Silk
"The Brown Truck of Joy" just delivered my new new set of heavy weight silk long-johns that I ordered from Cabela's.
I'm planning on using this stuff as a base layer, anyone else wear silk as a base layer? What are your opinions?

I use silk sock liners on really cold days and they're fantastic when combined with a medium weight smartwool hiker.

Silk is comfy, but I have not found it to be as durable as other materials for sport use.
