J. Peterman Nantucket Sweater Sz XS in Grey Minimalist Capsule Wardrobe

If you know anything about the J. Peterman brand (or have ever watched Seinfeld) you know they are known for their quirky product descriptions. This Nantucket sweater is minimalist perfection.

I'd say it's got another 19 years in it. Nantucket Sweater (No. 6543). Just located somebody to duplicate it; same uncomplicated cotton. Same fresh sea smell. Same odd construction, same mood as the original. Made without shortcuts. People often ask me where I got it. They're probably going to ask you too.
