Frequently asked questions

What styles of country jumpers and hoodies does Allingtons stock?

Allingtons stocks a broad mix, from Ritemate Pilbara fleece pullovers and relaxed Ringers Western hoodies to classic wool knits. For wool lovers, there’s MKM knitwear, Swanndri wool jumpers, and merino knits from R.M.Williams and Thomas Cook. You'll also find crew sweatshirts from R.M.Williams, Bullzye and Pure Western, alongside knitwear from Native World and comfortable hoodies from Thomas Cook and Pure Western. Ringers Western's signature hoodies round out the range with bold country branding.

What is the difference between a jumper and a hoodie for everyday wear?

A jumper has no hood, so it sits neatly under a jacket or over a collared shirt and looks a little dressier. Quarter-zip jumpers also let you adjust ventilation as the day warms up. A hoodie adds a hood for extra warmth around your head and neck, usually with a front pouch pocket, which makes it more relaxed and handy for weekends and cold mornings outside. Hoods can bunch under a jacket collar, so a jumper or zip-through style is often easier to layer.

Which fabrics are warmest for cold outback mornings?

Wool is one of the warmest natural choices, and possum-merino blends take it further. Brands like MKM and Native World offer wool and possum-blend knitwear that provides excellent insulation without adding unnecessary bulk. Possum fibre is hollow, so it traps heat without adding weight. For easy-care warmth, heavyweight brushed fleece, like you’ll find in Ringers Western and Thomas Cook hoodies, is another solid pick. Pro tip: On the coldest days, add a vest over the top for an extra layer of warmth!

Do these jumpers and hoodies come in men's, women's, and kids' sizes?

Yes, the range covers men, women and kids with plenty of styles to choose from. Kids' options include fleece pullovers, crew neck jumpers and hoodies from popular country brands like Ritemate Pilbara, Ringers Western, Pure Western and Ariat. You’ll also find a wide selection of men’s and women’s jumpers and hoodies, with sizing varying between brands and styles. Browse our kids' jumpers, men's jumpers or women's jumpers to find the right fit for the whole family.

How do I choose the right size - fitted or relaxed?

Check the fit notes on each listing first, as they vary a lot between brands. A fitted jumper sits closer to the body, while a relaxed or oversized hoodie offers more room for comfort and layering. If you prefer a closer fit in an oversized style, compare the garment measurements before deciding whether to size down. Measure your chest and compare it with our general shirts and tops sizing guide to help find the right fit.

How should I wash a jumper or hoodie to stop it shrinking or pilling?

Always check the care label first, then turn the garment inside out and wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colours, if the fabric allows. Avoid hot tumble drying, which is a common cause of shrinkage in cotton fleece, although some Ringers Western fleeces are pre-shrunk to minimise this. Wool and merino need extra care, often requiring a gentle cold hand wash with a wool friendly detergent and drying flat to hold their shape. To limit pilling, avoid washing with towels or rough fabrics, and remove any pills with a fabric shaver.
