It is expensive but the quality is fantastic and the styling is cool - no big logos or advertising and subtle colours.
The jerseys are a merino mix which is ultra soft and comfy - the merino LS jersey is luxurious and stylish.
I currently live in New Zealand where the merino sheep grow and i'm addicted to the stuff!
This is good info.
This is the one my wife bought me for my birthday.

I wouldn't have the fiscal "guts" to order this on my own.
I usually pick up Merino wool outer sweaters for a song at a local second hand shop. $20 max for a nice used one is at the top end of the pricing scale for me.
Found one for $2, as it had a loose stitch under the arm.
Restitched it quickly with some thread I keep in my fishing vest, and I am good to go.
