Andersen-Andersen knitwear
-
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.

New sailor crew neck in hunting green

Looks great (and warm) @Nik
-
@Nik like that a lot. Did you order direct from Denmark?
-
Thanks guys, got it from uk-based Oi Polloi
-
@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.
-
@scarfmace - I am a IH S/M so will go for the S

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!
-
great score!
-
@flannel-slut thanks a lot, now I have a blue A-A Navy 1/2 zip sweater on the way from Division Road

@mclaincausey
my apologies and your welcome all wrapped into one! -
-
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? -
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.
-
@motojobobo thanks man! Had a little buyers remorse as this was an unexpected sale/purchase but immediately went away when I tried it on.
I’m in between sizes for UHFs but usually medium in the work cut and large in western. Went with a medium for the AA
