Wool barely itches

The fibers of wool are very fine and therefore sting less or not noticeably. Compared to a human hair, the diameter of a wool fiber is almost 5 times smaller. Therefore, most people find wool a particularly pleasant product to wear directly on the skin. Studies show that only a very small percentage of people experience irritation from wool clothing. See, and so that’s where we get the itch again, and it’s good news for wearers of Russian wool socks!
