    Well, we are all shaped diferently, but...
    It's not a "low-rise" or hip hugger type waist. I would call it a "normal" waist height, not "quite high"- but I guess terminology may have changed. The waist on the tights seems to fall right at my belly button- which is about an inch below my natural waist. (my natural waist being the narrowest part of my waist). I myself like both lowrise and regular waists in clothes.
    Got a piercing, or just a sensitive belly button?

    You girls are a bad influence. After lurking in this post, I ended up clicking the Ibex link that Knotted provided and getting a couple shirts (who can pass up such good deals! haha). This year, I had already added to my wool collection, as REI outlet had some Ibex and Smartwool tops on sale.

    Icebreaker midweight top $34 at EMS - till Dec 11

    I just bought myself an Icebreaker Tech Bodyfit Top at www.ems.com. It is on sale for $45, but if you go through the checkout process and apply coupon code FF25, you get 25% off and the total is $33.75. In fact the 25% off code applies to ANYTHING at EMS till Dec 11. There are some other Icebreaker and Smartwool items there. Good luck!

    Hehe thanks for the info Lisa!

    Nothing special on the button, just like to have my pants rest on my upper hips. My tummy doesn't like to be enclosed in elastics. I can't even enjoy dear partner's arm around my waist when I sleep, he has to rest his arm on my hip bone otherwise I feel like I'm squeezed

    I think the tights are out for me. That's probably good, because I don't need tights.

    So lovely to see you all supporting NZ's economy.

    I was adding up the number of woolley items I possess, but when I'd exceeded twenty before starting in on hats and socks and scarves and gloves, I thought maybe it would be better if I just stopped counting.

    And also you didn't have to count the items you were actually wearing!
    Btw, "gloves" and "socks" count as 1 not 2.

    Should we get a 'WoolWeenies' jersey? just joking.

    I wish I could think of something though.

    My sweet partner is going to get one for his birthday (March) I think.

    Those are good prices. If we can get an order of 12, we could get ss wool jerseys for $46.50, ls wool jerseys for $51. On the other hand, it's only men's sizing and would probably be past-the-butt long on most of us.
