Description, Tech Specs, Fabric & Source
There are numbers, and there are numbers. When it comes to Merino wool, 17.5 is a number you need to know. What's it mean? 17.5 is the thickness of the wool fiber measured in microns. The lower the number, the finer the wool. How fine is this fabric, then? Well, consider that a human hair is about 60 microns. That makes our 17.5 one of the softest, lightest fabrics around - but because it's wool, it also delivers durable high performance. Is it any wonder we love what we do?

Our favorite Tee we make. Period.

      Great for travel; I can wear it in the gym and it dries fast enough to wear to work or dinner. Pack two, and you have all the shirts you will need. I wish the Ibex folks would use this fabric on some of their other T's...

        The 17.5 wool feels great on the skin. I'd like to see this weight in more products.

        The real question here is, "what don't I use this shirt for??" You can workout in this shirt for two hours and then go to dinner at ANY restaurant in ANY city (shirt collars notwithstanding) and be perfectly dressed. IBEX created a technology in this shirt that makes you want to workout, go out--do whatever you want. Get 2 at a minimum--one to workout in and one for everyday wear. Never smells--try it!!

        Wore two of these all over New Zealand for 4 weeks. I still struggle sometimes to wear even this wool against my torso (light itch for me), but this is the best I've found and I work for a retailer that also sells similar products. I also find it fits me much better than the competitors. My wife loves the women's version. The peculiar smell I get when I wash them completely disappears once dry.

          The perfect top for trekking in the Himalayas. Wore it for a week (!) with no smell--it dried quickly and was very comfortable, not itchy.

            I wear this under a looser top layer, it is comfortable, warm, breathes very nicely and is very good looking. It's limiting side is cost.

                This fabric is superb, it feels like nothing else I've worn and it doesn't cling when you work up a sweat.

                For a change, the product actually does what the manufacturer says it does.

                  Comments about Ibex Seventeen.5 T2:

                  I wear these t-shirts everywhere, and people are always commenting on them. They are expensive, but worth it. Be careful about the fit-you need the right size for your shoulders or it won't fit right. I usually wear XL, but the XL on this shirt had the shoulders down onto my arms, which made it very uncomfortable. Large was perfect.
