Wool kicks ***. I use wool outer socks with polypropylene liners for skiing so my toes stay toasty. Wick that sweat away from your skin, and even wet wool socks insulate very well. Same goes, it seems, for the fur/hide of any cold-climate animal. Whether evolved or designed, it works. Now if I could just find a wild nauga and a buck gortx on my next hunt....

Next on list - toque made from baby seal blubber.

Well then... is there anyone who makes a plain wool (not tartan) heavyweight knockabout kilt? Could be machine-sewn, for that matter. Something cheaper than a traditional hand-sewn tartan tank, but with all the right properties for some hard core outdoor activity? That would be ideal.

I'm picturing a "Woolrich" type of kilt, sort of like the UK Workman's might be called the "Carhartt." [Coming soon to a Cabela's near you...]

And pockets! Pockets are good.

If ya know where I can get something like that, let me know!
