Happy things worked out, and thanks for sharing :)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-considering-for-greg/page/2#post-2334216 Thu, 10 Aug 2023 17:57:48 +0000 Eliza 2334216@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie- thanks to your input, tried the Zella Powertek hoodie for Mr E. He is 6’1, with a long torso, broad shoulders and 36/37 sleeve size- slim build. Happy to say it is a perfect fit. Can be tricky to accommodate torso/arm lengths while retaining a more tailored fit. Appreciate all of your detailed reviews. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-considering-for-greg/page/2#post-2331793 Sun, 23 Jul 2023 14:28:52 +0000 Angie 2331793@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, everyone!&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Suz</b>, ABSOLUTELY. There is plenty that does not work when we shop!</p> <p><b>Sharan</b>, did you get hubs the same Zella hoodie?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-considering-for-greg/page/2#post-2331775 Sun, 23 Jul 2023 03:19:12 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2331775@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks like a nice wardrobe refresh for him! My DH loves his new hoodie, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-considering-for-greg/page/2#post-2331771 Sun, 23 Jul 2023 02:05:31 +0000 Suz 2331771@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great haul for Greg, and I also appreciate hearing what does <b>not </b>work. It is always useful to remind oneself that shopping is just that -- shopping -- and there will inevitably be nos as well as yeses.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-considering-for-greg/page/2#post-2331754 Sat, 22 Jul 2023 22:57:44 +0000 Mokum girl 2331754@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My hubby rarely steps outside the box and dresses very conservative, mainly in the colour range of Greg. We have found the Uniqlo Marino sweaters to be work horses. Uniqlo in general has in our experience, been excellent for basics. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-considering-for-greg/page/2#post-2331744 Sat, 22 Jul 2023 22:02:59 +0000 Angie 2331744@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, Greg's happy colours :)&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Laura</b>, sorry to hear Andy's items were a bust Hopefully you can get to stores and have a look see. Good luck!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-considering-for-greg/page/2#post-2331739 Sat, 22 Jul 2023 21:14:13 +0000 Laura 2331739@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy to see Greg find some winners too! And in his favorite neutral palette!</p> <p>I ordered several things for Andy, but nothing worked, sadly! I really need to take him into the store. He's tall with most of his height in his legs and not his torso -- but he also has long arms. Plus he takes a size 12.5 shoe which doesn't really exist so Euro sizes are the best ... it's complicated </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-considering-for-greg/page/2#post-2331729 Sat, 22 Jul 2023 20:34:45 +0000 Angie 2331729@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><u>Last UPDATE:</u></p> <p>Greg had a great NAS!&nbsp;(Although none of the sneakers or jeans worked).</p> <p>The navy Vince cashmere pullover came and fits like a DREAM. Sleek but not clingy. Absolutely gorgeous quality, and perfect for the holidays :)</p> <p>This puffer is super fab value - runs a bit roomy - and is great with Greg's silver hair. Fab for doggie walks!</p> <p>Plus: 2 shirts, and 2 hoodies </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-considering-for-greg/page/2#post-2330769 Sun, 16 Jul 2023 22:15:17 +0000 Angie 2330769@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><u>Update: </u></p> <p>The All Saints sweatshirts are a disaster in terms of fit on Greg. Oversized and he feels sloppy. Fab look and quality though. Will work on someone much taller and bigger.&nbsp;</p> <p>The Rag &amp; Bone shirts are keepers! :)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-considering-for-greg/page/2#post-2330745 Sun, 16 Jul 2023 18:17:48 +0000 Joyce B 2330745@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Angie! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-considering-for-greg#post-2330744 Sun, 16 Jul 2023 18:17:05 +0000 Angie 2330744@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Try a large!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-considering-for-greg#post-2330739 Sun, 16 Jul 2023 17:41:33 +0000 Joyce B 2330739@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, I will check one out to see if it works, now I am even more interested He normally wears medium tall, should I order in medium or in large?<br /> From the picture of the model I am thinking it may be a bit short in the torso length but I will take a look at it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-considering-for-greg#post-2330734 Sun, 16 Jul 2023 15:31:06 +0000 Angie 2330734@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Joyce</b>, I can't keep the hoodies off Greg at this point..... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-considering-for-greg#post-2330597 Sat, 15 Jul 2023 17:13:41 +0000 Joyce B 2330597@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Angie </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-considering-for-greg#post-2330595 Sat, 15 Jul 2023 17:11:44 +0000 Angie 2330595@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not sure about a long torso <b>Joyce,</b> but Greg has long arms and broad shoulders, and there is plenty of sleeve length! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-considering-for-greg#post-2330593 Sat, 15 Jul 2023 16:43:30 +0000 Joyce B 2330593@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those hoodies look great, Angie.<br /> Do you think they would fit a tall size or would they be too short in length and sleeves? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-considering-for-greg#post-2330587 Sat, 15 Jul 2023 16:11:43 +0000 Angie 2330587@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Greg's Zella hoodies came, and they are OUTSTANDING.

