This sweater is dense, heavy, and warm, and somehow the wool is still flexible and soft. The turtle collar is soft against your neck - I don't have to wear an unde-rlayer that goes up that high. It's still wool, though, so if your skin is really sensitive, you might have to. The wool isn't super thick, it's just knit very densely. It's a really solid, satisfying-feeling sweater. The texture pattern is also unique and subtle and really cool. I have the natural white color, and it looks a little lighter in real life than it looks in the pics online. It's not quite white, but it's by far the brightest shade of off-white out of several off-white and ecru sweaters that I have. I'm just a hair short of 6'4" and 195 lbs with long torso and arms, and size Large fits great. The sleeves come down to the heel of my hand (and the cuffs are already folded over, so I could make them a little longer even if I needed to). The bottom of the sweater goes down just a couple inches below the top of my pants. It's not a long sweater that hangs way down, it's a little shorter, fisherman style. Most of the other sweaters this company makes ARE pretty long, though. I guess they gotta fit those tall Danish dudes. I have a few sweaters made by these guys, and they're all pretty great.
