      Why the negative votes?

      Personally I have only a hand full of t-shirts, all made of good 100 percent wool. I rotate them in use and I get maybe two weeks of time each before I have to wash them again because wool is not getting stenchy very fast, is anti bacterial and has a good climate while wearing, be it cold or hot weather. They get washed inside out and with pretty cold water, which is good for the fabric, and dry on air, because that’s energy efficient and also good for the fabric. I have them for like two years now and they look brand new, no pilling, no tears, no nothing. The wool flows and gleams like at the first day. Just. Do. Not. Buy. Trash.

        A single wool t-shirt costs $50. I am struggling to scrape together food for for the week, and you expect me to pay $400 for enough shirts to get through the week? I really doibt you are actually going 2 weeks between washes on a single shirt, and if you are i feel sorry for anyone who has to interact with you. Some of us have jobs that get sweaty and dirty and cant wear the same getup multiple days in a row.
