ExOfficio Soy'R 1/4-Zip Sweater - Men's - 2008 BCS

The best midweight sweater around. I wear it all the time and it never picks up odor. The ribbing keeps it classy enough for work events and presentations, but the fabric has enough wool and techyness that it stays dry and comfortable. Gallivanted around Europe while wearing this thing every other day and it held up perfectly. No fraying, no pilling, no stink. I'm going to try to hunt down a spare.

I am really impressed with this sweater. I bought two on SAC when they came up figuring I'd pick which color I liked best and return the other. I ended up keeping both. I bought an XL and it is just the right size for me. Not baggy like some XLs, and not too long either. Can easily get by for casual office attire or just something comfortable to wear with jeans when you are running around on the weekends. The wool makes it warm and breathable. Not hot and heavy like all cotton sweaters. Nicer looking than a hoody, but just as comfortable.

I picked one up in Black at a local warehouse sale and I cannot say enough good things about it. Throw it on for days between 50 and 60 degrees and leave the house. You dont need a coat its plenty warm. I usually wear mine with a Cap 1 undershirt and some jeans in the spring/fall months. If I wear it under my Typhoon shell on more brisk days it serves well as a mid layer. I havent put it throught the paces of Midwest "dead of winter" yet but I think it will perform well.

One of my other favorite things about this sweater is that it doesnt hold smells. I wore it to a bonfire last month and sure it smelled in that evening but I laid it over the back of a chair and by morning it smelled clean! I have worn it dozens of time and have yet to wash it. I will say that the Dry Clean only sucks; but the solution is....Dont wash the damn thing and you'll be money!
