Ha! 'All because the lady loves...'
On topic:
I did find some saddle-shouldered shets at TK Maxx recently, their own 'Marcus Law' brand. Always worth a look.
Slightly off topic:
Merino gets the most wear now I find. Fits under any jacket and always looks smart.
I have a H&M hunter green merino rollneck in 'S' if anyone wants it for the price of a stamp - worn abou twice in two years, it makes me look very sallow.
Always handy if you have a geography class to teach, eh Moosey!

I do know the Brooks one I'm wearing just now has very little in common with the shetlands of my childhood.
One assumes that the good sheep of the Shetland Isles never had the good sense to secure the rights to the 'Shetland' name. The Hobbits of Harris have clearly displayed far better business acumen.

Too much to handle really...17 quid for a shetland crew?
Worth doing a 'search' on them here - they used to get mentioned quite a bit. Ordering from them was a problem.
