When it comes to dressing himself, Brad Bennett, who's behind the men's eco-fashion site Commerce With a Conscience, admits to being a creature of habit. "I have a penchant for uniforms—outfits I wear over and over—and tend to only buy from the same small handful of brands," the Brooklyn-raised Chicagoan tells Ecouterre. Roughly 70 percent of Bennett's wardrobe is vintage or secondhand. The rest? A mix of custom-made and new off-the-rack pieces. "I'm happiest in oxford cloth shirts, selvedge jeans, waxed-cotton outerwear, and American-made wingtips," he says. "All those things only get better with age."

The sweater looks great. If you don’t mind me asking, what size did you buy? I hear they run really large. I’m thinking for buying one as a Christmas gift for a man who is about 6’1″ and 165 pounds. I am torn between a small & a medium. I would love to know how this fits you!
Thanks
