with a wool shaver. When a wash is necessary we suggest hand washing. Hand Wash Mix a wool specific detergent with lukewarm water and swirl the garment delicately in the water. To dry, lay the garment on a flat surface and gently squeeze excess water from the wool with a towel. Do not twist or wring out a jumper. Stretch it gently to the correct size and shape before letting it air-dry laid flat. Softener can be added just before the final rinse if desired. Machine Wash Although not recommended, if a machine wash is necessary, knitwear can be washed using a wool specific detergent on a cold wool cycle with a low spin. Never tumble dry.
