Wow, that's pretty much the exact opposite of what others have said. It'll be interesting to use the Icebreaker stuff I bought and see for myself. Obviously I hope you're wrong, but we'll see.Quote:

FYI: Capilene stinks, but the white capilene (undyed) stinks least. Strange but definitely true.
Oh, and icemang isg funnyg.
[QUOTE=Treepinner]Whatever you do, don't buy into the merino wool hype. Sucky, sucky, suck, suck. Slow drying, freezes your ass off when you stop, stinks, and still scratchy. I've tried Icebreaker, Smartwool, and Arcteryx; free samples, glad I didn't pay twice as much to find out how lame it is. Modern midweight synthetics are way better.[QUOTE]
Treepinner's experience is the exact opposite of mine. Some people are super sensitive to wool though, so that could explain part of it. And some people, well they just stink whatever they do. :the_finge:Quote:
