Indigo and cotton
They have both m and l
Thank you sir!!!! Based on my previous post, what size would be a good fit? Also, how well are these made? Are they as durable as my Filson mackinaw and will it last a long time.

Anyone who works out regularly find Starks just don't work well with having athletic physiques? I'm not a huge bodybuilder by any stretch of the imagination, but I do have some muscle from working out. I tried on a Stark last year and sized up but the arms still looked like spandex on me. I was debating whether I should stretch them out but choose to return it.

I am not a small dude and my L fits fine in the arms. It's going to be pretty much skintight. I did notice that the new season fisherman is like a full size smaller than the old one, though, which made it too small.

I think M for a slim fit and L for a looser fit. Check their return policy and you can maybe order both and return the one that don't work for you.

I know folks are constantly trying to figure out the sizing for the SNS Starks. For reference I am 5'9" 145lbs Suit size 36/37 with a fairly athletic build. The Medium Stark fit me great....

Not sure. I am also more athletic and find it works very well. Chest size is chest size, irrespective if you are more athletic or not. However, I think a Stark works better on a more v-shaped torso. If the mid-section is as big as the chest and the cardigan hugs it in the same way, it can look weird due to the slim fit. Arms can be a challenge but less of an issue to me. I also expect that virgin wool will stretch a bit.

For what it's worth, I wore one last week traveling to San Francisco. On both flights the flight attendants (different ones) complemented me on the cardigan. Obviously something is working ...

Ha,,,,,Got the same complement on my flight...But no one else was wearing the same sweater, just waiting !

Anybody know any retail stores that sell "S.N.S. Herning Fisherman Full Zip" in America, would really love to buy one without the outrageous sales tax and shipping cost.  Anyone selling?  Can't seem to find one.  Also any alternatives, looking for knitted full zip.   


For reference, I'm 5'9 155lbs, athletic build.  Thanks!!!


If you scroll back in this thread a mere few pages there's a post from me w/ most of the domestic stockists. I think I missed Carson Street Clothiers...not sure they have the Fisherman FZ.

Also, @stevent is selling a concrete FZ Fisherman. Nice piece. http://www.styleforum.net/t/370852/...rman-shawl-paragon-3a-loden-38-6a-sky-40/0_30

Indigo and Cotton is an additional 10% off, $194 is a pretty solid price. You aren't really going to find better full zip alternatives

Code is extra10

Thanks, maybe I'll wait and see if I can find a better deal. But as of now, I've gone a little over the budget buying gifts for Christmas. haha....

Dude I'm sure if you look around on the internet you could find some very similar buttons on etsy or some DIY/maker's supply/sewing type place for very, very cheap. They're pretty unremarkable metal buttons after all, nothing particularly distinguishing that you shouldn't be able to find with a little searching.

Then again, if you're set on strictly SNS buttons and don't mind paying for the convenience/added knit, more power to you
