I love you, but I'm really hoping that they don't have it in my size.

If they do, it must be fate.

I went ahead and sent back a pair of Serenity tights I'd just gotten from REI, to appease the guilt. The tights were full price and the Shak was on sale.

anyone here have a Zephyr? Do you like it? does it look like underwear?
(on sale at Ibex)

I've never had a zephyr.

I picked up an ibex serrano jersey last night:

I absolutely love it. Very soft, great fit.

I have a zepher. It does not look like underwear, although it does have flat lock stitching which dresses it down a tad. It is similar in weight to the smartwool midweight zip Ts. I like it very much, its very soft. It layers nicely over a norgie crew, and I have a set in the same color I do that with. The absolute dressiest looking top they offer is the Razzel, and the green is a beautiful color. I have it in red too, but its a bit dark for my taste.

I had a zephyr zip turtleneck. I traded it for a Ribbie with a friend. It was fine- soft, medium weight, and has a squarish relaxed cut that is not as form fitting as the woolie for instance. It's thicker than a woolie, thinner than a shak. Smooth texture.

thanks ladies. I have (gasp) resisted this time. I didn't want yet another over $100 bill on my visa card .

My Ibex Juliet arrived yesterday. It is simply lovely, very soft. Nice enough that I can wear it w/slacks for work. The sleeves are styled in a special way at the wrists. I love it!

My black shak arrived, too. I've resisted getting a shak in cranberry but have dropped serious hints to my DH!

Sorry to say but I have a zephyr and I love it. I bought it to replace another blue zip-zip that was getting worn down and had a few bleach stains on it. I get lots of compliments on the color. It is not an underweight thickness.

Don't be sorry; I just have plenty of clothing and lots and lots of wool. Sometimes I look at all my stuff and wonder what's going to happen when a wool eating moth flies in!

**Zen** · 03-05-2009, 02:25 PM

Psst...see that little face with the winky eye?...click around the rest of that site

**BleeckerSt_Girl** · 03-05-2009, 02:41 PM

DH and I like to be about 1" apart for 24/7....but those clothes would be incredibly annoying!
