    Ibex Wool Tight: ON SALE!

    Hey, all you looking for wool tights and winter tights! Ibex's wool running tight is on sale!

    http://www.ibexwear.com/F06/View_Pro...&CategoryLine=

    No zippers or pockets, no chamois. Cheaper than the heavyweight long jane I was planning to get someday. Oh, dear, I might have to break out the credit card... This would be so nice over bike shorts, and as long underwear, and for running. (Not that I run much with my grumpy knee, but I have to justify buying myself something when I SHOULD be buying xmas presents! <for other people>)

    I waaaaant these tights. But what I really neeeeeeed is a new pair of running shoes. http://www.brooksrunning.com/prod.ph...680&p=BSI42154

    My old running pants are too big now. i should just buy another pair of cheap running pants (a bit more flattering than tights).

    but I waaaaaant Ibex wool!

    Running pants can be worn in public. Tights I would only wear on the bike or running.

    Must control self.

    Must check TE for sales.

    Must find lost TE gift certificate. (darn middle-aged brain, anyway!)

    Ooh. loook, they come in long! http://www.teamestrogen.com/products.asp?pID=22010 but they cost the same as the Ibex tights! Darn! At 10% off (today only) and with my lost gift cert, they'd be affordable! Pooey!

    not to be difficult (or steer people away from TE) but altrec.com is having a sale and the ibex loose tights are on sale. the perfect comprimise- wool and flattering ( I think)

    Knot-we are all all Brooks family. They are, for us, the most comfotable running shoes. DH and Husband love the Addiction (son has the last 3 years and DH and son have the Addiction 7, which they currently wear). I have the Adrenaline GTS 6 and Adrenaline ASR.

    BMo3 - We are a Brooks family, too! At one point, I had 3 pair. Gave my latest pairs to SKnot because he kept wearing out his shoes and his feet were the same size as mine at the time.

    Now I have none, and need to get a new pair of Ariels or Beasts.

    Ibex sale tights are going fast!

    OK, the $60 Ibex Approach tights on sale are now down to only L and XL. Mediums and smalls are gone!

    These are GREAT thick wool comfy tights. I got 2 for myself (size large believe it or not, they fit me great, not too tight, just comfortable fit) and have been wearing them for 2 weeks now nonstop. I LOVE the way they feel on my skin! Like a micro massage....
    I then got 3 more pairs to give to my 2 daughters and one of their partners for Xmas. Then a friend checked mine out in town the other day and went home to order some for herself- she's a big tights wearer and very athletic.
    If you're going to get one- do it, they are going fast...
    I usually take a medium but in these I like the large- they are a little more relaxed on me -more like a snuggly pair of light wooly pants than a tight compression pair of lycra tights.

    They look nice. They no longer have my size, which will teach me to pay attention and allows me time to save up money for the next sale.
