Wool clothing for cycling - anyone?

Hello,
I am wondering if anyone wears wool jerseys or shorts when cycling. I've heard numerous stories about the better feel of wool, less smell, high quality and so on. For a long time I was considering purchase of some wool jerseys but i always backed off because of my experience with standard wool clothing. Namely, my sweaters and other wool clothing items tend to stretch after repeated washing.
I wonder if wool jerseys and shorts are made differently so they can retain their shape after repeated washing and extended wear. Can someone with experience tell me what to expect from wool clothing for bikers?
Thanks.
