Devold Sørisen 100% Wool Crew Neck Sweater - Modern Norwegian Preppy Heritage Knitwear
The Devold Sørisen is a refined reinterpretation of the legendary Nordsjø sweater—a Norwegian design icon that became the blueprint for L.L. Bean's signature preppy sweater. This updated version honours the classic aesthetic that defined American preppy fashion from the 1950s onward, combining Scandinavian heritage with contemporary minimalism.
Modern Updates to a Classic Design While the original Nordsjø featured heavier gauge knitting for coastal workwear, the Sørisen offers three key improvements: lighter weight construction for year-round versatility and comfortable layering, softer hand feel from refined wool processing that's comfortable against skin, and a minimalist aesthetic with muted colour ways and increased chevron pattern spacing for a cleaner, contemporary look.
100% Pure New Wool Construction Natural wool provides temperature regulation, moisture-wicking that keeps you dry, odour resistance requiring less frequent washing, breathability preventing overheating, and durability that improves with age.
Design Features
- Classic crew neck: Versatile round neckline for layering over shirts or t-shirts
- Two-colour flat-knit: Smooth surface with signature chevron check pattern
- Ribbed cuffs and hem: Maintains shape and seals in warmth
- Balanced pattern spacing: Neither too busy nor sparse—modern minimalist proportions
When and Where to Wear It Perfect for casual offices, coffee meetings, weekend errands, travel (lightweight and packable), and layering under blazers or field jackets. Temperature range: 10°C to 18°C (50°F to 64°F) standalone, or layered down to 5°C (41°F). Ideal for spring and autumn transitional seasons.
Preppy Heritage Styling Pair with Oxford shirts and chinos for classic prep, layer under jackets, wear with jeans and white sneakers for modern casual, or combine with corduroy trousers for autumn weekends. The muted colours coordinate easily with navy, khaki, white, grey, and earth tones.
Care and Sizing Hand wash or wool cycle (30°C/86°F), air between wears, dry flat. Regular fit accommodates a shirt underneath while maintaining clean lines—not oversized like workwear, but roomier than slim-fit styles. Consult Devold Originals size chart.

Devold Size Guide
The size guide indicates what body measurements will fit the garments as they are planned to be worn. Individually one may choose a smaller size for a tighter fit or a bigger size for a loose fit. Devold underwear and accessories are generally made in elastic materials, mid-layers in more stable qualities. The garment measures will differ according to the elasticity in each quality and intended fitting - the size guide refers to body measurement for correct fit.
A few precautions
- When bust/chest measures indicate different size than height, follow the bust measurement
- When hip and waist indicate different sizes, follow the hip measurement
- When height indicate two sizes more than width measure, we recommend to chose the size in between.
