So many more colors please
"If I could have a a closet with these shirts as my only basics, I would, but I need more great colors. A cocoa, soft olive, a soft navy, and a cream would really round out my collection. I bought the Escalante Heather color in both the long sleeve and short sleeve and I couldnt be happier. Fits well, doesn’t cling. And isn’t extremely long. I’m 5’7, have a 33 underbust, 36 bust, 16 shoulder, 31 waist, 36 upper hip for reference and bought the medium. I sometimes can wear a small in things but I’m glad I didn’t this time around it would’ve been way too tight. I also love how the tencel adds a slight sheen which makes me feel a bit more put together even when wearing for casual wear. I wore the long sleeve version of shirt for 7 straights days without any smells. And it washed so well on cold, with like-weighted other garments. I tumbled dried it on the lowest setting which is just slightly warm on my dryer and it came out great, maybe 2-5% shrinkage, still not clingy, still perfect-feeling, and I feel like it’ll just loosen up again with wear. Also love that even though there is an embroidered ibex logo near the bottom hem, not even noticeable which is a must for me. I refuse to be a walking billboard, no matter how great a product. It just feels like a really well crafted shirt. Oh also, if you wear a dark colored bra underneath it it will show a bit. Ok, tried to give the kind of review I’d want to read. So soft and perfect, get this shirt!"

20 year old comparison
"I have worn Ibex t-shirts for 20 years and have several that have been mended with Japanese mending techniques. I was pleased to find that my new t-shirts seem identical is size and fit."

Best merino/tencel tee
"This is my favorite Ibex product and the perfect tee for me. It's finished well, is just right in length (on the longer side) and fit (not too tight and not too loose in my regular size, flattering shape, well-cut armholes that don't gape). So soft and comfy. I have the Glacier heather, Midnight Navy heather, and Mauve heather. They are lovely soft shades but a bit dull. I only wish this tee came in richer and more vibrant colors."

Keeps me fresh in HOT, HUMID climate
"Tencel + Merino is a dream team, for real. I have this combo in three brands, and Ibex feels the smoothest and softest—I love it! The Paradox tee has a nice relaxed fit, but I still sized up to an XL. The crew neck is loose enough that I don’t feel stifled, and the drape doesn’t cling. The only thing I’d change is the length—it’s a little long for me, but probably ideal for tucking. For reference, I’m 5'7", 160 lbs, with a 33" waist, 37" bust, 36" HIGH hip, and 42" full hip."

My Favorite Tee
"These are truly the best active tees out there. They keep you cool when it's hot, wick away sweat like magic, and feel nice on your skin. The fit is flattering, and I really like the length on these. A truly quality shirt that holds its shape."

Best travel T
"This T-shirt had a perfect fit, It was not too tight in the neck, which is often a problem for me. The shirt had a flattering hemline which made it versatile for out on the trail and out to dinner."
— Elke M. (5/5)
"This shirt fits well and is so soft and light! The size chart seems accurate—I’m usually a Small in other brands, but this top was perfect for me in Medium."

Soft shirt with good length
"Trying out merino wool shirts for tennis and these are so far my favorite. Fit is snug so would size up for looser fit. Hopefully can still wear them when it gets really hot."

Love the Paradox
"It is so light I can wear for summer or I like to have as a T shirt base under merino long sleeve ski layer base. I have it on now even."
