I bought uniqlo dry sweats and a hoodie for gym after my nike tech stuff started looking ******, and honestly you're getting pretty much the same quality for quarter of the price

this might be too tech-y for you, but I have this nike knit that is great for working out when it's cold. has kangaroo pocket too. not cropped at all, slightly long.

Need a loose gray or charcoal sweatshirt, nice long fit not cropped and no repro details any suggestions? I ask this every year btw.

Not trying to spend designer money like 300 on this k thx.

I have the exact same request, but I want a chunky, shawl collar cardigan for ~300. I guess I could just get another 3A (is END the only stockist now?), but I was thinking of branching away from blue. RRL is always a possibility, though the budget is waaaayy off, and I'm never sure about embracing the southwestern thing. I guess Kanata is an option, too. What am I missing?

If you want a real workaday thing, just get a Pendleton: http://www.pendleton-usa.com/produc...AR-CARDIGAN/174935/sc/1727/c/2415/pc/1814.uts

Foreign Rider Co - Canadian, minimal, after-surf beach type wear. I don't own any of their cotton stuff, but I lived in their merino wool tee shirt all summer.

Seems a little cleaner/luxurious than my nefarious aims, from what I've seen? Which is mostly what's at your shop, and other people with the same stuff. Also, I thought S+C was notably pricier, no?

Would be cool to see a few of you guys participate. I know we have a few scoundrels on this side of the forum.

@Synthese

The Armoury looks nice: https://thearmoury.com/catalogs/sho...-armoury-lambswool-shawl-collar-cardigan-navy

I am sure @dieworkwear can provide more suggestions.

I haven't seen a shawl collar from a SW&D designer brand lately, maybe I am not looking hard enough. I personally like what the CM side of brands have to offer in this specific category and as @gdl203 suggested. The S&C "Victoria" burgundy would suit a playboy like you I'd think.

Edit:
I thought Drakes would have a lower priced wool version but they only offer cashmere with one camel hair. Not a fan of that color personally for a shawl.


The Eidos is cool but you should hunt for this:

Or even the Ajrak medallion cardigan

They're finally showing on the qlo site, I had checked a couple weeks ago and nothing. Also popped into a store and they have 98 versions of 6 things for guys.

this might be too tech-y for you, but I have this nike knit that is great for working out when it's cold. has kangaroo pocket too. not cropped at all, slightly long.

That looks real good though I have a couple similar nike shirts like that and wanted something more loungey like real sweatshirts for post gym burger/fried chicken runs to fairfax.

I think I'm going to pull the trigger on the button up stark facsimile by uniqlo u just for ***** and giggles.

I am sure @dieworkwear can provide more suggestions.

@Synthese, don't really have anything that hasn't already been suggested. Scott & Charters and The Armoury are nice for that CM kind of cardigan. Drake's are made by the same people who make for The Armoury, but they just use different materials. Inverallan is nice. I also like RRL, as you know. Eidos is good for those belted styles. I don't think that style works on everyone, but I think you could pull it off.

Kanata is good for cowichans. Self Edge has a cowichan-style cardigan this season from Chamula (I suppose not technically a cowichan since it's made in Mexico and not by Cowichan people?).

I also like these cowichan-inspired styles with stand up collars. Number (n)ine had one in their "My Own Private Portland" collection years ago. Sold out, but you can find the (less attractive) black and gray version right now on Rakuten.

Quetzal Saunders also recently posted this on his IG, which I thought looked nice. Would love to get something like this, actually, but I don't know who makes this one.

If you're open to that stand up collar style, Inis Meain also made a really nice one back in the day. NMWA carried it, but I don't know where you can get them now. A little more CM-y than the ones photographed above, but nice.

Oh, and obviously SNS Stark for the same sort of style, but you already know that one.

Walmart is really stepping up their streetwear game these days.
