Best Stores for Irish Wool Clothing in Dublin (2026)

How to use this shortlist

Ten physical Dublin shopping choices cover specialist Aran knitwear, design-led clothing, broader Irish gift ranges and smaller accessories. Fibre composition, making method and fibre origin belong to the particular product. A national retailer, online catalogue or published shop window does not establish every branch’s stock. House of Ireland is retained separately for its online brand and Dublin retail history.

For a focused Aran knitwear visit

• Aran Sweater Market Dublin

  Aran sweaters, cardigans and Irish-inspired knitwear in the Grafton Quarter

  Aran Sweater Market’s two-floor Grafton Quarter shop offers traditional Aran and Irish-inspired knitwear in rustic interiors modelled on its Inis Mór store. The wider range covers adult and children’s sweaters, cardigans, coats and accessories, alongside homeware and knitting wool. Choose the Dublin location separately from the other Irish shops. A broad Aran collection does not make every garment hand-knitted or establish Irish-grown wool; check the selected item’s fibre, maker, fit, care and current shop stock.

• The Sweater Shop Dublin

  Traditional Aran knitwear near Trinity College

  The Sweater Shop’s Dublin branch is at 30 Nassau Street, D02 KR23, close to Trinity College. Its store page separately lists Black Sheep at 27 Nassau Street and the Thomas Street location. The range includes adult and children’s Aran sweaters, cardigans, scarves and other accessories, with home textiles and gifts alongside clothing. Choose the actual branch and garment, then confirm fibre, manufacture, size and colour availability. A general catalogue is separate from what can be tried on at Nassau Street.

• Cleo Dublin

  Aran handknits and a wider boutique selection of textile makers

  Cleo’s shop at 18 Kildare Street brings Aran handknits together with Cleo Original and named makers such as Inis Meáin, Fisherman Out of Ireland, Studio Donegal and McNutt. The wider collection includes wool, linen, scarves and craft; it is not entirely hand-knitted. Some pieces, including the Fisherman crew with links stitch, are labelled online-exclusive. Check the selected design’s material, making information, sizing and current shop availability rather than treating an online-only item as ready to try on.

For clothing within a broader design or gift range

• Kilkenny Design

  Irish designer gifts online, with a separate Nassau Street flagship visit

  Kilkenny Design’s Nassau Street flagship is a Dublin visit within a national multi-brand and online retailer. The shop at 6 Nassau Street has knitwear alongside jewellery, homeware, art and broader gifts; the company’s head office is in Killarney. A reviewed Heritage Collection George honeycomb full-zip Aran cardigan is described as 100% supersoft wool, which does not establish merino or the material of every garment. Check its maker, composition, size and branch stock. The upstairs café’s timetable is separate from retail opening.

• Weavers of Ireland Dublin

  Wool accessories and a wider heritage-textile range near O’Connell Bridge

  Weavers of Ireland’s Dublin shop is at 8/9 Westmoreland Street, Temple Bar, D02 NW22, with published daily opening of 09:30–22:00. Its wider heritage range combines wool clothing and accessories with tweed, linen, cashmere, mohair and home textiles. A throw is separate from a garment, and these categories do not imply that every piece is pure wool or made in Dublin. Check the selected wearable item’s fibre percentages, lining, maker, fit and care. The Killarney corporate footer phone is separate from Dublin branch contact.

• Avoca Suffolk Street

  Mill-linked textile gifts within a larger Suffolk Street shopping visit

  Avoca’s seven-level Suffolk Street flagship at 11–13 Suffolk Street combines mill-linked scarves, clothing, throws and baby blankets with broader fashion, homeware, books, gifts and food shopping. A mill connection does not mean every garment was woven at Avoca or uses the same fibre. Choose a wearable item and its actual maker, composition, size and department stock. Published retail and foodmarket hours are Monday–Saturday 09:00–19:00 and Sunday 10:00–19:00; the top-floor café’s daily 09:00–17:00 brunch window is separate.

Its current locator separates multiple Dublin branches, including O’Connell Street, Grafton Street, Suffolk Street, Henry Street, Fleet Street and Dame Street. The listed address for this profile is 57–58 O’Connell Street Upper, D01 KF76. Choose the actual branch and garment before checking material, making origin, fit and stock; general customer-support hours are separate from shop opening.

• STABLE of Ireland

  Donegal Aran knitwear within an Irish linen, tweed and design collection

  STABLE’s shop at 2 Westbury Mall, Balfe Street, combines Aran knitwear with a wider Irish design range of linen, tweed, accessories and home pieces. Its Natural Donegal Aran Jumper is described as knitted in Donegal from 100% merino wool, with a relaxed unisex fit and hand-wash/dry-flat care. The shop publishes Monday–Saturday 10:00–18:00, with Sundays and public holidays closed unless seasonal information states otherwise. Check the selected garment and current shop stock; making in Ireland does not establish where its wool was grown.

For smaller accessories or a department-store concession

• Irish Design Shop

  Irish designer-maker gifts and smaller knitted accessories

  Irish Design Shop at 41 Drury Street combines Irish designer-maker jewellery, ceramics, prints, homeware and other craft with smaller knitted accessories. Its reviewed Ekotree collection includes cashmere hats, snoods, scarves and handwarmers, plus a merino snood, with studio making described in Doolin, County Clare. This is useful for a smaller wearable gift; the collection does not establish a full sweater or coat wardrobe. Check the individual composition, dimensions, making origin and care, and confirm colour and shop stock separately from online availability.

• FOXFORD at Arnotts Dublin

  FOXFORD textile gifts in Arnotts’ department-store setting

  FOXFORD’s first-floor Arnotts concession provides a department-store route to its textiles and gifts. Its wider online collection includes the classic natural unisex V-neck, described as made in Mayo from 80% lambswool and 20% polyester. That is a wool blend, not a pure-wool garment, and the specification belongs to that product. Online variants and backorders do not establish concession stock. Confirm the selected garment, size, care and Arnotts opening arrangements; hours for other FOXFORD shops do not apply automatically.

Choose the garment and the branch together

For a focused Aran visit, start with the three specialist choices and compare STABLE’s Donegal design within its wider textile range. Hand-knitted, knitted in Ireland and made with Irish-grown wool describe different things; use the actual selected product.

For a mixed gift trip, compare the precise Dublin branch of Kilkenny, Weavers, Avoca or Carroll’s. Their wider online and national ranges do not guarantee local stock. Irish Design Shop suits smaller wearable accessories, while FOXFORD’s first-floor Arnotts concession needs its own stock and visit check.

Use House of Ireland for its current online brand and earlier Dublin retail context until a present walk-in address is confirmed. For every order or visit, check fibre percentages, maker, size, care and the current purchase or return conditions.
