Amazon.com Product Description

The jersey at the center of the wool universe, the Men's Shak Pullover of 100 percent dense-knit wool is soft, durable, versatile...beautiful. A wardrobe staple that will complement your work slacks, befriend your jeans, can be thrown over formal wear, and is at home on the ski slopes, mountain trails, or bike path, the Shak will convert the wearers of synthetics into Ibex merino wool believers. A few of the most noted and most lauded characteristics of the Ibex Shak include the garment's imperviousness to odor, its superior temperature regulation in varying conditions, and its insulating ability even when wet. Shak devotees boast that they can wear the Shak for days on end, through heavy exertion from the office to the trail, without washing, and the Shak maintains its shape and smooth appearance and is remarkably odor free.

Constructed of 100 percent dense-knit New Zealand merino wool, the durable Shak is soft, warm, and breathable, adjusting to keep you at an ideal temperature. The high-quality wool will take years of use and abuse, showing hardly any wear and maintaining its shape, with no tendency to pill, snag, or develop thin spots. The all-natural wool inherently manages interior and exterior moisture, staying warm when wet and keeping you feeling dry and never clammy from the inside. The Shak can be worn for heavy sport and will not hold onto moisture or develop an odor as synthetics do.

The Shak Pullover is great for layering under jackets and waterproof shells and also is great as a stand-alone. The 11-inch zipper allows for excellent heat management. With a semi-fit cut, the Shak keeps cold wind out, providing superior warmth. The Shak features flatlock seam construction for zero-abrasion comfort and a smooth finish, and raglan sleeves. Easy to care for, the Scout is machine washable. The versatile and durable Shak is a wardrobe staple for travel, sport, and everyday use.

I use my Shak all year round, from playing around town to biking to climbing in all seasons. I use this thing almost every day for everything. You wont regret the purchase.

It is fit for an athletic build and may fit a bit snugger than people are used to, but it is one of the reasons I like it; it wont drape.

The sweater is thin but feels dense and weightier than normal merino wool sweater. I have been wearing it for four weeks in mid-20s morning commute as a mid layer (I wear an Under Armor base layer and a light weight Windstopper Gorex softshell). It is fantastic. I feels cool but never cold. Towards the end of the 40 minute commute, I do sweat a bit. But the fabric takes out most of the moisture. You really feel a lot more confident riding in the cold with this sweater. It is also very elegantly cut, slim but not tight. I wear M and I'm 5'8/170lb. it would make a very nice casual wear. The black color is very deep and consistent.
