what does that have to do with anything

It's kinda backwards logic to me. It should read like this instead:

Stop working out; acquire blubber: knits, cold, hemorrhaging $$$.

I actually work out more. I started jogging again and I think I shed a few excess pounds of fat since all my lifts have gone up since then while remaining the same weight, not to mention my shoulders getting even bigger.

^nice

going to start up my sprints again but it's cold as fuck and the hard part is getting started

Running in the cold can give you arthritis and joint problems (?)

Random though: 24hour gym complex being built literally 5-10min walking distance from my house. Now I can finally fit in my cardio once the place opens and run to and from, saving gas too. Time to get my jet on

I'm tech ninjaed out in tights and other warm base layers. My jogs are basically the one time I'm never cold outside.

Good posture makes clothing look a million times better. Really glad I've started doing yoga.

Note that there's a difference between being cold and feeling cold.

Fatties are more insulated and lose heat less easily, but that doesn't mean their bodies don't function in the same way that ours do. When it's cold, your body conserves heat by reducing blood flow to the extremities, which is why your hands and feet get cold. It makes you feel cold, but it stops your core temperature from being cold. The opposite happens when it's warm, and you also sweat.

A byproduct of using stored chemical energy for mechanical movement (=exercise) is heat. To get rid of this excess heat, your body increases circulation to the extremities, effectively acting like a radiator (increased surface area). You also sweat. The increased circulation to the extremities that happens when you exercise helps you feel warmer. Again, your core temperature stays the same.

But this doesn't make you feel warmer when not exercising, you say?
there's a couple of things at play:
1. Exercise makes me hungrier. more energy to burn. More energy utilised in digesting the food. -->more heat
2. People often go on about how exercise increases your metabolism after exercise. IMO, it's more a case of increased demand for energy to repair muscle. Again, this makes heat as a by product.

IME when I exercise regularly I feel the cold less.

I recently bought a couple of their shirts. As far as I can tell they are well made and good value for money. The ones I have also have nice wood buttons and little design quirks that make them different from my other shirts. Looks to me like another Scandinavian brand to watch, and half the price of NN.07.

Tracking packages is fun.

need a purple crewneck knit thats not SNS. Anyone?

Look, pretty much any brand will release a purple crewneck; you just gave us 1) a fucking colour + 2) one of the two most common description of a sweater along with v-neck 3) a one brand exclusion, opening the door to every other brand in the world. Buy any brand from GAP to Ann Demeulemeester, well anything aside from SNS.

Digging Siki Im but I can't think of a designer less suited to me on a look/lifestyle basis.

i apologize I should have been more detailed. Sub 200$ would be nice , in something heavier than a merino. I have looked at the obvious ie. GAP, Clubmonaco, Jcrew, uniqlo.
was hoping for some others.. Jcrew has one but I hate buying from them.
