    Great deal on 100% wool sweaters at EMS

    I found these great officers sweaters at www.ems.com. they are 100% wool, roomy and VERY warm! they also look great with a kilt! I have the olive green and navy blue ones.

    best thing is, they are only $19.98 each!!!!

    here is the link:

    fyi - keep in mind they seem to run big. The sleeves on an XL run almost to my fingertips...

    How are they for length? I am 6'4 and I had a hard time finding shirts and sweaters that are a comfortable fit length wise without being huge up top.

    I tried to edit my last post, but to no avail.

    I'm 6'3, and the length on the XL is a bit long for me ( the sweather untucked falls about where the bottom of a kilt's fell would be), should be fine for someone a bit taller. I am going to order a couple in Large tonight, and I'll post pics when I get them in.

    It is definitely post Christmas clothing clearance sale time.

    Got another of the house brand twill shirts at Kohl's for $14.

    Picked up two lighter weight crew neck sweaters at the Gap for $15 each.

    Life is good.

    Only problem is that I didn't hop on the LL Bean commando sweaters while they still had my size in colors that I wanted. I'm sure that they'll restock but I better cool it on the clothes for a while...

    It's always very fufilling to find nice stuff on DEEP sale!

    Best

    Thanks again for the link KT, I just ordered a black and a midnight. They were out of XL, but I am sure the XXL will fit with layers. Plus the price is now down to $14.98 US.
