    If any of you have this jersey, I'd be interested to know how you like it. I'm not sure I'm going to keep it. I just thought it would be thicker, but perhaps it's okay as it is.

    My parents just bought my husband the Indie LS jersery in the mens version as an early Christmas present. I was also a little surprised at how thin it was...but it's really good looking.

    I've bought a couple of items from Ibex that when I first got them, I was worried they were too thin. I've kept them all and many of them are now my favorite tops. They may not fit into my wardrobe like I'd originally intended, but they ended up being even more useful than I had expected.

    one of the ibex pieces i recently bought was a cherry red with orange highlights long sleeve teeshirt. it's very light weight. I've taken to wearing it under short-sleeved blouses that I never wore this time of year before. A nice wardrobe change!

    Thanks, I'll keep it. I ordered the men's because the colors in the women's were terrible. I got red, men's small, and it fits fine. Glad to have now joined the Ibex ranks.

    I bought a couple Ibex indie long sleeves about 3 yrs ago, and found them to feel too itchy- never had that issue with any other ibex stuff before.
    I kept them as an extra layer, but I'm not a fan of the Indies. I found the Kate was really SOFT, but the same thickness.

    [giggling gleefully]

    Just back from my LBS with an impulse purchase of a pair of Smartwool arm warmers. So far I've only just tried them on in the car so I have no idea if they'll stay up in use or wear well or insulate without itching. But they are so dang cute that they make me smile.

    Also, every time I go to that store I'm reminded that I really should go to that store more often.

    They will stay up. And insulate without itching. And be very comfortable. I speak from experience.

    I love my wool PI arm warmers. Why those stay up with no grippers, and the DeSoto arm coolers with the grippers won't, I have no idea.
