Andersen-Andersen knitwear

[Giles]

There is def one in my future…...

[bertoni]

The perfect sailor knit Giles…perfect for your neck of the woods and your seafaring/fishing escapades

The roll neck looks very nice, and going by the size guide they seem to fit pretty big, i.e. a Medium looks like it would work for me, whereas I'm generally an XL in IH shirts and jackets.

[bertoni]

Not sure about that mate. I'm an L in all IH shirts and i've got an M here which is pretty fitted. May keep it but have an L on the way just to be sure I didn't make a mistake. The measurements for the M shown on the Unionmade side seem more accurate than the ones on Oi Polloi.

What size did u get G, large?

[Giles]

Yep….

[pillowPANTS]

Great, now i now they wont fit me fer feck sakes lol

[junglo]

I did consider Andersen-Andersen, it looks seriously heavy-duty. I decided to get a custom handknit instead.

[derivative666]

I want one if these badly. G would I fit in an xl?

[Giles]

I think so.  The L is good on me…...Wore it to the beach yesterday - amazingly warm under a Patagucci Torrent Shell

Hey mate, I take an L in IH shirts and the Medium in this fits perfectly. You won't find a better knit anywhere.

Who stocks?

[bertoni]

Unionmade are the only ones I know stateside. Volks in Europe. There's a list of stockists on the Anderson site. Now one of these would keep you warm(er) this winter mate

[Giles]

Get it shipped to me, I'll ship it to you with your next purchase…..And that applies to any of you.....

[mclaincausey]

Will do. I looked at all the US stockists and didn't see anything I wanted. Thanks much!

[bertoni]

Can heartily recommend Volks…even get a few sweets with your purchase

[Finn666]

i think you mean voLLs instead of voLKs

[bertoni]

Err yeah that'd be the one! Thanks Finn

You guys are killing me. I've gone completely wool jumper made lately, and these look wonderful.  There's a size chart on the Oi Polloi website, if that helps anyone. No idea if it's accurate or not, but here are the roll neck measurments:

Size                   Pit To Pit Back Arms Shoulders
Small                   21.0   26.0 19.0     16.0
Medium             22.0        26.5 19.5     17.0
Large                   23.0   27.0 19.7    18.0
X-Large             24.0   27.5 20.0     19.0

Sadly I'd probably need it to be 25" pit to pit. Saved some money though, I suppose!
