    Talking 1st Steep & Cheap buy

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    I just got my Icebreaker Olympia Zip shirt from Steep and Cheap:

    Frankly, it looks a lot better on me than on this model. Can you tell I'm happy? I got it for $30.94. Moosejaw's selling it online for $100! It's gorgeous. Obviously last year's color, but I like it better than this year's colors! It's a deep red with silver stripe down the sides. Really nice zipper collar, fits me well, and has thumb loops, which are so wonderful for running in the winter. This is so pretty that I would wear it socially, too.

    Yea, Steep & Cheap!

    Yep, the flax one is nice, too. The neck line is so pretty when you unzip it part way, too. Oh, I love soft, good wool! I just bought some Smartwool running socks from Steep and Cheap today. My Smartwool socks are, far and away, the most comfortable socks I've ever worn.

    And how about that $70 off?!?

    That is very nice.

    I got too excited and bought the men's zip when they had it awhile back. It is an especially dangerous site now as they are having the items change throughout the day.

    That Knotted got me sold on wearing wool. Who would have thought that you could wear wool and not itch?
    Yes, SHE can.

    I know.

    1. I check that site almost as often as I check TE these days!

    2. Wool. It's not just for scratching anymore. WAHOO!

    SmartWool products are made from 100% MERINO wool- the merino sheep produces the finest non-itchy wool you can buy. Try buying 100% merino wool skeins at a wool store to knit a sweater with- big bucks!!! (but not as much as angora!)
