Bean. I’ve bought several things for myself from these retailers and it’s pretty good quality although I can’t vouch for the quality of the men’s offerings. Good luck! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/seeking-brand-recommendations-for-mr-a#post-2345547 Mon, 27 Nov 2023 12:43:13 +0000 Helena 2345547@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My DH does well at Banana Republic. Lululemon might also be worth a look, the do some great smart casual stuff for men. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/seeking-brand-recommendations-for-mr-a#post-2345527 Mon, 27 Nov 2023 02:00:29 +0000 LaPed 2345527@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My recs for “plain” men’s knitwear would be Everlane, Woolovers and Pure Collection. All have been hits with my normcore/minimalist DH. Another fun thing to do is stalk TheRealReal for Eric Bompard cashmere — amazing quality, retail prices I can’t justify. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/seeking-brand-recommendations-for-mr-a#post-2345416 Sun, 26 Nov 2023 00:16:32 +0000 April 2345416@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all!&nbsp; I did order one (from Ralph Lauren but with no polo pony logo) so we'll see how it goes.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/seeking-brand-recommendations-for-mr-a#post-2345330 Fri, 24 Nov 2023 18:53:33 +0000 Jonesy 2345330@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have you looked at Todd Snyder? These are all wool (ETA one is a wool blend) or cashmere; they're having a sale today too.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/seeking-brand-recommendations-for-mr-a#post-2345323 Fri, 24 Nov 2023 18:03:33 +0000 Anonymous 2345323@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Does he wash sweaters in the washer and put everything in the dryer? If so some fabrics will shrink unless dry cleaned. Something to think about. Prana or REI or an outdoor store might be best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/seeking-brand-recommendations-for-mr-a#post-2345313 Fri, 24 Nov 2023 17:13:52 +0000 bj1111 2345313@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perhaps you can get him to wear loden? Hubs is as preppy as they come and I find lands end always a winner</p> <p>You could also go Uniqlo which has my favorite woolies or the row, Uniqlo for people with means </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/seeking-brand-recommendations-for-mr-a#post-2345307 Fri, 24 Nov 2023 16:00:50 +0000 Angie 2345307@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Vince, G-Star, Theory, COS, Boden and J.Crew </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/seeking-brand-recommendations-for-mr-a#post-2345304 Fri, 24 Nov 2023 15:30:42 +0000 cat2 2345304@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Vince makes nice modern menswear and doesn’t compromise on quality. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/seeking-brand-recommendations-for-mr-a#post-2345300 Fri, 24 Nov 2023 14:28:22 +0000 Irina 2345300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Depends on your budget.
