Do any of you have experience with sweaters from Aran Sweater Market? They measure their sleeves from the center of the back, rather than the base of the collar, so all of their measurements are very short -- even the largest sizes are only 33-34. I don't know how that compares to sleeve lengths measured from the back of the neck.

Also, Aran sweaters generally have a reputation for being boxy, but I'm not sure how this particular maker's sweaters fit. Any insight would be much appreciated.

I just found this site myself and am interested too. I think I may pick up one of their scarves to see what the quality is like. At any rate, they have some interesting things and the prices seem reasonable.

I bought one of their merino aran sweaters a few years back (ended up selling it later on grailed). Nice sweater, but it was a boxy fit. I found they ran TTS though.
