Andersen-Andersen

Since 2008 ANDERSEN-ANDERSEN, founded by Cathrine Lundgren-Andersen and Peter Kjær Andersen, make sweaters with clear roots in Scandinavian maritime culture, that surpasses fashion and lasts for many years while aging beautifully. The story starts when the couple comes across an old Danish Navy sweater in a second-hand shop and is struck by the durability and the wear it has endured over the years. Even though the sweater was worn thin, there was no pilling only a smooth-worn surface on the wool. Peter and Cathrine rediscovered a quality of wool and craftsmanship that was no longer available. Inspired by this tradition, ANDERSEN-ANDERSEN decided to bring this type of sailor knitwear back to life.
