The men's tights at Ibex are still $130, and the 3/4 length knickers are still $120.
Keep an eye on Altrec, they have some good deals now and then.

rei-outlet has merino wool long johns (top and bottom) for $30 each and there's a 20% off deal. It's their brand MTS.

I don't need long johns in sunny CA.
But merino wool t'shirts, the entry drug

What is smart wool made of? Does it contain real wool? I ask cuz I am allergic to real wool, so is this stuff a high-tech fiber that works like wool, or is it wool???

It IS wool. Very fine merino wool, carefully combed and knit. Originally Posted by Triskeliongirl

Check out Smartwool or Icebreaker stuff next time you go to a sports store!!

I cracked in our subzero weather here and ordered the Ibex approach tight http://www.ibexwear.com/F06/View_Pro...&CategoryLine=
I ordered an xl so they wouldn't be tight and I coule wear layers under them (I was too cheap to buy the loose tight) I LOVE them! In fact, I rarely took them off all weekend long
Yup, I'm a wool weenie....
