Just got the Smartwool boxer briefs I ordered.
Very lightweight, nice for summer.
However, be warned, Smartwool's "Large" is a good bit smaller than Ibex's "Large." And like all of the Smartwool clothes I've encountered, not quite as nicely made as Ibex and I'm not expecting them to be as durable as Ibex. But not bad at half the price of Ibex.

My Switchback pullover is a lovely dark charcoal gray. The accent stripe on the neck and embroidered Ibex logo on the center of the shoulders are a limey-yellow green.

Oh no. The wool weenies thread slipped to 9th in the apparel forum. Now it will be #1 again.
I made a stop at the PI factory outlet store in North Conway, NH on Saturday and walked out with a gorgeous PI wool jersey for $45. It even has a small zippered chest pocket.Last edited by DebW; 07-19-2009 at 10:45 AM.
