    My Ibex Zepher crews stain so easily.

    Both of them have big stains now just from the dust on the clothesline. One of them just got stained today, but the other one's been washed three times since it got stained, and it won't come out. (If I'd realized where the stain came from, I wouldn't have hung the other one out.) My clotheslines aren't that dirty, none of my other clothes are stained. Yeah they're just base layers, but still.

    My zepher has a stain on it ( big ol' bike grease stain). I got grease on the sleave and some how transferred some of that to right below the zip. I washed it twice and pretreated it for the second wash. After the second wash, the chest stain went away and the sleeve stain is mostly gone.
    Thanks TE! You pushed me half way over!

    Thanks, I'll try pre-treating them next time.

    Here is my wardrobe for my night on the town tomorrow. Predicted temperature: between -5 and 5, with windchill making it feel worse. We have to walk about 1.5 city blocks from the parking lot to the theatre and restaurant.
    long underwear- silk
    thin SmartWool ski socks
    regular short black boots
    Ibex Kate
    Ibex Shak
    wool dress pants
    wool dress coat, 3/4 length
    merino scarf
    wool hat
    not sure which gloves, but probably my thick fleecy ones because I think the Cabelas will be too much, let alone, I don't have a purse big enough to put them in.

    Make sure you don't wear dress boots that might slip on hidden ice patches on the dark sidewalk. Wear good tread. Elegance is not worth a broken hip! =8-o

    I thought about that and will make my final decision tonight. I really don't have any other boots except my Uggs, which would be OK, except my pants would be dragging on the ground, definitely causing me to trip. Same thing for my Merrell Mocs. Most of my dress pants are meant to be worn with slightly higher heels. Not high heels, but maybe 1/2 inch to 1.5 inches. The sidewalk where we will be walking is in a heavily travelled area around Northeastern U., so it is usually all cleared.
    I can always insist that Steve let me hang onto his arm, taking him down with me, if I fall! (I won't tell you about the "accident" he had with an exercise ball, necessitating a meeting with the chain ring of my bike that is on the trainer).

    These are the solid merino wool tops that I find I wear more than any others- thicker than a base layer and so warm, yet very very SOFT and I've laundered them a hundred times already with no damage. I just love the black ones for every day wear, so versatile combined with just about everything i own.

    Hahah.. Thanks. Just deciding on which color I want, but I took out the wool jersey.
