The thing about wool is, it doesn't develop a smell or start to feel gross after wearing it. In fact you can wear it again and again before it needs washing, and it doesn't even *feel* dirty even when you've been wearing it several days (ask me how I know!). Plus if you wash it gently or hand wash it, it seems to last forever. This isn't the case with cotton or synthetic materials, which nevermind smelling, also begin to feel gross as soon as the second time you wear it unless you wash it first. For this reason I haven't used polyester or even polyblend cotton for undergarments in years. Cotton, maybe but synthetic definitely not. Of course your mileage may vary.
