I suspect that unless the cashmere is thin his outfit will be very warm. It looks from the photo as if he has it tucked in his trousers which is not a look I would go for.

He looks great. I agree with you though, the top looks tucked in and the pants go up forever. Suits his age though, he probably has 30 years on me.

Cool site, might get a couple of knits; I already have like 3 rollnecks (2 from YMC, 1 from P.Pecora), but wanted to get a couple of more. Thought of getting some off of MR.P or farfetch, but will look into this site aswell. I especially like how Faucault had a sweetspot for them, truly a timeless classic.

Has anyone stumbled on a heavy cashmere roll neck? I have only seen some 1 and 2 ply ones. And doesn't the lambs woll ones scratch too much and gets annoying, or is it just a question of getting used to it?

Thanks MoL, that looks like just the thing I am looking for. Chunky with an interesting knit. I will look for it. If anyone else have any suggestions though, please write.

I have this in a royal purple color, but can hardly ever wear it as it is too warm.

It's freezing in Denmark right now, so that won't be a problem. smile.gif Do you have a name or number to identify the sweater?

I can't seem to find this on the RL website. Does anyone know where else to look for it, or know what it is called so I can Google it?

Will's Fisherman's Knit is 10% cashmere 90% merino. http://store.asuitablewardrobe.net/fishermansknitSweater.aspx

I have my merino roll-neck on now and do not find it scratchy.

On this site one like the above is listed as Polo rather than PL http://www.lyst.com/clothing/polo-ralph-lauren-grey-hand-knit-cashmere-turtleneck-gray-1/

^That looks nice too. I hate to buy from outside the EU though, with customs and all.

Fwiw, I have a couple of LL Bean Signature cashmere turtlenecks, and have been very happy with them. Certainly not as spiffy as Inis Meain or RLPL, but quite nice (particularly for the price) - currently $85 on sale w/ free US shipping:

Pretty good - not as slim as SNS Herning, but fairly tapered. This is their Signature line, which is more contemporary.

 

Given that its LL Bean, returns and exchanges are stress-free.
