As a huge fan of both Patagonia Capilene and Patagonia Wool shirts and layers, how is the Ibex shirt different? Both Patagonia Wool and Ibex Shak are made out of merino wool, any benefit one over the other?

Not really a benefit, but a difference. The Patagonia is more of a t-shirt cut, while the ibex has more of an athletic cut. Both use 100% Merino. Think of the Shak Sport as what you'd get with the thickness of Capilene 3, but instead it is made of !00% Merino vs. recycled plastics into polyester, and it has a body hugging cut.
