Ok, I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed...

I just realized TE has a "Wool Apparel" specialty shop.

MmmmmmmmMMMMMM, tasty!

And I already have a pair of some breathable man-made coffee socks, and here are two (count 'em TWO!) pairs of wool coffee socks! http://www.teamestrogen.com/products.asp?pID=12475

[Sheesh]

I just bought my first piece of wool, the Ibex Shak jersey that was on steepandcheap the other day (in a very beautiful orange color!). It arrived today and I couldn't wait to put it on. It fit perfectly, but was a bit itchy. Will that get better as it gets washed or is that how it will always feel? I'm sure it would be fine with a long sleeved shirt underneath, but not great with just a t-shirt.

Funny...when I was a teenager and did outdoor stuff, wool was all the rage. A number of (....many) years later when I became active again, I got pooh-poohed at Eddie Bauer (which used to be more outdoorsy) when I asked for wool stuff and ended up with a bunch of wicking stuff.

I always liked the wool...so I am glad to have some again!
