Good looking and light

By Szu-Ping Lee Ranked #189 - Men's Shirts October 26, 2007

This is a very nice looking sweater from the Icelandic company. It is made of fairly good quality wool so the itch was tolerable. I usually don't wear anything made of wool because I have sensitive skin, but this sweater seems alright on top of just a short sleeve shirt. Part of it might be because they put fleece liner on the inside of the collar.
The weight of it is minimum. It is lighter than most fleece jackets, but of course, it doesn't have any pockets. I speculate the suitable wearing temperature range of it is about 40~60F in no wind or in town situations. I would say this is the kind of piece you wear for the look, not the functionality. But it can be worn as a mid layer under a shell, which obviously defeat the propose of such a stylish sweater. The cut is good around the shoulder but a little bit wide at the bottom. The zipper can and should be of higher quality. And like other people suggested, the pull of the zipper is on the left hand side.
