 CHIMERA …

 “It's just buttery soft, and just the right layer of warmth.  I also really dig how fitted it is – too many sweaters are made for guys with a belly.” 

– Andrew L. (Colorado)

 

“I love the Chimera.  It fits great and actually, I wasn't sure what to expect when I bought it. I wasn't sure what the fabric would feel like or how thick it was in comparison to a wool or a fleece mid layer.  I was pleasantly surprised at how soft and comfortable it was and the bonus was that it didn't itch like traditional wool.”

– Jay W. (Washington DC)

 

“I just love the colors and the fabric! Mix of brown and red is, in my taste, great. I also like the cut, in particular the slightly longer arms and back – these areas are often exposed during various activities so I am thinking the Chimera will cover these areas in a way many others will not.”

– Simon S. (Norway)

 

ROOSEVELT … 

 “I got the Roosevelt.  Soft and surprisingly warm. My only issue is that the cut of top seems to be better suited for lean, athletic types, who are closer to 6'3" and don't spend all day looking at a computer screen!”

– David G. (Washington DC)

 

“It feels great!  I think it looks pretty sharp on me, too, even if it's more fitted than I'd have probably chosen.  And the fit/warmth will be very helpful when layering under my jacket during the winter months. Overall I’m pleased with my purchase, and am even contemplating the idea of adding another Roosevelt to my wardrobe, in the natural brown.”

– David H. (Pennsylvania)

 

“This was my first day in it and I love it.  It is very soft … I usually find wool, even cashmere scratchy.”

– Martin I. (Texas)

 

“I have to say, the sweater is GORGEOUS! I had no idea it would be so soft and luxurious. I love the thickness of it, as well.”

– Katherine R. (Washington DC)

 

“I was very excited to receive the Khunu yak's wool top, which fits perfectly by the way.  I am 6'4" and 175lb, so quite tall with long arms.  I was really impressed that the sleeves were the right length, so a big plus there! It's also the softest wool I have ever felt.  I have a lamb's wool sweater that I thought was about as soft as wool got, but I was proven very wrong there!  As a result, it feels incredible to wear, never itchy and nice and warm.”

– Luke R. (Wisconsin)

 

OLD MONK … 

 “I am absolutely delighted with the product and am genuinely impressed with the quality. So you have one happy customer in Europe at least.”

– Steve W. (Germany)

 

“Initial thoughts.  Great fabric; love the color and the color combo; zipper is a bit rough, the slide could be a bit better; pockets from the outside look nice but look a bit fragile from the inside; surprised that there no sign of the brand on the outside … mind you, I am fine with that.”

– Alexis A. (Hong Kong)

 

"I knew the Old Monk would be a great mid-layer for snowboarding or hiking, but have found it to be a much more dynamic and capable addition to my wardrobe. Its weight allows it to be a versatile layer, but I've found it is exceedingly comfortable and stylish enough to wear as an outer layer in both active and social environments."

– Pete S. (Toronto)
