There's no Such Thing as a Stupid Question

Yeah, I hear ya. I’ve been doing some reading about them and it seems they’re size charts don’t match what people actually are receiving pre-Soak. I hear they run much smaller than what they state.. that’s enough for me to stay away. 40 dollar shipping from the other side of the world and not knowing what I’m gonna get? That’s a hard pass.

Does anyone else do a properly designed and constructed old school cardigan like this …?

The best looking one that I have seen is the Mister Freedom "Campus Cardigan", but it's significantly more expensive than the example you posted.

I own the natural one, and compared to all ofther cardigans and sweaters I've owned in my life (That I can recall), this one is a "tank". Very heavy, dense knitting, 100% wool, and it's WARM.
I can tell you that Ohio Knitting Mills is who made them for MF, so if you poke around the internets, maybe they have made something similar for another brand, with less of a mark-up.
(Here's the OKM website…)

I just bought something from Uniqlo. Am I supposed to feel ashamed?

Guys and Gals need help, please!
Since I liked my last set of WAYWT pictures in IH clothes, I thought it might be fun to do it more often for day hikes. I checked all dealers within the EU, the ones I know, for a IHSH-127 V2 red/black in M, there seems to be none left. Any tips? @Giles are there maybe any left in jp…there would be no rush at all?
The IHSH-157 in Burgundy would be nice as well, which is still available in my size.
Alternatively I am looking for a shirt like the IHSH-127 red/black buffalo check, but in 100% wool. Is there somebody out there who makes a shirt like this? Didn't found anything. I only found plain black ones.
I would like to use just one for hiking, since with backpacks it will get worn pretty fast. Since I wear IH for work as well I do not want this happen to my IHSH-130 red/black, which I love.
Thanks in advance!

Depends. But if it’s these then no. It’s 2018 and no-one here is going to judge you. We all love you for who you are, @Chris , it’s OK.

@marlin how about the new version?

The IHSH-157 is a great shirt. It’s not the colour you wanted and it’s a wool/nylon blend but I can recommend the IHSH-163. It’s a brilliant cold weather layer and is great for holding in heat and wicking away moisture.

I needed something delicate that wouldn't easily show through my clothes. And they make me feel pretty.
You know what that's like, right, neph?

Thanks @Alex, but the shoulders are just that little bit too tight. I'll want to get underneath a thin moisture wicking T-Shirt or Longsleeve.
Thanks @neph93, the IHSH-163 is a wounderful shirt but I want for this use a brighter color for a better contrast against sky, rocks and snow. I'am also afraid that I will loose the buttons every now and then, due to the hipbelt and sternum strap.

Thanks @Dstauffer for your recommendation! A WAYWT pic would be nice, since they almost never show up…but please don't put another 4 layers on top of it
;), I'll want to see the shirt!
