S.N.S. Herning

S. N. S. HERNING was founded in 1919 by the Dane, Søren Nielsen Skyt. He made a living from selling his knitted garments since his early youth - as did a lot of other young entrepreneurs of the time.The origin of their fisherman sweater traces back to English hand knitted sweaters. The hand knitters had been developing a technique for knitting so-called “bubbles”, providing unique isolating abilities. The knitted bubble was a way to solve the problem of how to achieve as much warmth for as little expenditure of yarn as possible. The knitted bubble creates a pocket of air - enhancing thermal characteristics without weighing you down.
