Hi, if I wear size 10D in LL Bean Katahdin boots, what size should I get for the thorogood 685? Should I get 10D as well?

Thanks!

Just wear it. It's a hand-knit wool garment; it'll conform to your body some as you wear it. Mine has. Legendarily, if you hand wash a knit you can reshape it when it's wet. I tend to wash knits about once or twice every calendar year, max, and wouldn't advocate washing if you don't absolutely need to, but that's probably an option, too. EDIT: This is the wash information from the website:
CARE INSTRUCTIONS: Hand wash in cold water and lay flat to dry. If washed in hot water, the sweater will felt and shrink; if hung up when wet, it will stretch. The Northern Watters Knitwear Guarantee: Northern Watters Knitwear offers a maintenance program, whereby if your sweater ever pills, or if you get a pull in it, the company will fix it free of charge, for life.
Again, I wouldn't wash it when you first get it. It will fit itself to your body, most likely. What size Epaulet shirt do you wear? There's a chart on the page linked above that should help.

This reference affirms my belief we'd get along famously in real life. I'd even "rhyme slow" and let you be the one to "rhyme fast."

I agree wholeheartedly.

Sounds wonderfully kinky.

I actually don't own any Epaulet shirts; based on the measurements I'd probably take a large, except they appear to be about an inch too short in sleeve and body length for me.

But if the sweater can stretch an inch in length, I might be in business..

Sorry guys, we had very limited stock in this size and they went quickly. But two notes: 1. If you take a Small in our shirts, you can definitely wear a 38. Two of our best in-store customers - both of whom regularly buy Small shirts and would take a 36R jacket - bought 38's this week and they looked great. The sizing on this item isn't really that sensitive. You'd only really need the 36 if you're a true XS. Other than that, you could really wear either. 2. I've got more on-order. Production time is actually pretty quick, so I anticipate getting the restock in about 4 weeks. Please PM me if you'd like to reserve a unit.

I think I'll try the 38. Now just to decide on the color...
