    I hate winter. Switching all my winter wardrobe to wool has made it at least less sweaty under all the layers. Seems like every winter thing is made of some synthetic fiber that acts like wearing a plastic bag when you sweat. Wool is the way.

      Wool is the only (that I am aware of,) fabric that will keep you warm after it’s wet. Cotton is the worst, it sticks to your skin when wet.

      If you are caught outside, stranded, they say to make sure to take layers off, because if you sweat, you die.
