Basic turtleneck -- where to find ?

Julie_23 — Thu, 01 Dec 2016 04:52:55 GMT

Hi everybody,

I'm looking for a basic turtleneck to wear under sweaters or tops that doesn't have an overly small and tight neck to it. Not a mock neck or cowl neck, just a basic turtleneck, but a comfortable one that has some room to it.

Any suggestions on where to find one? Or, a specific brand that you recommend?

Thanks for any ideas.

Microfiber or cotton? The kind you layer with?

Good question -- I didn't think about that! I guess something that is thinner and any material is fine as long as it's comfortable. I'm not going for "warmth" -- just something to wear under a top or sweater.

@Julie_23
I forget whether it was Anthony or Slinky (hsn) but one of those brands had a 2 pack of basic turtlenecks for around $50. I can't speak to Anthony, I've never tried any, but I've had good luck with slinky

Cuddleduds has a nice layering turtleneck. It's called Softwear. I wear them all winter under other sweaters and even under sweatshirts. They are light but offer a nice layering option without bulk.

You can find them in JC Penney, Kohls, Bon Ton.

I used to work nights in labor and delivery and I always got cold even with a scrub jacket. I bought 100% cotton turtlenecks from Eddie Bauer, LLBean and Lands End. I wore them under my scrubs. All three places sold exactly what I needed. The neck was just right and was a true turtleneck. Eddie Bauer had a higher priced one that I loved. It was a silky looking and feeling cotton and was just perfect. Good luck!

The Anthony's are sleeveless and mock but I'm actually considering them for myself LOL

Definately L L Bean, Eddie Bauer, and Talbots. Those will be good quality and I know a lot of the ladies use these sites and I've recently seen them in a catalog. Lola really likes these companies and they fit properly.

Just saw turtlenecks at Costco by Nautica that have a really generous neck.

Lands' End and Eddie Bauer--Lands' End usually has better end of year sales on them. But, colors are then limited.

I buy mine from Lands' End usually-less expensive on sales.

I found a beautiful turtleneck at JC Penney this past weekend. On sale for $9.99. I bought an ivory one, but regret not getting the navy also. It is fine gauge and will be great for layering.

Target's Merona brand. They don't make you feel like you are choking, are lightweight and have short (elbow length) sleeves.
