I may become seriously tempted by their shorts...
Anyone has tried them? Do they run big or small? I am hesitating between a small and a medium...?

I have the 3/4 "el Fito" capris. I love them whole-heartedly, even though I bought a size too small (on sale). They seem to run true to size or slightly large. I'm generally a 12 or L in the outside world.
My Ibex L boxers fit me beautifully. My Ibex M capris fit great except that the chamois is small. If I could get an L chamois in my M's that would be very cool.
The wool does give nicely and stays smooth, no itchy wrinkles or pinch-y folds. I have a small waist for my hip size and the el fitos accomadated both fine.
Ibex is very nice about returns and you can ask when you call about how things tend to fit."If Americans want to live the American Dream, they should go to Denmark." - Richard Wilkinson

I love Ibex so much... I discovered it last summer and have become an addict - I am embarrassed by how much Ibex I have acquired, but it is all astounding in terms of heat regulation (I used to get cold quite often, and now no longer do).
My Ibex bike apparel includes the 3/4 El Fito tights, arm warmers, knee warmers, and a bike jersey (the kind with elastic at the bottom, which does annoyingly ride up to my waist - might have to cut that out - it was cheaply bought at Sierra Trading Post). I also love their Breakaway jacket - in the depths of winter riding I wore it with the Norgie long sleeved top and the Agate tshirt and was never cold mountain biking.
My bike buddy wears the Ibex bike shorts all the time - summer/winter, and she absolutely loves them.
