Dale of Norway Storen Jacket - Virgin Wool (For Men)

It is the best wool zip sweater for me. It is warm, confortable and stylish design.

this is my new favorite sweatshirt that is not a sweatshirt. way more comfortable. keeps a person very warm without the bulk of a sweatshirt. i bought another once i found out that it has a great fit.

The fabric is amazing. From a distance, this looks like a jersey sweatshirt, but up-close, you can see that it is VERY finely woven wool, and it is a meticulously tailored garment. The design, colors and workmanship are all top notch. Because this is not a very heavy-weight sweater, by itself it is very usable in the California climate. Bottom line: Very sophisticated in a casual way.

This is a great buy for the money and I will be using it all winter for layering its not too bulky to wear under jackets but its heavy enough to keep the chill off.

zippers on pockets seem like they want to hang up i can see them breaking if used heavily

Not much more for me to rave about this wool jersey sweatshirt--I love them (now have three). One added design feature worth mentioning is that the chevron [^] design around the waist visually reduces any little belly that you may have there; nice benefit. Otherwise, heavy usage indicates that light colored cuffs tend to get and look dirty, even though the entire piece washes beautifully. I bought my third one in brown so that it can be worn doing chores without fear of grungy cuffs. Highest recommendation.

This is an extremely well made lightweight wool jacket that can be used either as a mid-layer or for cool weather wear. It isn't windproof but still provides warmth. Quite stylish with a nice color combination. It fits me exceptionally well but I am slim from daily mountain biking. The arm length is fine for me and I wear 34/35 length sleeves.

This really is a great sweatshirt-weight jacket or sweater--so great that this is my second one after the first only a month ago. The design features--like the little hood at the top of the main zipper, that prevents the metal gripper from rubbing your chin and the thumb holes to keep sleeves down, are just great engineering. Teriffic smooth wool knit too; it washes beautifully, just dry it on a flat towel overnight. Even the bright yellow and brown are more complimentary to other clothes than you might first expect. I also just found and bought the matching Dale striped knit hat. Great combo for XC Skiing next year. Do not hesitate on this one: so far superior to cheesy plastic fleece that you'll wonder how wool slipped out of top spot in this layered-sportswear market.

Everytime I put this on I wonder how wool allowed the market to slip away to plastic fleece. This thing is great, stretches, beathes and washes 1000% better than fleece sweaters. And it fits perfectly (XL for this 46 long guy is fine). Distinctive color combo is fun too. Highly recommended.

Weave seems a little thinner than the typical dense Dale fabric. It has a rubber logo instead of the embroidered one. The thumbholes are fun. I think this might work for a jacket on a cool day at best.
