Still looking for that perfect sweater? Well, it just showed up on eBay. This vintage (and supposedly rare) Brooks Brothers cable knit cricket/tennis sweater in wool has a starting bid of $99 and I can only imagine that number is going to go up quite a bit in the next 24 hours. This is an incredible sweater and even though it's made in Hong Kong, they really don't make 'em like this anymore - utterly perfect. A trad's dream? I'd like to think so. My apologies to anyone who was watching this with bated breath, but it was too good to pass up.

damn that's awesome
ReplyDeleteJudging by the label, this isn't particularly vintage. 15-20 years at most.
ReplyDeleteLook for a hand knitter. easy peasy for them, if you can find of course.
ReplyDelete20 years is vintage when it comes to clothing, dude
ReplyDeleteOooooo - love that. Wear it in good health!
ReplyDeleteWhat's so amazing about a cricket sweater? Is one woollen cricket sweater really that different from another? Especially for $100.
