I'm on a bit of a Stay style kick here, so I was wondering if there's any decent cardigans at decent prices. Specifically I'm looking for light grey, chocolate brown, or black. eBay hasn't pulled up anything that worthy, except a brown Lacoste cardigan that has that dreadful alligator embroidery on it. Thanks in advance.

Try Paul & Shark ... bought few of their items in Italy last month...very nice. I belive there are few good sellers on Ebay dealing with this line.

I think I may go with Gap. Thanks for the tip, luk-cha.

There's a very Browne-esque varsity stripe cardigan there that looks really nice.

Urban Outfitters actually has a nice cardigan that is striped. Has 2 colorways, black with thin blue stripes, or navy with white stripes (i think). Actually fits nice. Costs $59.

That ebay link cardigan is nice. The measurements are good for you, it'll have a nice fitted appearance and won't look "Mr Roger-ish"

I guess I should have said this before... I'm not looking to spend all that much over $50. Thanks for the tip, Jason. I'll check out their website, I don't think there's a store near me.

EDIT: Okay, they're striped but I meant the stripes on the sleeve similar to Thom Browne. Thanks anyway, I may have a look at the solid black one.

I have two extremely fitted silk/wool cardigans from YSL Rive Gauche circa Slimane.

Apparently none of that sold very well since I got it for a very discounted price from the original, which was quite high, even for today.
