    Military 'woolly pully' sweaters

    This thread is a bit quiet. I hope you are all enjoying WP season, which I am happy to say is still going strong here.

    Guernsey jumper

    There still are fishermen’s sweaters known as Ganseys. I had one as a teenager. However I always preferred Guernseys: my first of those was when I was seven and I have worn them ever since. I was born in the mid-60s.

    Indeed. I have worn my Le Tric Navy several times over the past week, turn back cuffs and all! You made a good choice.

    Guernsey jumper

    I think you’re right. My Guernsey Woollens jumpers are quite old. I also prefer the Le Tric design, partly because of the longer turn-back cuffs; I have a bit of a turn-back cuffs fetish I think! May I ask you what colour you chose?

    Guernsey jumper

    Interesting. As I mentioned I have both Le Tric and Guernsey Woollens versions of the Guernsey and I have not found any differences of quality between them over the years. What decision did you make about your purchase?

    Guernsey jumper

    I have Guernseys supplied by both firms and can find no appreciable difference between them. Le Tric are an older firm, their fit is perhaps a bit tighter and their turn-back cuffs are longer.

    I love the cold weather and Woolly Pullies are the icing on the cake.

    Military 'woolly pully' sweaters

    I have one in that colour but haven’t dug it out this season - I must do so. My go-to WP has been Navy lately.

    White RAF Roll Neck Sweaters

    I still think you are much safer with the S!

    White RAF Roll Neck Sweaters

    The Small does look a more comfortable fit; it also allows for a bit of growth over the festive season! I vote for the S

    Military 'woolly pully' sweaters

    I am happy to say that we are very much into WP season this side of the Pond. I have worn a WP every day this week.

    Military 'woolly pully' sweaters

    Hi John The Brigadier was always my favourite character in the 1970s Dr Who series (when I was a schoolboy). Funnily enough it was the time I first started wearing WPs and I have been doing so ever since. I'm pleased to hear that it is Fall in PA. Over here it is indeed WP weather and I am...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    New Mexico is very high on my list of US States to visit (I have so far been on the East and West Coasts but nowhere else in your country). I shall bring my Commando Sweater - or rather one or two of them, as I have not just the olive but the Navy and many other colours!

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I love it! I have the Commando Sweater (or Woolly Pully) but tell me about the very all-American jacket and I’ll see if I can get something like it here in London.

    Fishermen's sweaters site

    It is the exact same sweater - and I see it’s available in both Ecru and Navy. If ordering from Belgium is more convenient for you, you should certainly go for it!

    Outdoor Knitwear’s ‘The Submariner’ would suit you. Mine is not too thick but very comfortable. They are available in Ecru, Navy (which mine is) and Black.

    Have any of your sports interest revived in recent years?

    That’s a really great story and heartening as well. Thank you for sharing it. Borussia Mönchengladbach are a great team, by the way. 6th in Bundesliga currently.
