Some treasures have travelled a long way before finding their next home. This vintage Amano Traders Pullover is one of those special pieces, carrying the spirit of a time when knitwear was bold, colourful and made to be treasured. π§Άπ
Amano began in 1988, when founders James and Michelle returned from South America with hand-knitted sweaters made by local craftspeople. What started with a little market stall in London grew into a knitwear brand working closely with skilled artisans in Ecuador. The Traders Pullover is part of Amano's archive, with the design dating back to 1993. Its relaxed, boxy silhouette is a lovely example of the brand's distinctive, expressive knitwear style.
This particular vintage piece has had quite a life of its own. It wasn't in the best condition when it found its way to us, so I've carefully mended several holes to give it another chance to be worn and loved. The repairs are part of its story, and the sweater is best suited to someone who appreciates well-loved vintage knitwear with a little history behind it ππͺ‘

π Vintage Size Guide
Sizing in vintage can sometimes feel like a mystery, thatβs why we carefully measure pieces. The key measurement? Pit to pit (armpit to armpit).
β‘οΈ Measure yourself (or your favorite sweater) pit to pit and compare:
- XS π± bust approx. 78β82 cm β pit to pit 39β41 cm
- S πΈ bust approx. 83β88 cm β pit to pit 42β44 cm
- M π bust approx. 89β96 cm β pit to pit 45β48 cm
- L πΏ bust approx. 97β104 cm β pit to pit 49β52 cm
- XL π² bust approx. 105β112 cm β pit to pit 53β56 cm
- XXL πΎ bust approx. 113β120 cm β pit to pit 57β60 cm
β¨ Tip: Keep the vibe of the garment in mind. A cozy spencer or chunky knit is meant to be worn a little oversized, while a blouse might look best when it fits more snugly.

How to keep your item in good condition
How to keep your item in good condition
Here's a little guide to keeping your item in the best condition after receiving it!
Always check the labels inside your items, most of the time it explains how to take care of your item
Wool & silk can be quite a challenge, but here's some tips from us:
- Handwash woollen or silk items with cold/luke warm water
- Some washingmachines have a wool/silk program, make sure to check if it's on a low temperature
- Don't put wool or silk items in the dryer, they prefer to just dry laying down on a clean towel
- If your woollen item is not very dirty, just place it outside for a bit. Cold temperatures and windy days are great for getting strange smells out of the item!
