I got one of those too. I like my 12% wool, 88% polyester from Steep and Cheap for $12.74 shirt. It's much better than any of my 100% polyester shirts, I may never wear those again.Originally Posted by DebW

And thus begins the addiction... a few wool blends (while making snide remarks to your nearest and dearest about how much $$ full-wool costs), but I sense 100% wool in your future, young lady! Originally Posted by Trek420

Got the Ibex Dash Jackets last week, just didn't really get to look too closely as there was so much going on. They are not heavy, but more medium weight, but the front seems like it would be quite windproof. The back is a like a stretchy warm sweater. The L womens fit me nicely everywhere but the length, where I feel it is too short for me. I am long waisted, and also 5'8". The sleeves were long enough, the shoulders fit well, and it was not baggy. The mens is much longer, and dips more in the back, which I like. However, I tried on my husbands L, which is too baggy everywhere, but the length is lovely. So I don't know whether to try the mens medium. My husband is definitely keeping his, but I "sob" have to send the womens back. These jackets are beautiful for the money. However, if you are a tall women, I would recommend trying the mens.
Any ideas from the Ibex rep who posts here? I would appreciate it!

Darn, I hope Ibex isn't shortening their women's sizes! I'm 5'8" and long-armed, and wear a L in everything. Sounds like the L Dash wouldn't fit me at all!!!
