I'm pretty much covered in Merino wool - I've bought one blue MUSA short sleeve from Rivendell (and a lot of MUSA pants - I dig them), A blue long-sleeve Icebreaker200 I bought from sierratradingpost matched exactly the blue MUSA short sleeve except for the label and the color of the thread. I'm layered head to toe in 3 weights of merino, in 3 lengths, and tops in 4 colors. (also wear them under my waders for coldwater fishing). I take full advantage of sierratradingpost coupons. . Every time I place an order with them for anything, I add merino footies or boot socks or Icebreaker 150 undies. With wise use of sierratradingpost coupons, my best deal is $108 for two merino tops and two merino bottoms (for my daughter) with retail value of $350. Other than the bright blue which matches my bike, I go for bright colors - red, yellow and blaze orange to be visible on the road. I've got a red merino tee with an RV graphic on it - SoK, the price was right, etc. Same with kayak clothes - especially for my daughter - women's outdoor clothing is three times the price of men's.
