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!"If Americans want to live the American Dream, they should go to Denmark." - Richard Wilkinson

Did you buy one of these? http://www.teamestrogen.com/prodSU_19702F_0.html Originally Posted by OakLeaf

And it would go so well with the red and black theme of my Cross Check!
And it's on sale!

What does "MAPP" merino wool mean?
I can't find any definition on the web. "100% MAPP merino wool".... huh?

I wonder if Joneswares' hi-vis wool is this stuff? http://www.mapp.co.nz/work_wear/hi-vis.php (they have the Zque logo on their site, so seems like it could be)"If Americans want to live the American Dream, they should go to Denmark." - Richard Wilkinson

Ok, so it's NOT 100% merino wool? "Merino Advanced Performance Programme (MAPP)"....From what I'm reading on their site (and they sure make it damned HARD to figure out just what it is), "MAPP" is a fabric made of merino wool combined or layered with with recycled polyester fiber. "MAPP TECH" fabric using 100% merino wool- in it's content.
It would be nice if the content was made clear.
And what do they mean by:
"MAPP Merino wool, named after New Zealand's famous, specially-bred Merino sheep"..... "named after"???
Hmmm.......
What does the label say the content is?Lisa

There're matching tops, too. Neve is a dangerous site. Their stuff is waaaaaay expensive.Last edited by KnottedYet; 10-04-2009 at 02:14 PM.

I'm confused. Joneswear? I thought you were lusting after the wool on the Riv site. I can't keep up with which wool this woman wants to wear Originally Posted by KnottedYet
