Barbour sweater for brisk weather By D.C. in D.C. from Washington, D.C. on 04/17/2008 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable, High Quality Best Uses: Casual Wear, Everyday Describe Yourself: Classic Chest Size: Feels true to size Length: Feels true to length Sleeve Length: Feels too short Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Perfect for light, early fall days on the East Coast. After you put it on, you forget it's there but will certainly appreciate it's warmth. The arm length is purely British (like all of Barbour's products - only slightly shorter than American length), as is to be expected, but the fabric gives well. I chose the option above listing it as "Feels to Short" but it isn't terribly short and again it will stretch if necessary. I like a close neckline for focus on a botton-down collar and this sweater delivers. It won't disappoint.
Great lightweight sweater By grvj from Temple City, California on 02/03/2008 Pros: Attractive Design, Comfortable Cons: wash with care-all cotton Best Uses: Casual Wear, Travel Describe Yourself: Comfort-oriented, Conservative, Practical Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Good, generous fit, lightweight cotton - nice detail stitching on sleeves to shoulder. This is the sweater you wear when a room has the A/C too low. Nice for moderately cool Southern California evenings and lightweight. I do not care for Wool crew neck sweaters (I get V-neck wool), I seem to get the neckline against my skin. This is like wearing a thick t-shirt that does not get tight anywhere. Great sweater, sleeves length a little long-drapes nicely, all cotton, use care not to wash warm.
