The Downsides of (wool) Sweaters
- They stretch
- They pile
- They’re difficult to wash
- They have questionable environmental consequences (e.g. desertification in China)
- Moths sometimes eat them
The Upsides of (wool) Sweaters
- Profound warmth
- They continue to insulate when wet
- Sweaters are super breathable making them great for skiing, hiking, and bike commuting
- Naturally antimicrobial, i.e., they don’t stink!
- You can often get smoking deals on them at thriftstores
- Pendleton 😍
- they can pass for business casual
