Nah, still hemming and hawing. I may just go ahead and order the Thistle shak and see them both in person to compare. Maybe I just need to keep both of them!Originally Posted by Lisa S.H.

Dianyla - what size did you get in the light blue? If it happens to be a M and you decide that you don't want it, I might be willing to take it off your hands.

It's a size L, actually. I got it on backcountryoutlet.com so it's fully returnable. Originally Posted by GLC1968

One will shrink in hot...the other in cold....right? There's a riddle in there somewhere, I think! Originally Posted by Lisa S.H.

Well, my first ever SHAK is scheduled to be delivered on Thursday. I'm tracking it and can't wait to check it out.

Feelin' the love...
I love TE. I've placed online orders with 6 different companies in the last week and a half. (combination of retail therapy and Christmas bonus from work) TE has notified me immediately of a problem with my order, AND packages have arrived from TE before the other companies' packages did.

Ibex gloves and mittens?
Thanks to an unbridled wool shopping spree about two months ago, I've managed (so far) to resist the current High Country Ibex clearance, as well as the higher-end delights of the Ibex Winter Sale.....
BUT I did fall prey last Friday to the Ibex Climawool gloves and the Ibex loden mittens, both of which are on sale! I ordered one set of each; they arrived today. Does anyone have either model? If so, what do you think of them warmth-wise for winter cycling??
Even in Small, they're both a little big on me, but I figure I can add a liner glove and make them that much warmer.......
Temps today were in the low 70s (yes, you read that right) here in Central VA, so no chance to try 'em out until at least the weekend!"If there are no dogs in heaven, then when I die I want to go where they went." (Will Rogers)
