Is there anything wrong with a serious bachur or yungerman wearing a (black, blue) sweater? It seems that it is not accepted in many communities/yeshivos…
March 5, 2017 11:16 pm at 11:16 pm #1222167Moshe1994ParticipantWait another week before asking this question it’s not Purim yet…(No there is nothing wrong with wearing a blue sweater)
March 6, 2017 1:01 am at 1:01 am #1222168LightbriteParticipantA serious bachur knows better than to dress like he is bruised
March 6, 2017 1:43 am at 1:43 am #1222169YesOrNoParticipantLightbrite: well said!!!
March 6, 2017 1:50 am at 1:50 am #1222170LightbriteParticipantYesOrNo: Thanks 🙂
March 6, 2017 1:59 am at 1:59 am #1222171FriendInFlatbushParticipantNo. Find something else to complain about.
March 6, 2017 2:11 am at 2:11 am #1222172LightbriteParticipantFriendInFlatbush: Hey now hey now…
Maybe sheldy is a serious bachur and wants to know if it’s acceptable for him to wear sweaters in bruise-toned colors.
March 6, 2017 2:13 am at 2:13 am #1222173👑RebYidd23ParticipantI believe it is okay to wear sweaters. Sweaters help keep warm when indoors or if it’s too warm outside to wear a coat but you’re still cold.
March 6, 2017 2:16 am at 2:16 am #1222174golferParticipantA black or blue sweater!!!
What can possibly be next???
Pink and orange striped socks???
March 6, 2017 2:17 am at 2:17 am #1222175👑RebYidd23ParticipantI need an explanation.
March 6, 2017 2:17 am at 2:17 am #1222176WolfishMusingsParticipantIt seems that it is not accepted in many communities/yeshivos…
You mean that in some communities it’s accepted for bachurim to be cold for no reason?

March 6, 2017 2:17 am at 2:17 am #1222177Lilmod UlelamaidParticipantWhy, you have a problem with that, Golfer? What do you think I’m wearing right now? (j/k).
March 6, 2017 2:33 am at 2:33 am #1222178LightbriteParticipantDid you know that fleece is warmer than sweaters?
It’s also synthetic so may make for hot flashes when going indoors in flashes
March 6, 2017 5:50 pm at 5:50 pm #1222179BigGolemParticipanta serious bachur wearing a sweater is no doubt the greatest threat facing the klall. There should be mandatory attendance asifas to address it. Community resources must be committed to resolve it.
March 6, 2017 6:06 pm at 6:06 pm #1222180funnyboneParticipantWe all have our styles and dress codes. I’m not aware that typically bochurim don’t wear sweaters, but if in your community they don’t you have three choices:
1. Follow the crowd.
2. Do as you please and not care about the crowd.
3. Move and find a crowd whose styles align with yours.
March 6, 2017 8:06 pm at 8:06 pm #1222181akupermaParticipantBy “sweaters” do you mean:
1. Solid black (or white, dark blue or grey), either a sweater vest or a cardigan (with buttons) or long-sleeve pullover (usually enough of a V-neck for a tie)-preferably matching or coordinated with pants and jacket
2. Something colorful, with a picture or design on it.
I have frequently seen people (including myself, in a mirror) wearing the former, including under a kapote or beckeshe or suit jacket – and I have never seen Bnei Torah wearing the latter
March 6, 2017 8:07 pm at 8:07 pm #1222182LightbriteParticipant4. Give everyone a sweater with his name on it.
His FULL name.
March 6, 2017 9:25 pm at 9:25 pm #1222183HashemisreadingParticipantand contact info!!
March 6, 2017 9:29 pm at 9:29 pm #1222184LightbriteParticipantPerfect idea Hashemisreading ~ Even if he tries to give the sweater away, someone will just send it back to him!
March 6, 2017 9:31 pm at 9:31 pm #1222185LightbriteParticipant“2. Something colorful, with a picture or design on it.”
akuperma: That’s not a sweater. That was my Mother’s Day gift!

March 6, 2017 11:22 pm at 11:22 pm #1222187Lilmod UlelamaidParticipantWell it is a good topic of discussion for the CR as it is a lot less likely to lead to LH, MSR, onaas devarim, and machlokes than topics such as zionism; definitions of MO, Chareidi, & OTD; Trump & Clinton; drinking on Purim, etc.
Although I’m sure if someone really wnats to they can find a way.
March 7, 2017 12:06 am at 12:06 am #1222188zahavasdadParticipantLU
Some people think change of Lvush is the road to OTD
March 7, 2017 12:38 am at 12:38 am #1222189Lilmod UlelamaidParticipantSo far no one here seems to think so.
And it’s pretty rare for everyone in the CR to agree on something.
March 7, 2017 12:44 am at 12:44 am #1222190LightbriteParticipantDunno if we are a representative sample of everyone in the CR.
But I do know that knitting sweaters is a great way to keep your hands busy.
March 7, 2017 4:10 am at 4:10 am #1222191yehudayonaParticipantLB, it’s less controversial than crocheting kippot serugot.
March 7, 2017 6:49 am at 6:49 am #1222192LightbriteParticipantYY: Agreed. A+++
March 7, 2017 2:06 pm at 2:06 pm #1222193nishtdayngesheftParticipantWhat an inane thread.
Starts off with an assumption that is not based in reality. Certainly not if you are referring to chareidi yeshivas.
Everyone knows that anyone who learnt in Brisk wears a sweater. They all do. And when I was recently visiting Eretz Yisroel, I lead in the Mir and saw many bochurim and yungeleit wearing sweaters.
I guess it is +1 for silly people who think this really happens. (Sarcasm).
March 7, 2017 2:08 pm at 2:08 pm #1222194LightbriteParticipantWhen you wear black sweaters, little fuzzies are more noticeable.
Do they have those lint removers at the yeshiva?
March 7, 2017 4:22 pm at 4:22 pm #1222195Lilmod UlelamaidParticipantnishtdayngesheft, I don’t notice boys’ clothing. Barely notice girls’ clothing. Much more important things in life to focus on!
March 7, 2017 4:58 pm at 4:58 pm #1222196apushatayidParticipantsweaters in 90 degrees is a bad idea.
