    Ibex Boucle Full Zip

    SO, my ibex full zip boucles arrived today: http://www.ibexwear.com/shop/Product...oucle-Full-Zip

    As I said before, I ordered it in sandstone in both S and M. It is a very nice piece. The cut is the same as the full zip shak (minus the pocket), but the fabric is different. I would say the outside is more textured than the shak, but not rough like the carrie hoodie. The inside is identical. It is soft on bare skin.

    All my other ibex is small, and indeed the small in this piece fits the best. I also ordered the medium since I thought it might layer better, but it just looked frumpy on me, compared to the sleek fit of the small (and sleeves were too long and kind of bunched up under my arms). The small layered fine over the pieces I wanted to layer it over (a long sleeve blouse would be the heaviest). I will warn you that the color is a little darker than the way the Ibex pic looks on my computer screen, I would call it more of a beige or taupe than sand color, but it is a very nice neutral light color for spring. It has an elegant look, almost of a textured linen, so it would work with casual or professional clothes.

    So, I can either ship the M back to Ibex for a full refund, but I thought I'd offer it up here first since I noticed they are sold out of the sandstone M, and maybe save myself some return postage. All I ask is that you pay me what I payed plus shipping costs to you, which I just priced at the USPS website at $11.00 for priority shipping w insurance to any US address in a flat rate box. I payed $95, so I am just looking to recover $106 via paypal. It is brand new with tags. ALL SALES ARE FINAL, NO REFUNDS. PM me if you are interested. If I don't hear from anyone by monday I'll send it back to Ibex then.

    The only thing that would keep me from sending back/selling the medium is if someone tells me that they bought this piece and it shrunk. But I am assuming it will not shrink like my other ibex (which I do wash by hand in cold water).

    A-HA! I found the first downside to moving out west....Ibex stuff takes longer to arrive now!


    I haven't seen my order yet, but I'm kind of glad to hear it's a little darker in color than it appears on the web. It'll camoflauge my dog's hair better!

    I'm ordering the 405 today. I can't resist.
