Apparently there is a new base layer on the scene. Well not knew by any means, but finally discovered. It is called woolpower. And it is made in Sweden. I had the pleasure to try some of there baselayers, and I have to say it is pretty amazing stuff. I could go into a load of detail, but I would say that it is the best wool garment out there. I found icebreaker too delicate and smartwool too expensive. If you shop around you can get a good deal on them. Though US distribution is limited. Check it out and tell me what you think.
Here are some random reviews.
