WoolWeenies Club

I'm a 34A and I wear an XS I/O bio. Never tried Ibex.

One pair of Ibex cycling shorts is looking for a new home. They have moved from Redhodie to me, but sadly there is something about the pad that my body does NOT like - it itches (I did wash them several times)

These are nice shorts and they will be nice for early spring biking for someone; they would also be nice under tights. They are free for the asking, all I ask is postage reimbursement.

[Triskeliongirl]

I'll take them Catrin. I'll PM you my info.

Happily, I sold two more tops today to another TE member.
That leaves just the pair of brown Shaks and the ronge SW hoody- see link in previous posts if interested. Thanks!

I'm so looking forward to getting in my veggie garden again and starting to clean up and dig while the chilly air filters through my nice cozy wool and the sun is on my face.
....but I have to wait several more weeks- it's still frozen solid and still covered with ice and snow!

The Ibex shorts have found a new home

Pity that I couldn't wear them. I imagine that all of their chamois are from the same material so this probably means I just can't wear their cycling shorts at all...

Oh well, they have other things that I can try. I note that Smartwool has bib shorts, and the chamois is covered with Smartwool as well. I don't know about that... Has anyone here tried them? I just noticed them at my LBS recently.

I don't like the thought of a wool chamois... although I do wear the Ibex boy shorts under my tights when I hike, nordic ski, or winter run. But a wool chamois seems, ah, thicker and makes me itch thinking about it coming in contact with my delicate parts.

Thanks for the replies from OakLeaf, GLC1968 & Triskeliongirl on the bra size.
I guess I/O's sizing is a little bit loose as compared with Ibex then.

Okay....please don't think me macabre....but I saw this article last night and all I could think of were the Wool Weenies!

Green Goodbyes in a woolen coffin: Time Magazine.

[Biciclista]

wow, that's REALLY cool!

[BleeckerSt_Girl]

That coffin looks just like a fiddle case. Wool fiddle cases would be cool too!

[Crankin]

I wonder if that would be considered "Kosher" from a religious point of view. It certainly is a natural material.

Amazon has a very limited stock (size large) of Ibex Shak jerseys in black and snow for $40.49. They're great for biking, running and hiking.
Some other Ibex items at good prices too.
