Comments about Ibex Mechanic Shirt:
Been wearing this shirt about 50% of the time over the last 6 weeks of a long bike tour. it's exactly what I was hoping for. very light and airy and loose fitting. can button down the front on hot days. like all wool, you can sweat all day in it and it dries fast and does not retain smell. and then you can wear it out to grab a beer direct from the bike.
the collar is a bit flimsy, but that works great for jamming in panniers.
it's not flattering, but utterly practical.
highly recommended.

The shirt felt great the first time I put it on and after a few washings it is even softer.

Great color and feel. Sized at the smaller end of "small," which is perfect for me (5'6").

Bought this as a technical shirt that I could bike to work in and look like I belonged there. It is so versatile that I find myself wearing it more and more.

Comments about Ibex Mechanic Shirt:
Nice looking shirt but too small.
My black one is holding up okay, but my blue one just fell apart. Not your typical Ibex product.
Please fix this or try again!

Comments about Ibex Mechanic Shirt:
Okay - so I wrote a bad review of the Mechanics shirt based on the first one I ordered - So What!!
I highly recommend sizing up this shirt - I originally purchased a medium (like everything else I wear) and it seemed snug. I had to try again and, going with the large, I purchased my favorite summer shirt!! This is awesome and for style, comfort, and functionality the Mechanics shirt is unsurpassed!

Comments about Ibex Mechanic Shirt:
This shirt keeps me comfortable in the classic Ibex-wool kind of way, while adding a collar and looking just a little bit more presentable. Others' concerns about the effect of washing the fabric just haven't surfaced with this shirt: maybe it is a new weave or something. Snap this one up!

I agree that this fits a bit tight in the armpits, but I find it to be a great summer shirt to travel with or to throw on when grabbing lunch/dinner after a day hiking or sailing.
