100% alpaca pullover sweater, 'Modern Geometry'

Susan L Sellers

This sweater exceeded all expectations !!!

I just received my “ modern geometry “ black & turquoise sweater yesterday and actually wore it today to see how I liked it. Very soft, very light, very attractive, I wanted an attractive sweater that was not bulky and that I would be comfortable enough in that I could wear over a shirt inside when the temperature is cooler and more chilly generally, as it has become today , luckily enough for me. I don’t usually wear a crewneck, but in this case for this purpose & design it is very useful and not restricting . All of my jewelry goes so well with this ensemble, that although the look is spiffy and neat & almost preppy, it is wildly bohemian when dressed up with embellishments. A real winner for warmth , comfort & style ! Very pleased.

Stylish, soft and warm

Very stylish and warm. Like the color combination and the knit pattern. Size is very generous and it wouldn’t shrink with proper washing. Great sweater for spring, fall and winter. Overall very happy with the purchase.

Men's cotton oilskin vest, 'Outback'

Mark

Jan 13, 2018

NOVICA is tops again!

Once again, the catalog has introduced me to a top-notch product. Oilskin is heavy and smells of oil and wax when new, so be aware. (The smell is very temporary and inoffensive.) This is a sign that it is correctly made. And you can't put it in the washing machine, although cleaning is actually easy, and instructions are included. Attention to detail, heavy duty components (snaps and zipper) and versatile pockets are exactly as described. If this sounds like something you want...it probably is (and it's well worth it). You'll probably like the collar and liner, too. I am very satisfied.
