I've been singing the praises of merino wool in these pages for over five years. Most people have come around to the fact that merino wool is a super fiber; it's both sustainable and quite remarkable in its capabilities. Merino wool somehow manages to be comfortable in 95-degree heat, and it'll insulate you against below-freezing temperatures. Unlike synthetic fibers derived from petroleum, merino wool resists odors and is naturally breathable. What's not to love? The price.
\n\nMerino wool isn't cheap. That's why I love these merino T-shirts from Quince: They're just $42.
\n\nThe Quince All-Season T-shirt is 100 percent extra-fine merino wool with a 165-gsm weave, which is perfect even on the warmest summer days where I live. (Admittedly, I think the hottest it got this summer was 92 Fahrenheit). I like the relaxed fit here as well. It's neither skintight technical nor overly loose and baggy. It fits like a T-shirt is supposed to. That's what Quince does well in a number of categories: offer a solid, no-nonsense, competitively priced merino wool T-shirt that fits well and feels great. As an added bonus, Quince offers free shipping and free returns for 365 days. I haven't actually tested either—I haven't…
