Hi, I need some help with the sizing, I am 6´1, 185lbs, 44.5 chest and 33 waist, fairly athletic. Which size would fit me best for the fisherman sweater and the stark cardigan?

How do the fishermen sweaters fit these days? I bought one years ago and found that it is very tight in the chest and armpits. Kind of want one with a zipper because I like how they look, but unsure if I should size up

i'm the same height, but lighter (180lb) and with a slightly smaller chest (40"ish). i have two starks and both are M, although the sleeves are incredibly long.

With a stark, probably a XL due to your chest size.

You might need to flip back the sleeve cuffs, depending on arm length. I am 6ft 170-5 and a 42 coat and happy in XL in Stark. I don't think a L would work for me at all.

Any ideas of how SNS currently fit? I had a Stark 10 years ago, but the current measurements (at End) look tiny, even for an XXL. Also considering the Fisherman Full zip (which is TTS according to the SNS homepage), but haven't found any measurements.

They changed the fit of the stark some years back - they are now a lot shorter. In my opinion the stark fits one size smaller than their other sweaters. It's also quite stretchy, so size charts can be deceptive.
I'd say the fisherman is TTS, a large being equivalent to a 50

Hi there, I am new to SNS.
I recently purchased two light-weight zip up cardigan, didn't expect the wool is so rough. Do you soften it before first use? It feels like a deluxe sand paper on me.

It may shrink a bit after first wash right?

Hello.
I'm interested in the purchase of a new Stark: I've found a size which should fit me well (compared to other knits I have), but I wonder how much I should take into account stretching. It tends to deformate a lot?
Also, quality wise, how are they nowadays? It seems they are no longer knitted in Denmark from their description.
Thank you.

I got a FIsherman zipped last year, the quality is still fantastic.

Gents, what do you think of this fit?
It's an XL Stark, I'm 183 cm and 80 kg.

Hi there. Looking for some SNS stark sizing advice. I’m 6’2 180 with a 40” chest. Should I go with a L or an XL?
