A grey cardigan isn't anything new, there's plenty of different options out there and especially at this time of the year. But an interesting one like this is one of those pieces that's never to be found when you're actually looking for one. We probably say it too much, but it's all in the details. The darker melange grey lambswool is a pretty basic colour, but the perfectly sized orange leather buttons make it something more. A tab collar isn't something that you see on a sweater very often and while it looks a bit off buttoned up here, once you've got it on and have it undone the brown leather combined with the shawl collar it wouldn't look out of place at all. The slightly tapered ribbed cuffs and waist mean the sweater is going to keep its shape nicely. What really makes it for me though is the unstitched pockets that have a nice casual roll to them, that and the size and placement of them is ideal.

dope and yea when buttoned up it looks off, i think if it were an inch or lower maybe right below the v-neck it would look nice strapped up.
Alright, I need some guidance on how to go about purchasing Journal Standard gear. StyleCruise does me no good, since it's impossible to get any further than placing the item in the cart. I get totally lost when trying to pay for the item. Any help out there for this? Thanks
