    Wool safari shirt?

    I will admit, mine will never see a dry cleaner. Hand wash and flat dry is the best it can hope for. When I get through wearing them I hang them up outside. There is no deoderant smell when I bring them back in the house.

    Wool pants wearers.

    I checked out the Ibex. On line the styling looks odd. They are priced like the Filson. I want a more traditional style for casual wear as well as outdoor sports.

    I can not speak for Bob. But what I gathered from a thread about rig sizes. Bob said that the super singles were overkill and not justifiable in cost. My quote" That is alot of money to drive 3000 miles on blacktop to offroad 10 miles. I may have misunderstood his statement, but that is...
