I never thought of that, I have switched to wool socks all year all day long, and wool jerseys on the bike. I don't know why I never tried wool before this year. It's like some magic fabric.
I had lots of foot dryness/sweating and odor problems for years which I was taking all sorts of things, even steroids for. The wool socks cleared it all up. wow.
Way back in scouting they kept telling us to wear wool socks but we wouldn't because they were too scratchy. With all these new wools (and now that I can afford better I suppose) there is no scratchiness.
The funny thing is all my sweaters are cotton, i have no wool ones. I'll have to hit up some thrift stores before it gets too cold and try it.
