IIRC they now package stuff in such a way that these annoying charges (and I only got stung once) are now a thing of the past. There's a bit on their website about it.Noodley said:
I suspect the word 'gift' may be used.
Go for ground effect.
(Another happy customer.)
BTW, I notice ProBikeKit were selling some more of their s/s Descente merino jerseys for about £30! I bought one this summer - lovely delicate thing, but thing but it's contructed from separately knitted panels and the panels are cut so meanly there's just not enough material there tosewe together! Seams come apart almost right away.

Don't forget that it's still wool even though it doesn't feel like it - so not fab if you are allergic.
I have a merino hat, a sort of thin beanie, and it is infuriatingly itchy on the scalp. Mind you I do have most (well, almost all really) of it exposed to the wooliness.
That apart, I am a big fan and for walking/climbing base layers as well.
There's a woolly thick grey mitten that climbers used to use a lot called Dachsteins way back in the dark ages and I see the Everest guys back in the 1920s also used to use thin wool layers so there is indeed nothing new under the sun after all.
