A lot of casual knitwear falls into one of two traps: it looks great but feels scratchy and stiff, or it's soft but has no real shape or presence. The Nostalgic Sweater avoids both. Outerknown took an iconic '70s silhouette and crafted it in 100% organic cotton waffle knit – a construction that gives the piece real texture and visual interest while keeping the hand-feel genuinely soft against the skin. The fit is relaxed without being oversized, with a sophisticated finish that works as well with tailored trousers as it does with jeans and trainers. It's the sweater that pays homage to the golden age of board sports without being limited to a coastal context – the kind of piece that earns its place in the everyday rotation rather than sitting in a drawer waiting for the one week a year you get down to Cornwall. Crafted from 100% organic cotton, it breathes well across seasons and washes beautifully.

Born from the sea and shaped by the belief that clothes should outlast seasons, Outerknown makes everyday essentials for people who actually live in them. Co-founded by eleven-time world surfing champion Kelly Slater, the brand has been quietly rethinking what ‘responsible fashion’ looks like since day one – not as a marketing badge, but as a structural commitment woven into every seam.
95% of the AW26 collection is made with organic, Regenerative Organic Certified, recycled, or regenerated fibres. Candiani Mills denim from Italy. Manteco’s recycled wool processed in the same country. Regenerative Organic Certified cotton grown and harvested with the soil, the farmers, and the future in mind. These aren’t marginal improvements – they’re the standard. And the clothes themselves? The kind that feel so good you reach for them over and over, season after season.
From the legendary Blanket Shirt – often imitated, never duplicated – to the Hightide sweats that feel softer than your favourite towel, and SEA Jeans cut from heavyweight organic cotton denim, Outerknown makes wardrobe anchors, not filler. Versatile enough for the water’s edge in the morning and a dinner table by evening, the pieces ship to your door ready to become staples.
