Any idea where this will be stocked in NYC? Odin and Steven Alan do not currently have the collection, only the Woolrich stuff (apologies if this has already been discussed).

^wow, I really like that black/white/brown flannel western shirt, also the thermal turtlenecks. What is the material for the turtlenecks? The brown looks especially nice.
-Does anyone know if the shawl collar cardigans are going to be made in a variety of materials/patterns (i.e. a cotton version) or is it just the wool herringbone version? I am having a hard time narrowing it down to which knit items I want the most.

The strap at the bottom could definitely help in keeping in the warmth. I also like the rounded edges of the front pockets. Hopefully the inseam won't be too long so that it won't bunch too much at the bottom for the shorter folks. New Look on Nepenthes website:

Where can I find more info on this jacket? Is it heavy? Lined?

That's a bedford jacket, not sure on the wool type. It's a medium weight, and is unlined.

Nope, unless you do some really clever layering underneath.

It's essentially a sports coat. I don't think anyone here would mistake them for a winter coat. They're fine for an outer layer in early fall / late winter but that's about where I would draw the line.
