Smartwool dilemma

[Grog]

Oh, that is one gorgeous sweater--the Ultimate Guide Sweater, I mean. Is it really really heavy? Believe it or not, I do wear wool occasionally, even though I live in the south--in fact, I could've worn wool today. I'm a little quirky in my clothing habits, admittedly, but wool is such an adaptable fabric--I wear Smartwool socks all year round. So I'd love to have that sweater, but not if it's a very heavy one. Comments? Advice? Thanks!

Hummm... It's pretty heavy. Definitely heavier than, say, your average polar fleece sweater. I wear it with a light top underneath. I could imagine wearing it for a walk by the ocean in Florida in January. It's pretty good at breaking wind too.

At the price the women's version is right now, I would order it if I was you.

Hmmm...you might want to stay upwind of it in that case.....

We all have the same inner 10-year-old boy, huh?

You ladies are quick. Took me two reads to catch the joke. Must be time for me to toddle off to bed!

Guess that's one way to avoid the crowds on the beach, eh?

Well, even with its bad digestive habits, I ordered the sweater anyway--in that delicious blue. I'll post a report when I get it.

Maybe it has a high fiber content, contributing to it's "airiness".

Let us know how you like it! I'm tempted by the Ibex turtlenecks on sale myself....
