I would love to wear a nice old wool jersey but I am also allergic to wool...

Well then, it must be hell living in NZ, where the sheep outnumber the people about 1000:1 (or so I hear).

Back in the day I either wore nothing under the wool, or sometimes a cotton t-shirt.

Nowadays, a mesh undershirt or a silk one - or just tough it out.

As everyone else has said - Merino makes this a non-issue.
