    How can I upset old Neapolitan gentlemen! But, our fellow @Jmr928 is neither old, nor Neapolitan!!! In all truth, there may be a charm there, but in my - old - book, the fabric(s) where blue & navy are best represented are either pure, or mix of wool / cashmere in all weights. Cotton finds a...

    Actually, blue or - even worse - navy cotton suit is a bad idea; it ages really badly, and does not worth going bespoke! Your choices are very nice. Best, Dimitris

    Deep v-neck knitwear

    Dear @thunderstruck, As the said cricket cable sweater is most probably made in 100% cotton, I am certain that Michael Jondral (a former AV of StyleForum) has ordered it in the previous SS season(s), albeit not in the deep V-neck configuration, but things might be different this time...

    Deep v-neck knitwear

    Thank you for posting a very nice WL-made piece of knitwear! Well, since I am residing in Europe, I refrain from buying things from the US, let alone from Hong Kong due to shipping, tariffs, the application of Greek VAT, and the customs handing fee by the assigned courier. More to that, I am...

    Deep v-neck knitwear

    Good to know, thank you again! I am based in Athens, and AFAIK there is no WL retailer in whole Greece, hence my initial reluctance given some size inconsistencies that were thoroughly discussed here. The said camelhair sweater is a re-branded WL, ordered by Ben Silver, a boutique in...

    Deep v-neck knitwear

    Thank you very much! Well, I cannot say if the specific gentleman whom my email is addressed to will notify me or not, I check in their site for new WL articles anyway! If you look closely, in my attached email there is a comma (,) in the end of the c) and this is followed by my personal...

    Deep v-neck knitwear

    Indeed! It is the ecru / off-white. Grey (in its most shades) will work nicely, and natural as well, however I prefer darker colors, therefore my suggestion to them before the two above were sold-out (November '23) was along those lines: Best, Dimitris

    Thank you very much! Yes, pretty mild in Athens as well! Knitwear is out of the question; I still use summer-weight trousers even for dinners... Best, Dimitris

    Happy new year dear gentlemen! A healthy one with lots and lots of knitwear pieces! Best to all, Dimitris

    I concur! ..., and perhaps a solid navy tie instead? My very best, Dimitris

    Cashmere Sweater Hierarchy

    I find it a very nice choice dear @Iskander, do enjoy it in health! A small favor for the forum at your own ease, because I would like to explore something: could you please measure and post here the exact distance between the armpit and the hem-end (as in a straight line)? Thank you in...

    Cashmere Sweater Hierarchy

    You must be ashamed of yourself; every November-December, the same story! How can I cope with the full-budgeted family Xmas vacations now? Most probably, I need to crop 2-3 days in order to get a little something from Scotland as well! Grrrrrr, Dimitris PS You, and the other usual culprit...

    Cashmere Sweater Hierarchy

    Good to hear that! Should you proceed, please keep us in the loop, and upon delivery, do post couple of images. Last, I need to correct my own statement above, I just checked their site and I see no other products neither in the men's, nor in the women's collection beside knitwear. Best...

    Cashmere Sweater Hierarchy

    Teviotdale Mills is the retail shop of William Lockie in Hawick. I bought some accessories from them last year (approx this period) and I had also a chat with them early this year about MTO options; they replied that they don't do MTO, the sell only the stock supported products from WL and some...

    Cashmere Sweater Hierarchy

    As per previous discussion on the matter (recently, only 5 pages back) this cardigan is most probably made by William Lockie. It has been cited by @Johnny80 that WL's shawl-collar cardigans are perhaps the best in the market, and he recommends them unconditionally. The one that you have linked...
