I got my 405 Full Zip in red on Monday and I finally got a chance to try it on today. I'm wearing it right now at work and I LOVE it. It's soft and comfy like all my Ibex stuff, but the collar design and the finish makes it looks like a jacket/blazer. Very, very cute! (in fact, I may have to order the blue color, too!!!). The sleeves are a bit long on my short arms (like all Ibex stuff) but the shoulders and body fit nicely. I got a medium and I'd say it fits pretty damn close to the same way my full zip shak fits me. The red color is beautiful - true red...very nice.

Definitely cute and certainly worth the 50% off price point!

Yay!
Just to be accurate- the outlet boasts discounts of "up to" 50%....and the 405 was $150, now $95, so not a 50% discount there, but still a good deal for such a high quality item.

I got the very same 405 in red too, but I got one Large and one Medium....they both fit me- one fits like a loose light jacket and the other fits more like a sleek shirt..... but I still can't decide which one to go with.
Have to try them on again in a couple of days to be more objective. They are GREAT- not too heavy, not too light...and very handsome.

I often have this problem with Ibex tops- some look better in medium on me, and some in large, so I always have to order both sizes.

Oh, I should point out that I did get mine for 50% off at backcountryoutlet.com. BUT, it's also not on that big of a sale there anymore, either. It's now back to $97...so it's again cheaper at Ibex. (in case anyone is currently shopping!)

Lisa - I know your sizing pain! I was that way with Ibex smalls and mediums before I gained all my current weight. Now it's easy, I'm always medium! How's that for a twisted 'silver lining'?!

So I either need to gain 7 pounds or lose 7 pounds.
Hmmmm........which is easier?

Backcountry.com has a 50% off coupon that is good throut 7/31. So you can still get the Ibex 405 for half price..

You are totally correct! I forgot that you have to put the item into your cart to see the 50% off prices. The sale is definitely still on (as evidenced by my recent purchase for another 405 and a norgie crew! ) Free shipping if you spend more than $50, too. And they ship quickly....not TE quickly...but still better than most places.

I also got the 405 at backcountry outlet and went with the tan large to use as a jacket. I LOVE IT! I'm also in the "short arm brigade" so I will have to shorten the sleeves but that's the price you pay.

I did not like the boucle jacket though. No pockets and it was kind of scratchie feeling. It's going back.

I scored on the Kara sweater! I love it as well. It was only left in black and I would have prefered the chocolate but that's ok.

I also got a pair of guys Ibex boxer undies to wear as pj bottoms from SAC and for a whopping $16 they are awesome I must stop shopping until I get unpacked from all my moving this summer.

Did you order your regular size in the Ibex 405, or go up one size?
