Brand Behind Steve Jobs' Iconic Turtleneck Plans New Edition Coming in July for $270

wow, I didn't realize turtlenecks were that expensive.

It's like the "everyman's" turtleneck!

Why the price is a big deal here? Almost all fashion houses have that kind of price. It's not for everyone.

Forget the turtleneck, just get right to the $599.99 replica burial shroud. You know, the Shroud of Cupertino....

So where can I buy the mock-neck of similar quality and design for, say, 15 or 20 bucks? Anyone? Anyone? Dead serious.

Land's End. Less than $25.

Decided to go see what else they offered, and was NOT disappointed, albeit a bit surprised they ever made that turtleneck given their other clothes.

Here's their 2017 Men's Look Book... http://www.isseymiyake.com/brand/pdf/ME_2017ss.pdf

I like to imagine Jobs giving a keynote in something like No. 4 or No. 31, had he chosen differently while in their store.

If they made 4 or 7 for women, I'd consider it.

Yeah, I'm used to paying through the nose for good turtlenecks, but not $270 for one.

Holy crap! I wore a shirt just like that to a job interview.
/did not get job

I wore the same shirt to court to argue a ticket.
/ended up with two Stupid judge. She had no sense of humor.

The very last time I wore that shirt was to a lady's night at a local bar
/met my ex-wife - she thought it was cute.

Moral of the story... If you're going to wear a "I love big ol' booty" shirt, make sure it's not yellow. It's bad luck.

I found that pretty funny. Thanks!
