Review on πŸ”₯ Ultimate Warmth and Comfort: MERIWOOL Mens 100% Merino Wool Thermal Pants by Ruben Saunders

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Overrated and overpriced.

I think these prices are too high. First, let me say that I ride my bike year-round on a Midwestern college campus, so I have a lot of different base layers and experiences with cold weather. The quality seems good but the insulation I get for the weight and price just isn't worth it. I have 30/70 wool/poly pants and they block the wind and insulate much better. These 100% wool pants only outperform my other base layers in terms of moisture wicking and faster drying times. Which isn't much. I've also noticed that when they're sweaty they have a strong smell of sulfur or cat pee, which is very unpleasant, but when they dry out they're virtually odorless. I would recommend Meriwool Top Base Coat but can't recommend this bottom base coat at this price point.
