Parramatta – Italian Knitwear with Tradition

Parramatta is an Italian brand specialising in refined knitwear made from cashmere, merino wool, linen, cotton and other natural fibres. Its collections combine traditional craftsmanship with relaxed elegance, without relying on prominent logos or short-lived trends.

The garments are produced by the Icomas knitwear factory, which has more than 65 years of manufacturing experience. Every stage, from selecting the yarn to finishing the garment, remains under the company’s direct supervision. The result is comfortable and understated clothing that fits naturally into an everyday wardrobe.

Parramatta itself revives a brand with a history spanning more than a century. Its emblem, a horse wearing a red bandana, originally symbolised strength, courage and confidence—values that remain part of the brand’s identity today.

In my opinion, Parramatta’s greatest strength is how natural its clothes feel. They are elegant without appearing overly formal. A linen polo works just as well with high-waisted trousers as it does with shorts, while a fine knit can be worn on its own or underneath an unstructured jacket. These are clothes for men who want to dress well without making an unnecessary display of it.

The manufacturer also pays attention to the environmental impact of its production. It uses naturally biodegradable, compostable or reusable yarns, recovers more than 90% of its manufacturing waste and states that it generates all the electricity required for lighting, heating and cooling its facilities.
