An evaluation and discussion of what a modern classic wardrobe should consist, with focus on quality and considerations of cost and availability. Wednesday, August 4, 2010. The Norwegian Fisherman’s Sweater. This sweater is one of the icons of L.L. Bean, and I am pleased to announce that they have recently returned it to their catalogue.

Pocket Squares vs. Handkerchiefs. Today, however, I must apologize because I am going to "kick it old school" for awhile. What do you put in the breast pocket of your suit?
