What to get depends on what you want - ply, style, etc. You won't get the same cuts at Land's End as you do at Barney's, most likely, thogh the Land's End might be sturdier. I've gotten some decent stuff from Saks that has held up well. BB has been hit-or-miss. As for Blue Fly, if you're at all hard to fit, I'd say no.
Blue Fly seems to specialize in xxxxsmall.

So what is the preferred ply? I know TSE is much higher quality.

Does Loro Piana, they have cashmere, correct?

Barneys sounds good. do the high end stores carry house brands? What about Bloomingdales for cashmere?

I have a Brooks Brothers v neck camel heather sweater.

Has anyone *tried* Charles Tyrwhitt or Thomas Pink cashmere?
