Someone said: "nice sweater - looks like autumn." I thought: "Yea, it is a warm cool-weather sweater."
This is a working sweater, not a fashion thing. It will keep you warm.
I bought the Forest in Med. It fit me perfectly. Body was a touch long but not bad. Fairly fit, which works well for me but possibly tight if you are bigger around. I have short arms (32")so sleeves need to be fitted back about 2 ". And, since it was room temp (72 deg) the sweater felt worm and comfortable but not thick. Material is not fluffy - very flat and folds very flat - not taking up much room but is dense/heavy. Probably not for short round people, but slim will find it flattering.
Most will find it functional, and I expect it to wear for a very long time. Not soft and easy on bare skin but nice over thin material.
This dlis my 2nd of these because it’s so darned versatile! I’ve ditched all of my nylon fleece wear because of it and other wool shirts and undies. I’ve become a sheep! If I’m walking or hiking, the heat buildup is really slow and dissipates sweat. If it’s cold and rainy, just add one layer or a rain jacket til it stops. Even when wet, this continues to keep me warm and comfortable. I do, however, find myself in a flock of friends who have discovered that wool is always great.
Don’t wait, buy one now!
Comfy, stylish, and it breathes well. I can easily wear this in the low 50's. It's great for layering too.
Great style and comfort
