"Black and cream white together look so clear and elegant - a pattern that never goes out of style."

"Chandol" Hand-knitted wool jacket from Nepal

The "Chandol" is carefully knitted by Nepalese craftswomen in Panauti, Banepa and Shakhu. Each jacket is traditionally handcrafted - stitch by stitch - and bears the distinctive signature of the talented women who have cultivated this craft for generations.

The model in the product photos is 170 cm tall and wears the jacket in size L - the jacket fits true to size to slightly large, ideal for cozy layered looks. The detailed size chart with all measurements can be found directly with the product images.

Material & Warmth

The robust Nepalese wool knit offers excellent protection against the cold, while the soft, dark inner collar provides pleasant warmth, high wearing comfort, wind-resistant properties and a balanced body climate. Perfect for autumn, winter and cold outdoor moments.

Design & Pattern

The "Chandol" combines deep black/dark grey with light cream white/light grey - a strong, clear contrast. The elaborately crafted jacquard/fair isle pattern extends over the front, back, sleeves and hood: dark stripes with recurring "eye" or circular ornaments meet light stripes with traditional geometric shapes. A pattern that combines tradition, style and structure - ideal for those looking for a special statement without bright colors.

Practical details

• Sturdy full-zip zipper for easy on and off
• Generous hood with high-closing inner collar
• Side pockets subtly integrated into the pattern
• Dimensionally stable cuffs & hem in black with fine wooden toggles as a traditional accent

Fair & Social

With every purchase, you support Nepalese knitters and their secure income, the preservation of valuable traditions, and fair, sustainable and conscious production. The "Chandol" is more than just a jacket - it stands for true craftsmanship, social responsibility and timeless quality, perfect for cold days and outdoor adventures.
