It goes against "Doctrine" but I like bib shorts in particular Castelli or DeMarchi, I find wool boxer briefs with MUSA shorts fine for rides under 20 miles but for the longer stuff I go to the bibs. I hear great things about Ibex wool blend bibs and intend to try them some day. As for Jerseys 5 years ago it was basically 100% poly blend in my closet and now its nearly all Merino wool jerseys/polos/t shirts love stuff and can't really imagine wearing a poly jersey again.
