It's interesting how wool is being re-discovered as a fantastic fabric for winter wear. I get a kick out of people I see on the trail well bundled on the torso (fleece, down jackets) but wearing just a pair of jeans over their legs. Personally, I like to be warm and comfortable over my whole body - not just my torso and arms!

One thing I really like about wool is, unlike poly-pro, it doesn't get foul smelling as fast when you're wearing it day after day.
