Andersen-Andersen knitwear

[FlavourFade]

@BeeFree I wear XL and XXL in IH products and my Andersen turtleneck is size L. It is definetely snug around chest and shoulders but for my height (184cm) it's on the edge of being too long. I can just fold the opening and the sleeves a bit and it's fine. Also because its so bulky its flattering even if I gain a little weight during christmas so don't worry too much about a "smaller" size

Usually L IH and M A-A is perfect for me

[BeeFree]

Thanks for the info guys! Ordered a large this morning. Very excited! …even though it’s the middle of summer.

Got my sweater today. Absolutely wonderful quality. Problem is I am tall and skinny with no muscle and sweater just seems too boxy for me. It’s a shame because love how beautiful it is.

[BeeFree]

Going to try and size down to try and help with the boxy-ness. These sweaters are too nice not to have one.

As others have mentioned, these sweaters really are top notch.

If anyone is interested, there is a decent sale on at Pegg & Sons https://www.peggsandson.com/collections/brands-andersen-andersen?filter.v.availability=1

Thank you both so much! I'll gladly look into both options. In the meantime I've found the Andersen & Andersen navy crew neck. It seems to be very well made, and the price reflects that.

@RobeOfTheMagi I love me a wool sweater and have always had an eye on A&A. Looks good.

[RobeOfTheMagi]

Hey lads and lasses,

would you size up?

@neph93 I can tell you, the quality is there :)!

[tody]

@RobeOfTheMagi nope, that looks fine as it is.
Is that an Andersen piece?

[RobeOfTheMagi]

Thanks @tody! I looks quite smart. I am usually between sizes. It's a bit snug around the neck, but the thick wool comes right out of the box so it might relax a bit.

For reference this is the Andersen-Andersen crew neck in size M. I'm about 180cm and 80kg. They usually advertise that size for models who are 187cm at 70-something kg for that size ...

Looks good to me.

Comfort is key. Does the neck feel too tight? FWIW, I think you’d probably be swimming on a size up

[jerkules]

@RobeOfTheMagi spot on I’d say! I really want to try one of their sweaters

[goosehd]

@RobeOfTheMagi question moved.

[RobeOfTheMagi]

Thank you @goosehd. I did not know this thread existed.

[RobeOfTheMagi]

@sabergirl Maybe the neck is not really too tight, and I am just not used to that style. This sweater does not have a front or a back, which makes the crew neck wear - well unusual :-).

The sweater in this size feels a bit like the 19oz lefty od made out of wool, if that makes sense.

[RobeOfTheMagi]

@jerkules I think I'm gonna cut the tag off :).

[neph93]

@RobeOfTheMagi definitely the right size. And wool will stretch too.

Looks good to me and congrats @RobeOfTheMagi

AA is the shit
