I bought this as a gift because my friend was raving about one I got her 2 years ago and said she was planning on getting a brown one. I have about 4 of them. They are great because they are flattering, not too warm, just warm enough, and they don't pill. They also come in the colors I like, white, cream, brown and black. Actually I like the men's colors better so I hope they make some for women in the men's colors. Not all women like those pinks and plums. I am an outdoor woman and I like outdoorsy type colors. They are great for golf, cross country skiing, layering for every sport, wearing with a vest.
