Chabanel is probably the lightest one.
I'm a big "sweat-er" so it's good for me.

Didn't have enough moola then, but will likely pick up the Shaw Cardigan Chabanel next week.

Nice. I have the Terry Loop and a few flannels and chinos from this season. They are the most comfortable items I own (besides Schneider and Ervell).

Thinking about copping 1 of the knits/vests soon.

How is the Schneider Ervell stuff?
I've heard good things.

Any recommendations?
Again I sweat easy, so I do like to layer, but like to keep it light.

It is hard to find Schneider stuff, so unless you want to be a hunter....

As for Ervell, ANYTHING he makes is just amazing.

Wolverine 1000 miles

OR

MMM replicas?

Both around the same price, and I need some good shoes, my Jack Purcells are just not killin' it enough for me.

Which replicas? The recent MMM replicas aren't that high quality. Go for some Rafs

To be honest, I need both, so I suppose my question really becomes, which should I cop first? lol.

I was looking at the MMM replica sneakers (white), on TBS.

The completely white one? IDK those are kinda boring IMO. Might as well get the traditional GATs on the MMM website. Or the greys. I like the greys.
