Would the Navy Outdoorknitwear version approximate the blue sweater worn by the RAF in WWII?
I know they wore the "ecru" color but have seen some photos with blue as well...
Is this close?
Thanks!
Anyone know how their sizes run?
I am a 50 Long (US Size) and am trying to figure out if I should order the XL (50) or XXL (54).
I usually like a roomy sweater and, with my ape arms, a lot of standard 50 sizes end up halfway up my arms...but I don't want to wear a sack either.
I wouldn't usually be this anal but returning to England for a different size can be expensive.

Just ordered the blue version from outdoorknitwear in my actual size of 50 (US)...I let everyone know how it goes.
Hi Chaps,
Just received my Submariner sweater from Outdoorknitwear and I'm very impressed by it. Nice durable wool, very well put together, and from reading through the thread it seems to have all of the correct features - reinforced shoulder, deep cuffs and welt etc.
However, I'm a little concerned about the fit of the sleeves and wondered if they're meant to be so short?
I'm in between their small(38") and medium (42") and wanted to have a snug fit to wear under a bike jacket, but do you think it's too small? Or is this how they're cut?
Your thoughts would be most welcome.
Thanks

Thanks Steve,
It's a really nice jumper and I love the tight fit of the body, but you're right, if it shrank in the wash the sleeves would be halfway up my arm! I'll call them today to see what they reckon. I wish they did a 40"...
