I know you get what you pay for, but I'm a little hesitant to pay. I have a habit of buying clothing items on sale or clearance, and I'm so tight I just squeak at having to pay over $50 a backpacking clothing item…even though I'll pay $20 for a headnet.
Are there any offbrands of merino wool out there that are decent? I was looking at the backcountry.com brand, does anybody have experience with it?
