Very nice! How do you like the fabric beyond the color? Drape, hand, warmth etc. I've been eyeing the green version of it.

I haven't worn it for long and just dropped it off to have its sleeves shortened so my impressions are limited.

That said, it looks to be an all-around good cloth. It drapes well, the feel in the hand is very pleasant - nice and soft, you can definitely feel the cashmere in there. In terms of weight, it's not light but not too heavy either (10-11oz-ish) - I don't get hot when wearing it at room temperature. A positive in my book as it's more 4 seasons for me rather than strictly autumn/winter. Hope this helps.

Does anyone have any experience with sizing for the half zip sweaters? I ordered my usual size and feel like it is pretty snug all around and wasn't sure if others have had the same experience or not.

Merino and Cotton both fit a little slim, yet true to size.

Wool and Cashmere are a little roomier.

Not on the immediate horizon, no.. But in time, surely.

A quiet minute on the shop floor, so I dressed up a mannequin after one of the younger guys had told me that this shirt was ‘impossible’ to wear..

Would you wear it?

Or go for high contrast and dress the shirt with a cream flannel suit, midnight blue silk tie, and colour 8 burgundy cordovan balmorals… 👊🏻

Cross post from the WAYWRN thread. This was my first Cavour jacket - last season's brown herringbone from Marling & Evans.

@kevinsvindland If you're looking for a new, shorter and fatter model for the website - hit me up! I'll happily do it in exchange for a certain Orazio Luciano oatmeal jacket. 😏
