Funny. I just saw your post about this on Facebeef a while ago.
I have been using wool socks for a long time. Even through the summer they are superior. My recent mission is to try to switch to Merino wool for as much of my clothing as possible. Cold is one thing, but humidity is really nasty in cotton and this Cincinnasti weather really needs breathable anti-funk of Merino wool.
I made the post on FB and was like this feels like it could be a steemit post. So here it is. I need to edit one more thing and I'm going to post this to the book.
But yeah the antimicrobial properties of wool. Incredible.
