Ibex Jaci Pant

Whether I"m traveling or lounging, comfort is always important. So is performance. With Ibex's Jaci Pant, I get both. And I look great, too!

The Jaci Pant is made out a super soft, yet durable, French Terry merino wool. The pants feel substantial, like a luxurious double-knit cotton--only better because merino wool is highly breathable. Wool is naturally odor-resistant, so I can wear these pants for days on end before I need to wash them.

They keep me warm when I'm lounging in my drafty house, and they help regulate my temperature when I heat up during yoga practice. Another benefit of merino woo!

The Jaci Pant is also incredibly comfortable. Its wide (1.5 inches) waistband lies flat against my body and never binds. The medium rise is high enough for modesty, and low enough for active wear. Each pant leg has a slit in the back, giving the legs a drapy look and wide-leg appearance that gives me a more refined look when I'm traveling (versus the running sweat pants I used to wear when I flew.)

I love the color of this pant, too. It's dark enough that I can wear it easily with light colors or with black and purple, my favorite colors. I tested a size M, and found a perfect fit (I'm a size 10 in women's pants). The Ibex web site described the length of the Jaci Pant as 31.5", but the pair I tested were 34" (which was great for me!).

Available in women's sizesXS- XL, in Bittersweet, Stone Grey, and Black. Ibex makes a variety of merino tops and bottoms for men and women.

Bottom Line: A well-made pant that's soft but substantial, constructed out of breathable, fast-drying merino wool.--E.D. Jan 2011)
