What customers say:

The silk turtleneck is a lightweight and warm base layer that customers find comfortable and luxurious. Many praise its layering capabilities and ability to prevent itchiness from wool. However, some express concerns about the material's sheerness and durability, with a few noting the product has become more expensive over time. Overall, the turtleneck is a popular cold-weather option, though a minority of customers were dissatisfied with the quality or value.

I am disappointed that the turtle is so very sheer. I would be embarrassed to wear it without something over it.

Size Purchased: X-Large

This silk turtleneck shirt is exactly what I needed and wanted. It’s light weight, warm, and silky so all the other layers just slip over it.
