Military 'woolly pully' sweaters

Machine wash on wool program at 30C here.

By the way, now both stink like hell so I’m going to trash them later today...

That’s really bad luck. You should send them back and ask for replacements!

On second thoughts, dry cleaning would get rid of the smell and then when you wear them a few times they will acquire a natural odour (or odor in US English).

Too late, now the Red Cross has the problem...

I’ll book this to experience...

I’m really sorry this has happened and hope it won’t put you off OK.

... put you off OK.

That exactly is the experience...

I’m very surprised as I’ve never had this or heard of it from anyone else. I hope you’re going to tell them about it. They will probably offer you a refund and a replacement.

Searching for product reviews in the net i found a review at Mr.Bezos shop claiming the same issue, just didn’t believe it.

In fact this Welbeck has been by very far the most pungently, chemically stinking piece of clothing I ever held in hands, skinning my face stripewise only holding my nose over it...

Had a solid base of mineral oil with a crescendoing center all on screen printing paint and an intense head note of plastic softener with a splash of mothballs...

May have possibly been a Monday-piece but there will for sure not happen a second try on my shelf...

As I said, I am really surprised by this and wish you’d tell OK that in this instance they’re ‘not Okay’ (sorry!).

 

[Turnip]

Naaa, it’s all OK, don’t mind...

On a much happier note, I have received the Navy sub sweater I ordered from
Peter Christian, which matches the ecru OK sub I’ve had for years but surpasses OK in the fit and the length of the turn back cuffs. It’s love at first sight! Too warm to wear it yet but I can’t wait. I’ll post some photos when I get a spare moment but probably on the fishermen’s sweaters thread.

Ordered a Last year’s Boss Akromiz at half price as a tryout replacement.

In case this should not be sufficient I’ll take a RYMHART instead, what should last longer than than me then...

Cheers

Sorry I did not see your post above. My fault.

I had 3 sweaters in my cart....but do I REALLY need them ? I don't and I plan to move soon anyway but it was tempting.

Are you moving to a different part of the US?

I am sorry to see that you had problems with the OK sweaters, I have always found them to be excellent. You should complain to them.
I tend to wash mine by hand in Persil Silk & Wool, then dry them supported on an outside washing line, they come up fine and smell very fresh indeed.
