Would you buy this sweater?

Ignoring the cost.

no its too big for me, but thanks for asking. (;


I am not fondof the colour or the blue smudge on the chest.

 

[FormalFashion08]

I mean would you buy it based on style/appearance. Not size.

And blue smudge? Ha....ha...?

I agree, the logo is pretty glaring, due to the color contrast. I think you could find something similar from e.g. Brooks Brothers without a logo, or with a more subtle one.

I would not buy it, I don't like the colour, I am not a fan of cotton sweaters and I don't like logo's.

The style/cut look nice.

I had an older polo in that same/near same color. Looked great with a slim pair of charcoal, flat-front slacks.

Did have one guy ask me if I was captain of the Enterprise.

what did you say

Not a huge fan of the colour, but I have the same cotton v-neck Polo sweater in pink that I do like, so clicked yes. They fit quite nicely and are fairly durable, though mine has needed one small repair in a 2-3 years of use.

Hrrf. You'd have to wear it a few sizes too small for the full Shatner effect.

I can't wear that color because it washes out my complexion. If you are darker skinned or very light skinned it might look really great though. Especially as part of larger ensemble.

collar detail (or whatever that ribbed area at the edge is called) came away from the body of the sweater at the back - needed a five minute repair job, sewing the two edges back together and now good as new. I think I took it off ina hurry one day and the stretching as I pulled it over my head caused the tear. Doubt it's a systemic fault in these sweaters, but there you go.

ralph lauren did that for you?

I think it looks fine. I used to really dislike the logos on everything but now I just don't care anymore
