Men's leather wallet, 'Safeguard'

Donna

Jul 17, 2020

I well be using this for sometime, really like.

Product picture

I needed something like this (smaller)to keep my credit cards in. When I got my Wallet and opened it, I said to my self "This is what I have been looking for, Great!" Craft man ship is wonderful, leather is nice, just a wee bit tight sliding the cards in but that is leather for you, has to be broken in. The stitching is well done and zipper works like a dream. The color of leather is like what you see, like a medium olive green .

Men's wool sweater, 'Aran Islands Classic'

Yamini

Bought as a Gift

It was a gift and loved by the person gifted to. The wool quality was good but it will need something to be worn inside otherwise it can be very itchy. The knitting is exquisite.

Men's wool cardigan sweater, 'Aran Legacy'

Richard

Dec 26, 2011

Very well made in Ireland; a classic!

Product picture

This is a classic sweater in the button up cardigan style, made in Ireland by Carraig Donn, a highly regarded maker of Aran sweaters and other wool garments. It's highly versatile: It can be worn with a dress shirt and tie in all but formal business environments, yet it looks equally good with a black T-shirt and jeans. The sweater is 100% wool. As such, it has the best properties of wool, such as warmth and moisture-wicking. I find it ideal for use in the 35-55 degree Farenheit range, with no jacket on top of the sweater. (For lower temperatures, a jacket over it would work fine). Note that it does not have any man-made fibers such as acrylic or nylon; some makers make their sweaters with 10-20% of these fibers to lower costs, but they also can have the advantage of adding strength or helping a sweater keep its form. Bottom line: Very high quality, made with nothing but pure new wool -- but you do have to treat it nicely (dry cleaning is best, as is keeping it folded and away from moths!) The only (minor) negatives about this item are: Because it's 100% new wool, it is a bit itchy against exposed skin - but not a problem at all so long as you wear long sleeves underneath. Also, the buttoms are resin. Hardwood would make it a real classic, but also much more expensive and the resin buttons are almost indistinguishable from hardwood unless you examine them closely. All in all, a very nice item that you won't easily find unless you travel to Ireland. It's worth the price, as it will probably last 10 or 15 years if you take care of it.
