MGK Note
Denim & Supply Ralph Lauren built its identity around rugged Americana, vintage workwear, military influences, and handcrafted-looking textiles. This 2011 Aran-Knit Cardigan represents the more traditional side of that universe, borrowing from the centuries-old visual language of Irish fishermen’s knitwear while using Italian yarn for a more refined finish. With Denim & Supply now discontinued, well-preserved early pieces like this cardigan have become particularly interesting additions to a Ralph Lauren archive.
