My acupuncturist is an Ibex fan. He notices every piece of wool I wear to an appointment. Well, he's a former racer, so he is versed in all things wicking. It's funny, every medical professional I go to is a cyclist in one way or another.

Just a little inside scoop during the autumn Ibex buying season....
The "Indie Crew" long sleeve tops that are on sale at Ibex in the women's outlet are not as soft as all my other Ibex merino tops....in fact they are a bit itchy.![]()

Uh-oh....is this a trend?
I think the Norgie long sleeves on sale are plenty soft though- can someone confirm that?
My Indie shirts are too slim to wear a softer base layer under. I didn't notice they were itchy until I had cut off the tags and started wearing them.I never figured anything Ibex would not be soft and dreamy.

I have 3 Ibex Norgie crews and they are very soft. I do not find them itchy at all. They are not a real slim fit. I wear them a lot in colder weather.
I have a solid color Norgie crew (last year's maybe?) and it's nice and soft. It's a bit heavier than I had thought it would be, too - kind of like a thick t-shirt weight. I really like it!
