At home, I'll use hot water bottles and/or an extra fleece throw/blanket just wrapped around my feet in addition to the socks. When camping, I'll often use chemical handwarmer packets stuffed inside...

Tax return + Ibex winter sale = :eek:

Waiting for my thistle heather Shak hoody. And, um, the Mollie jacket. And, um, some undies. Whups. :o

I've also had problems with chronic hives as well as dermatographism. After eliminating all of the skincare/detergents, I ended up tracking my food intake and narrowed it down to a few culprits. The...

What kind of laundry detergent are you using? It might not be the wool.

But it would really suck if it were. You would have to give all of your wool to us. (So what size are ya? :p )

I trim my (indoor only) kitty's claws to save my wool clothing. :)

Yeah, I don't bike in weather that cold anyways! :o

Oh yes, I love Manzellas too. My favorites are the thin silkweight ones. I trashed my last pair backpacking in Iceland (they did not hold up...

I've been on the quest for the perfect winter glove for a long time. I really like a lot of the Ibex gloves but they simply don't have anything beyond lightly weather-resistant soft shells. Unless...

That's really good to know, since I have a short and stout neck. Not my favorite feature about myself!

OMC is great. Unfortunately for us locals they've pared down their storefront significantly and are moving to a mostly online business. I know it's working well for them but I miss being able to go...

I had not noticed that! I wasn't quite as sad about that one, but they'd better not discontinue the 3/4 Long Janes. Those are, hands down, my favorite long underwear bottoms. Damn, this makes me want...

Very interesting. I'm still pissed about the Roasters, and will be wearing mine until they die. :mad:

Maybe Knotted's polywoollenous? :D

Ahhhh! SAC is trying to bankrupt us! :eek:

Whole buncha lightweight smartwool zipneck tops are there right now, all light blue, all sizes. :D

Yes! I picked up a bunch of knee-high ski socks and two smartwool shirts. It was a rough day on the pocketbook. :)

I tend to agree about wet wool not really helping retain warmth, unless you've got enough thick layers of it. Synthetic fleeces do that for me. My usual winter skiing layers are wool next to skin,...

OMG, Lisa, I just love you! :D

Sadly it was a rather dull splotch of brown mildly resembling Madagascar. Thankfully it's almost gone, it can only be seen if I'm looking for it now.

Sadly, yes. I was travelling while on my period. I didn't have the chance to wash out some blood-soaked panties, and ended up accidentally packing them up in a clothes bag next to a lavender :eek:...

Icebreaker SuperFine190 Saturn Skirt - Women's skirt on SAC right now. :)

Eeeeee! I saw this last night too. OMG whoops Space Blue in my shopping basket clickety-click oopsie. :D

SAC Alert: Ibex Organic Puzzle Sweater, in Amethyst and Brown, various sizes.

A whole passel of Swobo longsleeve jerseys are on SteepAndCheap right now. Are they any good? I haven't tried any Swobo stuff yet. :)

And it's back again, right now! :D

Mmhmm... I just pounced on one of those Plum Norgies last night! Eee! :D

I also just returned the Alyx jacket I bought on Ibex's winter sale. I kept trying to love it but the fact is it's built...

My personal preference would be to handle the issue of the dirty Pingo separately via email, as it is most likely an isolated incident. Then do a real review discussing the pros/cons of the jacket in...

Ward?!?! :p

Agreed! I'm often between M and L and I went with size M for the hooded shak. I really like the more sleek/snug fit of it. The Medium hooded shak is just slightly snugger than the Medium halfzip...
