Progress. It Isn't All Bad.

New York Subway strike of the late ‘70s. Bank presidents start wearing sneakers to work.

JFK goes hatless at his inauguration. Good-bye, hats.

Steve McQueen, Sean Connery, Bill Holden discard ties in favor of turtlenecks.

Some of it is progress. Now, marooned for a week in Paris or Osaka, this turtleneck sweater will keep you or me well dressed. Relaxed, but just a little dressy. (Both at the same time.) 55% silk, 45% cashmere. Pretty seductive stuff. Warm, but not heavy, not bulky.

Beautifully detailed and finished. Sleek 7" high ribbed turtleneck. Set-in sleeves. 4" ribbed cuffs. Good with blazers, old tweedy jackets, slacks, jeans. People expect to see a Walther PPK strapped over it, so you don't even need to bother.

Silk/Cashmere Turtleneck, sized for men (No. 1052) and women (No. 1236). Men's sizes: S, M, L, XL, XXL. Women's sizes: XS, S, M, L.

Colors: Black, Weathered Charcoal.
