I want red undies!
A bit concerned that the bra won't be good for my floppy 34 C "girls," and my beloved CW-X is cheaper than the Ibex (which might not be supportive enough). Any feedback on how supportive the Ibex sports bra is for us older-bodied chicks?

reading this makes me think it may not work so well for larger breasted women ~ "best for A, B cups in medium-low impact activities in all seasons"

that's what I'm afraid of.
the wool bras Duck found sound like they've got a bit more "oomph".

I'm an A cup, and I don't do any "high impact" things to my boobs.
So the bras might work for me. I worry about whether they will stretch out too much over time though. (the bras, I mean!)Lisa

I got the apple green Bregenz Ibex jacket and it fits me great! (with my hips, I'm lucky.)
The XL was a bit too big and roomy, but the Large fits me smoothly, just right with a couple of merino tops on under it. I can actually even wear the green loden vest under the loden jacket, if I ever was out in really horrible cold conditions. My vest is a large as well.
It's a great versatile jacket at a great price on sale. The loden wool material is quite thick, soft, and warm. Sort of like a good thick boiled wool.....Not stiff and heavy like the German "loden cloth" wool I remember from when I was little.Lisa

Since TE is so fast with sending items out, I should be able to report back quickly. I'm a 36 B, so not sure how good my report back will be for some of you, but I'll let you know how it works running (which I consider high impact).
And since I have next week off, I'll let you know how bad the stretch is from wearing it every single day (ok, admitedly not a strong indicator, but will report back regularly)
On a side note, I wore my new Ibex Echo Tee under my new Sugoi Stealth Jacket, talk about a match made in heaven!!
