Anyone have a favorite wool slipper they want to recommend? After two days in the 30s here I've decided I will splurge on quality slippers this year.

I've been thinking about this already, though it may be outside of my budget until December...

Or a favorite light weight merino jersey?
I have one, a PI, purchased circa 2004. I cannot wear the current PI jerseys or shorts because they don't make most of their stuff in extra small. But, this jersey was purchased before vanity sizing took over and the small fits perfectly. I have never seen another jersey like this, in any brand. It's perfect for riding in the fall and for x country skiing, with a base layer.

I love my 2 Swobo short sleeve merino jerseys. They fit me perfectly although they ARE a size Large! To me their sizes run pretty darn small, but it is very nice for a base layer. I am trying to find a link to one though I am afraid it's been too long since they stopped making them. If I can find something I will post the link. I have this jersey in black and blue, and they are my "go-to" fall/early spring jerseys when it is too warm to break out my long sleeve heavier smartwool jersey.

Hey Crankin, what about THIS Icebreaker SS jersey? Pretty! According to the comments this runs quite small as well.

Too funny!! I was just trying to convince one of my riding buddies to try wool,
and she said it was too itchy for her. Poor lass. (Sorry, Downton Abbey withdrawal).
Anyhoo, Icebreaker rocks, as does Ibex. I am NEVER cold with wool next to my skinny, skin skin.
The price, on the other hand is rough to take. Crankin, "Orca" makes a nice small shirt too.

oh right on schedule this thread pops up. Wore my 18 micron wool longsleeved teeshirt for the first half of my ride yesterday, complete with I/O wool bra (from down under)
and smart wool socks.
I love my wool. All you people who think it is too itchy, keep thinking that, i don't mind.
