Ibex wool bra review

[sandra]

sorry, I was posting but other posts got ahead of me. Skierchickie's husband for this:

I tried them both on, and they both felt amazingly comfortable. I couldn't decide which one fit better, so my DH said "why don't you just keep both?". I said "because they were $50 apiece". He said "so, how often do you get something like this?".

Truthfully, I have a husband that is that sweet, but I hope she realizes she has a keeper.

Thanks Sandra! I know - he IS a keeper! In spite of what I may say or think once in a great while.

I have a hard time imagining wool giving any support at all. Is it really there?

Oakleaf: Probably not much. I don't need much - it's fine for me. Like I said, I'm pretty sure I won't use them for running. They are 2 layers everywhere, and different knit in different areas, so there is more stretch in some areas than in others. I can't really say if it would work for somebody with more of a bust than I have. Probably great for biking, anyway (I won't know until at least April). Seemed to work fine tonight for hauling firewood into the basement and playing in the snow with my kindling-stealing dog.

The Ibex cami is fantastic - kept the girls warm, without the post ride clamy skin. I'd prefer it to be longer, but it did stay down when tucked in to my short. Don't worry - it was well hidden under other layers. I was a bit worried about the thin straps - but they are soft & did not dig in.

Overall - this gives as much support as the Target Champion C9 sports bras - but is so much cozier in cold weather! Next purchase will be the Red sports bra. woo!
