why not 'big up' eh? - i'm happy to moan about slow deliveries after all! 😉

embers merino - top ordered yesterday, arrived this morning. nice bike specific top too (velo lite)

good work!

it does make me think that the big retailers, whether amazon, wiggle or whatever have maybe gone downhill a little / got too big maybe?

I'll give huge thumbs up to Shutt, made in the UK, lovely designs, very quick service, nice material, washes fine.

Yes, nice fit. dropped back, collar that stays up if zipped right up. I've never had any issues with any merino care wise - wash on a sports wash, 30º I think, no conditioner, coolish in the drier.

Not sure where it's made - just says 'new zealand alps merino'

The SC - that Shutt looks nice, I'll have a proper look.

Merino is ace, love it. got a couple of merino tops from howies. great for multi dayers, wear it hang it up and it doesnt smell too bad the next day. and really warm and comfy too.

Got a bit "addicted" to Merino and don't really like wearing cotton any more. Just regulates your temperate SO well!

Got stuff from Howies and Finisterre (great VFM for Merino) and a few other bits and bobs. It also resists smell really well - I've had polyprop tops that have nearly killed me with a hideous stench when I've forgotten to wash and dry them properly.
