Oly Wow. just did a quick search for Merino wool socks and base layers. Prices are scattered all over the place. Socks from about $10.00 a pair to over $40.00 a pair. Base layers the same thing. I also see a bunch of different blends. How do you determine which is best?
Next I was looking at bibs and ski pants, need more research. Feel like a complete dope and realizing how much I don't know. I want something good but I also don't want to overbuy. I will be spending most of this time inside a covered building so it will be somewhat wind protected. And again it won't be doing heavy outdoor work where I need heavy canvas duck to prevent rips/tears or burning holes.
I get merino wool socks from Sportsman Guide. They always have a three pack for a reasonable price. Haven't bought any lately, so I'm not up on the current price. I've always found them to be comfortable.
Actually, between Sportsmans Guide and Duluth Trading, you should be able to find all that you need.
