Looking for merino, cashmere or silk turtlenecks (thin) to wear under sportcoats and the like. Who makes good quality ones and for the brand given, how do they fit (slim, full, go up a size etc.) Saw some Toscano(?) on STP and was wondering if any had any experience with those
Thanks!

The made in England merinos from Paul Stuart are great. John Smedley's are also quite nice.

Look for the Scottish made Brooks Brothers ones, and I saw a few made by "Something" of Elgin from Scotland too that were fantastic.

I don't know who Oxxford uses but they had a few nice ones about 2 seasons ago.
