Siemer, made in Germany. The piece features a suede-style leather front panel paired with a full knitted body including sleeves, collar, cuffs and hem. Finished with a button front and a relaxed slightly boxy late-1970s to early-1980s cut, designed to sit neatly at the waist. The simple leather panel front gives the cardigan the look of a lightweight jacket while retaining the comfort of knitwear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"641\" data-end=\"663\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"641\" data-end=\"649\"\u003eEra:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"649\" data-end=\"652\"\u003e1970s–1980s\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"665\" data-end=\"705\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"665\" data-end=\"675\"\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"675\" data-end=\"678\"\u003eJ.

German makers in particular produced high-quality versions that blended traditional knitwear construction with suede or leather panels to create practical everyday jackets. Pieces like this sit nicely in that crossover period, carrying the relaxed feel of 70s styling with the cleaner, more pared-back look that continued into the early 80s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMeasurements:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSize on garment: N\/A\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOur modern sizing estimate: L                                                                                                        \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eShoulder to shoulder: 20\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePit to pit: 22\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInner sleeve to cuff: 18\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnder collar to lower back: 24\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCondition Notes:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease be aware. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAll our true vintage items come with a history, and minor signs of age, wear, or character should be expected.
