Big fan of wool. It’s amazing. Check out the LL bean commando wool sweater. It was made for tough use. There are a plethora of them on eBay. They come in crew neck and Henley style. Tan, grey and olive. It’s modeled after the British SAS “wooly pulley”. $60-80 used.

I’ve purchased a few this way that were brand new !

Elbow patches are a must for me for durability purposes.
I just need to get out to some thrift shops as I currently don’t have any suitable for hiking!
