I pretty much jumped at the chance to review one of the jumpers Numskull are selling this Christmas. If you follow me on Instagram you'll know that in my spare time (if that exists) I've been playing Fallout 4. My partner and I were both gamers when we met, and when the kids are in bed, if we aren't watching movies, we're usually on the Playstation...
The Vault Suit has got to be one of the worst designs in clothing history, but it's so bad it's excellent, and Numskull have turned it into a jumper beautifully. The colours are great and bold, and the jumper is knitted with 100% acrylic wool, so it's quite thin and you won't be sweltering wearing it inside. I'm giving this to my partner Christmas morning, so I roped in my eldest to model...he didn't take a lot of persuading!
It even has the Vault 111 number on the back...
It's a nicely made item of clothing, with long sleeves and a long torso. My son is around 5ft9 and usually wears medium to large, so I'm impressed with the cut and sizing. There are no imperfections and the seams are tidy and tight.
I'd be a liar if I said I'd washed it already, I haven't, but I've had enough acrylic jumpers in the past to be confident it'll keep it's shape and size. It suggests washing at 30 degrees and can take a cool iron, although whoever has time to iron a jumper is beyond me - you could be off fighting Bloatflies and checking your settlers have enough Muttfruit.
Almost indistinguishable from the real thing....
We love it, my partner will love it. It's actually a really nice jumper. With the added bonus that most people will assume you have bizarre taste, and those who recognise it will then confess their knowledge and you can make a new friend...
Numskull don't only have jumpers for the age 18+ game Fallout 4 - they also have a big range of Dr Who, Star Wars, Playstation, Street Fighter and other jumpers, plus Christmas jumpers too! It doesn't even stop there - they have loads of clothes, mugs, peripherals and other stuff to keep you, or your favourite geek, happy.
Our Vault 111 Jumper currently retails at £34.99 with free delivery and is unisex - available in 7 sizes from XS to 3XL. It's a great price for something so niche. With a house full of Gaming, Dr Who and Star Wars fans, Numskull is definitely somewhere we'll be shopping in future....
