Duncs Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 Not as warm as polypropylene but handles getting wet much better. So a trade off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fireman_DJ Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 I have a set of Merino Wool thermals (can't remember the brand, bought them in Aussie Disposals) and compared to my polypropylene the wool is warmer and retains there stretch.The poly's I have are all stretched out and loose now (not what you want in a thermal), but the wool is still going strong minus a couple of small holes.More expensive, but next time I need to buy more thermals I'm going for wool (also has the added benefit of being more fire resistant. Pretty handy because we can't wear synthetic clothing under our firefighting gear). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jindydiver Posted September 6, 2015 Report Share Posted September 6, 2015 Love my icebreakers spencers, only hassle is if the moths or silverfish find them over summer and you get a few holes LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
