Here is an animated discussion of the merits of "the valenki"!http://shoeblogs.com/2006/01/11/the-valenki/ Silly : - ) Tokie ( I too can imagine skinny women in droopy gauzy blouses and skirts wearing the Valenki in 68 degree southern california weather! perception of cold is relative.)

My friend wore them with skinny jeans, tucked in. They looked really cute, very tall, almost to her knees. She had the galoshi over them. She said she paid about $75, including shipping from Russia! It looks like they're more than that now. The website she ordered from is gone, apparently.

Emily, I hope you love your Shak. Lisa got me hooked on Ibex at about this time last year. I now have 2 full zip Shaks (black and brown), 2 Shak hoodies in red and black, an Icebreaker full zip black hoodie my husband bought me, an Icebreaker quarter zip top, and some Smart Wool micro weight base layers.
Yesterday I ordered 2 more pair of Ibex boy shorts underwear and another Smart Wool base layer from TE.
Oy, I better be done.... but I am thinking about an Ibex bra for x country skiing.

Oooh!!! Ohhh!!!!

I found Smartwool socks here in Perth & bought myself a pair!!! ooooo!!!

Oh no! My Ibex/Smart Wool order from TE came Wednesday and the boy shorts were the wrong size. They were large and I ordered smalls. I re-ordered in medium, since they were out of the smalls and the smalls I have are a bit snug anyway.
The Smart Wool microweight was fine, though.

I was packing for a trip yesterday and was struggling because of having too many choices.

I found 2 small ibex norgies with tags that I've never worn - one's the green tonic color, the other's orange persimmon... I got them on SAC a few months back. I think they were about $40 each - so if anyone wants them for that + the cost of shipping them to you, let me know.
