Wool, of course, is great. Two caveats; it will felt over time (unless you use superwash wool) and it's warm. It's supremely breathable, but definitely warm. I've made a couple pair with fingering/sock weight superwash, which is fairly fine, but it hasn't been cold enough yet to try them. FYI the cotton/acrylic can be thrown in the washer and dryer. I may not ride enough, but for me it takes awhile for the stank to show up. Fortunately for me I have all the spares.

Thanks! Sorry your wind blockers didn't work.

Hey, if either of you want to try a pair, I have a bagful but not that much interest here. I'd be happy to send anyone a pair for $10 plus postage. PM me. If this is allowed.
