1970s | Pendleton | Virgin Wool Crewneck Jumper | Made in USA | Black, Blue & Purple Pattern – L/XL

Description:

Item: Heavy Pendleton virgin wool crewneck jumper in a deep black base with woven blue and subtle purple patterned striping throughout. Dense, structured knit with ribbed collar, cuffs and hem, giving the piece real weight and warmth. Classic American outdoor silhouette, designed as functional cold-weather knitwear rather than lightweight fashion, with strong visual texture and period-correct colourwork.

Era: 1970s

Brand: Pendleton

Condition: Good vintage condition. Wool remains thick, warm and structurally sound with light surface wear consistent with age and genuine use. No holes or thinning noted, and the knit retains its shape and integrity. Honest wear that adds depth without affecting wearability.

Provenance Note:
This is proper American-made Pendleton from a time when their knitwear was built to endure real outdoor use. These jumpers were worn hard, layered heavily and relied upon for warmth, not preserved as collectibles. The patterned designs weren’t decorative trends, they were part of a functional tradition of rugged, expressive knitwear. What makes pieces like this desirable now is that they still carry that purpose, a garment shaped by durability first, with character earned through time rather than styling.

Condition Notes:

Please be aware. All our true vintage items come with a story, and we cannot guarantee any item will be totally free of marks / damage but anything we think of note will be mentioned. Furthermore, a lot of vintage items gain character because of wear and tear. Buying a true vintage item is not the same as buying new and is not to be confused with second-hand clothing.

We have also tried to accurately depict each garment using a photography setup with over 90% true to life accuracy. 

We do not take photos of inside the garment.
