A lightweight piece is still a great addition when the mercury drops because layers are so much more versatile than heavy, cumbersome items. This one would feel great, over a T-shirt, with its cotton and silk construction, and a heavier coat when needed.

Words

Turtle necks are a very divisive part of menswear, and for good reason. Most people buy them in the hope of looking like an extra in a Wes Anderson film, but end up looking more like an extra in a 70s anti-drug PSA. That's why this shirt from .efiLevol is perfect, it gives you the opportunity to potentially try out a new look, while retaining the option to unbutton back into your comfort zone.
