as long as they stay better and cheaper than suitsupply I am happy

That's the goal.

Yeah you guys aren't going to pay $200 for a sweater. Get real

I think this is the truest statement ever for a majority on this Thread.

Quick sizing question, was about to try my first sport coat. I am 6' 180 and typically wear a 40 US in eidos. Would I likely be a 40 slim in Spier? I know tough question but trying to get in the ballpark to try one out. Is it free shipping on the returns? thank you.

Same height and weight here and I take a 40slim, i swap the pants out to a contemporary out of preference for the fit through the thigh but the slim also fits

Lambswool is shorter and coarser than Merino. So that's not my first choice. I rather do a merino cut with something. I've handled modern blended yarns and some are exceptional.

1. It has to be soft, so no lambswool.
2. Mostly wool, a little bit of synthetics, can be good.
3. No shawl collars, please.

Anyone remember those “READ” posters from the 80s & 90s with celebrities posing with a book they’re reading? I think my favorites were Bo Jackson and Michael Chang. This is my #menswear version with an appropriately themed book . Taken at my local public library.

If that's the worst decision you made when drinking, I think you are doing OK

If 1/2 a beer is all it takes to break his will, who's to say what happens once he finishes it?

Re: sweaters - I like fuzzy, lofty lambswool in a crewneck and slightly fuller fit. I'm fine with a bit of synthetic to cut the cost. I'm wearing a herringbone tweed jacket from another AV today that has 15 or 20pct synthetic and nobody has tarred and feathered me, nor have the fashion gods set me aflame. Looks and feels like the real deal.

...yet. On my way over.

Can't speak for others, but I am willing to pay the premium.

How about chunky knit cotton sweaters?

Cheaper than 100% wool, easier to care for and wash/dry too.
