Hey! Thanks for the comment. Gotta say to each their own on this one. I find wool can get too hot for my feet!

I wanted to keep this service extremely affordable is well and I have a feeling using Merino Wool would increase the cost!

Thanks again, I appreciate it.

You're welcome. Yes, merino would increase the cost massively. I pay 5GBP per pair. High end sports clothing is made from merino: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merino#Athletic_clothing_and_o...

The combination of comfort and temperature regulation is unbeatable, especially if you're prone to sweaty feet.
