Mens Heavyweight Merino Activewear Hooded Jumper

Paul James Knitwear

£180

Knitted Fine Wool Zip Through Jacket Our heavyweight (335g) merino hooded zipped jumper takes its name from Helios, Greek god of the sun. Made from pure Italian merino, we headed to Italy's oldest mills to source the finest yarns. With long sleeves and two functional front pockets, we added armhole perforations to optimise the merino's thermo-regulating, moisture-wicking properties and thumbholes for comfort on colder days. Designed to fit the pace of modern living, this breathable layer is ideal for crisp early morning runs or a comfortable base to wear heading to the gym after work. Product

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as PAUL JAMES KNITWEAR LIMITED, number 09683530. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
Stated by the company: "Since 1976, every piece in our Heritage Collection is designed, produced and packaged in Leicestershire, England." Source.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
British-owned
No majority shareholding traced outside the UK. Companies House.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
