Philosophy
The history of Parramatta knitwear brand is the story of a family, its passion and a long solid tradition of craftsmanship.
Terre Roveresche, it's a town in the region Marche and more precisely in Montefeltro. It is formed by 4 main castles and many hamlets straddling the valleys of Metauro and Cesano. A territory rich in art, history and culture.
Founded in 1920, the Parramatta brand proudly shows the logo of a horse... Or better said, of a mare.
In the 1920s the horse was a symbol of strength, courage and authority and the founder of the brand loved them so much that they possessed a beautiful and whimsical one that seemed crazy: hence the name Parramatta.
Racing lover - thanks to the attendance of the most famous English racecourses from Ascot to Goodwood, from Newbury to Windsor - one day, near Bradford, he met a manufacturer of cashmere knitwear who was able to convey the passion for this wonderful yarn. This combined with taste for beauty led him to found a brand that produced cashmere sweaters and unique garments in style and quality.
So, today after 100 years, Parramatta is a knitwear brand made with particularly fine yarns, capable of paying attention to fashion trends, while always remaining faithful to a refined and elegant taste.
In addition to the best wools and the purest cashmere, besides the exclusive cottons and linen, Parramatta also produces a limited series in 100% camel yarn: a precious rare fiber capable of protecting from heat and cold with a very high water-repellent capacity.
