100% cashmere. Made in Italy. Piacenza is one of the world's oldest family owned companies, founded in 1733, 11th generation blah blah blah, read more here: http://www.piacenza1733.it/inglese/default.html. Chris Depos (the tailor) has a line on his website saying "Truly the finest cashmere and camel hair you will ever find!" It is right up there with the best of the best. I've sold a number of these already this winter and the buyers have been very happy with them. When I was in Rome, I saw them in some shop windows for a very high price and Yoox was selling their wool sweaters for around $250 the last time I checked. The sweaters seem to run true to size. The EU 48 fit me well (I'm a standard 38) with enough looseness to be comfortable but not sloppy. Price includes shipping in the U.S. Add $10 per sweater to Canada. Check with me about overseas. This will almost certainly be the last large batch of sweaters.

SORRY, all gone

50/60 "Almond" crewneck, although it looks like a light pastel orange to me. A nice spring color.

Not now. If there's more in the future, there may be a purple crewneck. But it's slim pickings, and I thought these were far and away the nicest.

Yikes, I nearly forgot, but today is the LAST DAY on these. I meant to do a more moderate cut, giving you all time to realize what a deal these are, but since I forgot, I'll give you all one last chance at a blowout price.

$99 each


Gone in two hours or less one way or the other.

Is the color on the pink accurate? Is it a very soft, fleshy, almost almondy pink? Or is it brighter in person?

It is pretty accurate in the pictures, but it's definitely a little brighter in person. Still not super bright, but a brighter than the pics.
