UNIQ Clothing by Checkers has collaborated with South African textile manufacturer, Gerber & Co, to produce a limited-edition, 100% Merino wool men's jumper, just in time for Father's Day.
Wool sourced from the Gerber & Co family farm in Namaqualand was used to produce this exclusive product. Each piece combines strong and fine fibres to deliver the natural benefits of Merino wool - breathability, softness and durability.
Production took approximately four months, with every stage of the process completed within a 400 km radius from the farm, creating a highly traceable footprint and reducing transport-related carbon emissions.
"Through this partnership, UNIQ Clothing by Checkers is supporting local production and job creation within South Africa's textile sector, enabling us to continue supporting the families we work with."
- Stefan Gerber, Founder of Gerber & Co