He usually gets Crocs or sandals. And wears them out. The shoes I have bought him he never wears.. loafers or something a bit dressier. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-considering-for-greg#post-2329899 Tue, 11 Jul 2023 20:27:18 +0000 Anonymous 2329899@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>He does wear it and acts like he doesn’t care what he wears. I have not bought anything too casual for him like sweats or many tees. He seems to prefer polo shirts. I think he feels the Hawaiian shirts are a costume. I wish he would dress everyday in sweaters in winter. He runs warm. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-considering-for-greg#post-2329879 Tue, 11 Jul 2023 19:25:23 +0000 rachylou 2329879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the sneakers.

My style is very practical :)</p> <p><b>adamjameswest,</b>&nbsp;most of Greg's wardrobe is G-Star, actually! We know the other brands you're suggesting very well! We aren't finding what we want though. The hoodie hole in his wardrobe needs to be thin, come up high on the neck, and have a front zipper. Zella is what I am banking on for now. As for Nike and Adidas - he has those convered ;)&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Joy,</b> I'm not sure I understand, but would like to! DH does or doesn't wear what you buy for him?&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-considering-for-greg#post-2329740 Mon, 10 Jul 2023 15:23:53 +0000 Cee 2329740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The difference to Greg's " happy colours " and your's is his can't be seen from outer space, O Bright Cox. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-considering-for-greg#post-2329729 Mon, 10 Jul 2023 12:26:44 +0000 adamjameswest 2329729@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It sounds like Greg is on the hunt for some key wardrobe pieces. If he's looking for a lightweight hoodie, brands like G-Star and UNTUCKIT offer great options to explore. </p> <p>For dressy cashmere knitwear, he might want to check out brands like J.Crew or Everlane for high-quality options. When it comes to work shirts, UNTUCKIT might have some great finds in terms of length and fit. </p> <p>As for jeans, brands like Levi's or AG Jeans could be worth considering. And for a sweatshirt and fun sneakers, Greg might find cool options from brands like Nike or Adidas. </p> <p>It's great that he has some go-to brands, but exploring others can offer fresh styles and options. Keep us posted on Greg's finds and his happy color choices. </p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-considering-for-greg#post-2329661 Sun, 09 Jul 2023 17:57:14 +0000 Anonymous 2329661@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, Angie I wish DH would shop for what he wants. &nbsp;I bring home piles for him to try on, but he keeps it all. &nbsp;Most days I winter he wears dark jeans with a long sleeved tee in summer he wears cargo shorts and a tee or polo shirt with a collar, sometimes a Hawaii shirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-considering-for-greg#post-2329594 Sat, 08 Jul 2023 22:07:11 +0000 Angie 2329594@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Joy,</b>&nbsp;an over 75 year old can wear whatever makes them feel comfy and fab :)&nbsp; </p> <p>My late Dad was 89 and didn't wear hoodies and tees. He was simply dressier and stuck to shirts and sweaters with jeans and ECCO lace-ups. He never wore sporty items. Just not his style.&nbsp;</p> <p>My late FIL was 82 and LOVED wearing sporty clothing! He wore graphic tees, hoodies, jeans, shorts, and sneakers daily. His style. Rocked it!&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-im-considering-for-greg#post-2329568 Sat, 08 Jul 2023 15:48:24 +0000 Anonymous 2329568@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like your choices for Greg. Should an over 75 wear a hoodie? A graphic tee? </p>
