Is this stuff itchy?

[mimitabby]

not really; it hardly feels like wool.

[KnottedYet]

No, not itchy at all (for me, ymmv). I wear wool UNDERWEAR. Yes, right there, up close and personal. Women's wool boxer briefs. Most comfortable undies I own.

(I have 3 pair)

This fall Ibex is s'posed to start running lighter weight seamless wool undies and camisole/bra tops. You can bet I'll be ordering some of them!

What? Yay!!!!

*hops up and down*

This rumour was confirmed by my local Ibex rep AND by the Ibex chickie I spoke to when I placed an order by phone.

Bring it on!

Oooh they look yummy!!!!

(and it looks like they may have listened to my tomato color request?)

Would this be an appropriate moment to mention that not only is TE a new Ibex dealer (we're expecting our first shipment any day!) but that we will also be carrying the seamless underwear??

And all of YOU are to blame. The Ibex folks saw so many orders coming to their website from these forums that they called us up and asked us to become a dealer....

[mimitabby]

wow!! that's pretty cool!

[KnottedYet]

YEEEEEEHAAAWWWWWWWW!

Susan, I'll take one of each and can you carry the Ibex women's boxer briefs, too?

Hey, this is gonna be so cool!

We rool......

Susan rulz, cuz she's gonna carry Ibex!

(BTW: I love my 3 pairs of Ibex boxers more than my 2 pairs of Smartwool boxers. Now I want some seamless lightweight Ibex boxers, too. They promised me they'd make them in compression-short length like the Roaster boxers.)

I was all set to buy a bunch of woolie-goodies from REI-outlet.com but by the time I went to "checkout" half of them were gone already!

Lots of nice Ibex vests and jackets left.

The Ibex rep was just in this morning with the new color samples in the seamless underwear pieces. They are calling the color "burnt red". It's very nice. I think of "tomato" as being a little bit brighter than the color they are doing. Perhaps more "tomato soup" than tomato.

The same red will be available in several aparel pieces as well, for Spring 2008.

Susan, I'll take one of each and can you carry the Ibex women's boxer briefs, too?

Yes. All three colors will be available at TE. (those colors being black, burnt red and warm green, which to me is very sage in hue.) Expected arrival date is mid-October.

Woo-HHHOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! I see luxurious scrumptious new underwear in my future!!!!

Tomato soup and sage, here I come!!!

(hhmmmm...these fonts colors are not quite right....maddening! )

[KnottedYet]

Sheesh - wear it with long sleeves for a while. I found that most of my ibex heavier-weight fabrics got softer on the inside after some wear.

(like my Switchback pullover, which when I first got it wasn't comfy over a tank top, but now is cozy enough that I sleep in it)

Ooh......uh......hmmm.....not sure how to answer to that.
