I'm looking for a new midlayer, and instead of going out and grabbing a fresh Armada/Oakley/Jiberish/Saga sweater, why not show a smaller comapny some support?

I've looked at Phar North, but if there's anyone who you guys think deserves the support, or if there's any NS user owned companies with good stuff, I'd rather put my 60 bucks in their pocket.

Cotton sucks for riding, go for merino. Check out www.io-bio.ca - Canadian company, australian wool, not sure where it's manufactured but it's a pretty small company and good service. I've had one of their hoodies for 4 years (mostly worn off the hill) and it's worn very well. 50% off some of their stuff too. OK it's not a ski brand or tall-fit, but you asked for a midlayer.

Looks like good stuff, part poly, and suits my broke student budget.

Ordered!

Wow! That is cheap for merino. It's like 1/3 the cost of icebreaker

Yoke isn't really an up-and-coming or new, it's pretty damn popular actually
