WoolWeenies Club

[RTW]

For those who remember my questions about the sizing of the Shak and Carrie and so on....I've decided to keep the Carrie in S and return the Carrie in M. But before I do that, I wanted to offer it up here (since the REI price was a really good deal). If anyone here is interested in the gray Carrie hoodie in M, send me a PM -- it would be $74.93 plus shipping.

Will most likely keep the Shak, though if I change my mind, I'll also let you all know first. Thanks for all the advice!

So I just picked up my Ibex Shak full-zip (thanks to Triskeliongirl who pointed out that REI Outlet had my size in black in XS only for an excellent price), and I wore it today for the first time. I absolutely love it! Why in the world did I wait so long?

Now the company I work for has filed for bankruptcy protection, and until I know if I'll still have a job in a month or three, I don't feel like I can spend any money....so I'll have to make do for now, but I sure would like some more Ibex someday. A girl can dream...

Wow, I think the black full-zip Shak should be the official TE uniform--seems like most of us have them (yes, I got one from that sale at REI too)!!

I saw some more Ibex I'd love on sale at backcountry outlet, but no more spending for me. Hopefully soon I'll find out I have a "secure" (or relatively so, in this economy) job and can buy a few more pieces...

Emily, hope your job situation improves. So glad you got hooked on Ibex. I have been living in my black and brown full zip Shaks. Then on the other days I wear my Shak hoodies or my Icebreaker stuff! Well, next week I go back to classes at the university, so I will have to rotate my clothes a little more.
I don't know what I would have done without Lisa hooking me on this stuff!

Well, you could have been vacationing in Tahiti or something, with all the money you would have saved.


I do think the Ibex full zip black Shak has to be the ONE item that most encompasses the WoolWeenie spirit....it should be our flagship.

I agree. Here's a challenge for everyone who has a black full zip shak...

Take a photo of yourself wearing it (or post one if you already have one!) and post it here! Let's put together a wool-weenie collage!

Yeah, my black Shak got me through some chilly airplane rides and evenings in Mexico over the past 5 days. I love it.

Not sure if anyone got a picture of me in it.
