    You know, to be honest, I just don't trust that this wool is what it claims to be.
    For that kind of price, and they come from China, made supposedly from imported Australian merino wool....well I just don't believe it for a second.

    Look here, these $30 women's Terramar long johns claim to be "100% merino", made in China:

    Then, on another page:
    http://www.sierratradingpost.com/p/2...or-Women-.html
    they claim to be not only "merino wool", but also they say they are "Fabric is 80% polyester, 20% wool"....and right below that they state they are "100% polyester"....
    Then they are labeled as "seconds" from China. Just inspires confidence, doesn't it?
    LIARS!!!!!

    OK....so they are 80% polyester/100%polyester/merinowool seconds from China. Maybe they are made from lead?

    Um, i think I'll pass.
