I'm looking to get some V-neck sweaters (hopefully on sale now that the season is coming to an end). I was wondering if anybody could comment on Tuscano sweaters and Brooks Brothers lightweight Supima V-neck sweaters. I'm not looking for anything too bulky as the weather doesn't call for it. Also, don't want anything too tight or too loose.

Also, will Brooks Brothers start putting the V-neck sweaters on sale/clearance anytime soon?


Appreciate the help

I'm also interested in feedback on the Brooks supima sweaters. How would a medium fit?

The BB supima sweaters are great, but the sizing is inconsistent. I purchased two v necks on the same day, in the same size, and they fit very differently...not sure why. Also, you should know that these sweaters are not very form fittings...more parachute fitting.

I don't have any Toscano sweaters.

I have both BB and Toscano Merino sweaters and the quality seems about the same. The merino BB sweaters are thicker and warmer, but Toscano fit me better.
