My new non-farm blog: Finding Freedom
I read that the loose tights have a 'new fit' this year, but there was no further info. Anyone know what they changed? Everything would be a good start.
Ahhhh! SAC is trying to bankrupt us!
Whole buncha lightweight smartwool zipneck tops are there right now, all light blue, all sizes.![]()
I just got a post card for the Ibex tent sale at their headquarters in Quechee, VT next Fri., Sat., and Sunday. Seriously thought about driving up there, but, it's a bit much for a one day trip. Plus, it's a holiday weekend and I don't feel like fighting the crowds of leaf peepers.
Still...
High-Vis wool, baby!!!!

And Ibex may have made the terrible mistake of DISCONTINUING the women's Roaster Boxer, but Joneswares has what I believe will make a fine replacement (and cheaper, and made in the USA)

If it is as comfy as the Roaster Boxer, and doesn't bust out in holes like the Ibex Balance Runner, I will be a happy camper!

Running in the Ibex Izzi pants: not recommended!! I did that today and tripped by catching my toe on the bottom of the opposite pant leg b/c the pants are flared. At least this happened on wood chips in the park rather than on the pavement or on a rocky trail, so it was a soft landing (plus I wasn't going that fast). The pants are comfy and great for general everyday wear, but not so much for running (or am I just a klutz?).

Joneswares www.joneswares.com has several wool pants and tights that look like they'd be good for running in. I'm going to order the Trail pants (cuz I think I can wear them at work, on the bike commute, and for running) soon.
