Ibex Going Out of Business

[Snowy]

Ibex wool is not cheap, but it's among my very favorite. The Indie Hoodie is just awesome. A lot of stuff is 40% off. I'm bummed they're going away: Ibex Outdoor Clothing - Merino Wool Experts

I'm not sure whether I'm happy you posted this or not... There goes another couple hundred bucks, lol

If I had to guess why they're going out of business, aside from a cost of production standpoint, is their stuff is a notch more expensive than the other high end wool manufacturers. It's not enough better than Icebreaker and Smartwool to sell product, despite being somewhat better quality IMO.

Leave me a hoodie or two

that sucks, they had excellent products. Stiff competition in that industry and it takes alot to define a brand as premium and build a customer base that will pay for it.

Thanks for the heads-up! My wife and I both like our Indie hoodies for day hikes; they're just thick enough to be bug proof while still pretty light. Might have to pick up some spares!

Never even heard of them till your post. Bought two of the Indie hoodies to try out. Worst case is they won't be any worse than some of the Merino I have.
