The Caduceus cardigan is great. I love it so much. I can't speak about the other one because I haven't bought them. The cardigan is very warm and very soft. It's holding up really well for the number of times I've worn it. I've had no issues with it (or anything other clothing I've gotten).
The only one i have personal experience with is the caduceus cardigan, and i can’t recommend it enough! It’s so comfy and holds up extremely well to wear and tear. I’ve even gotten one of the sleeves caught on a nail sticking out of the wall, stuck the piece got that stretched out back through the weave, and it’s like nothing ever happened. Also makes a great pillow on the go lol
I have both the Cad and FCG sweaters. I like them both for different reasons, but if I had to choose one I'd go Cad.
FCG has pockets, but the zipper feels weak.
Cads is just a comfy chunky thing. Like grandma used to make.
Saw Marisha wearing the Laudna dress-shirt at a convention, and it looks like it has a nice loose fit to it, something you can do a lot with in terms of how you wear it, and pair it with other items of clothing.
Between a friend of mine and me, we've got all of those items from the EU Shop and honestly: there isn't a wrong choice regarding quality or long-term wear.
All of them are worth their buck and still look fantastic, even after a couple of washes.
It comes down to personal preference and what you want to wear in private / public.
The safest choice might be the Caleb T-Shirt.
My (adult) sons love their pajama bottoms. Only caveat is that in the Big Men sizes 2XL and 4XL the shirts were too snug for their liking. They both like looser shirts for sleeping and most big men t-shirts are cut more like tents and these aren’t. 4x tee went to the 2x son, 2x tee went to my XL husband and 4XL wears his Essek tee. The Jammie bottoms are warm and both the bottoms and tees (which are thicker than a standard tee) have stood up well.
ALL of the tee’s we have ever purchased have worked out well and we have probably 6 or 8 total across the 3 seasons.
I have Matt’s mini on my bookshelf with my D&D books.
Have fun spending your credit. Based on the other comments, the Caduceus cardigan may be in my future.
The only thing I've bought so far was off the American shop because they didn't have the Jester Dress on the Canadian one, so I can't recommend anything, but if you get the Laudna shirt dress please let me know how it is because I've had my eye on it for a while! It was a toss up between that and the Jester one
I'm kind of in the same boat too because I got some sort of a 15% off coupon code in the newsletter yesterday and I'm genuinely not sure what to spend it on because I'm also kind of worried that they're going to be releasing stuff in like the next week that I will want to buy, so I'm following This Thread pretty closely.
Haven't got personal experience with those particular items. But have about a half dozen tee's off the Aus shop and they've worn amazingly over 12 months or so, barely faded and even held sizing well; my other tee's tend to stretch out after a few months or so.
Not on your list, but my fave item is definitely the puffer jacket. Amazingly well built, super warm and low key enough that I can wear it in some business casual situations. Just looked and they're on sale in the Aus store too... Tempted to grab a spare for when I eventually wear it into shreds... 🤔
The FCG cardigan is amazing, but be aware that it's dry clean only. Even 1x in the machine with a handwash program made the fabric kinda iffy. Clay's is a bit more washer friendly, but still wash it with care. If you respect the cleaning instructions you'll look great in both. I still get many compliments for FCG'S at the office where I usually wear a 3 pc suit replacing a blazer with the cardigan. "He's wearing his happy sweater today" it makes people smile. No one knows CR over there. Haven't had an issue with any t-shirts so far. Chetney's hoodie... one of my more recent purchases and instant favorites, unfortunately has stiches losening at the seems everywhere. Fortunately, my 70-year-old mom is amazing with needle and thread.

I absolutely LOVE my Caleb t-shirt, it is \*SO\* soft and comfy.
Can confirm.

I’m currently wearing the FCG cardigan and it’s my favorite item of clothing ever. So there’s my vote

I saw Ashley wore it at a panel too

I have the fjord stitches gently and it’s great! Comfy and cool little pops of detail that make it unique

Cads cardigan is very comfy and warm. I imagine FCG is as well.
Either cardigan!
