    Nothing beats high loft goose down for warmth per gram as long as it stays dry, and high loft / fill power will pack down very well and be lightweight for travel. I agree though that a good alpaca deck jacket does incredibly well as long as you don’t need something technical for precipitation or even greater wind resistance (e.g., a hard shell).

    Personally, when I find myself in extreme cold, I reach for a down parka with a hard shell and technical layers that are warm, wick moisture, and dry quickly. In a survival situation I’d probably opt for synthetic insulation just in case things got wet.

    Think it, be it.

      Seeing this pop back up has rekindled my interest in AA… I still might pick up a sailor turtleneck one of these days. I love the natural taupe color.

      @Giles do you wear an L in their stuff?

        I have just received a Seaman. I haven’t worn it in anger yet, but so far I am happy. It feels much more durable than Merz b Schwanen merino sweater it is replacing, however it is not soft to the touch (and may even prove to be a little rough on the skin).

        As JDelage pointed out, the symmetrical neck feels a bit odd - although perhaps that will be handy if I am in a rush 😉

        The Seaman appears to be the right pick for me rather than the Sailor. The Seaman feels like a good thickness for layering with a coat or vest, and it packs down pretty well for travel (smaller than a hoodie).

        I am very glad I sized down – as they are a Danish brand and have viking sizing. Although, I was a little surprised it is made in Italy, which isn’t a bad thing.

              @Nik like that a lot. Did you order direct from Denmark?

                  Looking great! I was eying this brand over the winter - maybe I'll jump on it next season.

                    @Nik - I read that these are super heavy and wear big? Thoughts?

                      Yeah I went with a small and I wear medium in Iron Heart for the most part. Peggs and Sons measurements seem accurate. It is a heavy knit for sure.

                        I'm easy an IH XL (sometimes and XXL depending on the shoulders) and I wear a L in Andersen.

                            Will surely keep me warm next week on the Dutch beach!

                              Just purchased the dark indigo full zip at Division Road for %20 off. For sure not going to be getting any wear for a few months but been eying this piece/Andersen for a while. Psyched!

                                        Looks super nice @flannel-slut . I’m still wondering whether to go for one…of course I missed the sale period .
                                        How did you size (tag size) relative to your IH UHFs?

                                        The journey is the objective.

                                          That full zip is siiiick. I went half zip because I’m picturing this under a sport coat in winter business settings but I am a big layering guy and the full zip would be perfect for that.

                                          Think it, be it.
