1980s Dale of Norway 100% Wool Sweater with Polar Bear

Authentic Dale of Norway sweater from the 1980s, knitted in 100% pure wool and featuring the brand’s distinctive polar bear motif framed by traditional Setesdal geometric patterns. The design blends elements of Norway’s centuries-old knitting heritage with the bold, graphic motifs that defined Dale’s 1980s innovation era. During this period, Dale of Norway became internationally recognised for producing exceptional quality wool sweaters for Olympic ski teams and alpine wear, uniting folk craftsmanship with modern Nordic design. The wool is soft yet dense, with ribbed cuffs and hem and a slightly cropped, boxy silhouette typical of this era.
