It perks up the unrelenting darkness that is most men’s closets, and throws off a nice retina-warming coziness–which, if next winter is anything like this one, will be very welcome. Sometimes it’s a sherbet-y soft, sometimes it tilts toward scarlet, but most often it’s straight-on safety vest. Click through to see the representative spectrum.
