Absolutely! You and I meet because of Wool& and Woolx. You know I share your disappointment in smartwool socks. I haven't yet tried wool underwear but now will investigate.
I'm a big fan of Bombas socks. They do offer a merino wool option, but I always buy the cotton and I've never had a blister problem, even while running. I think the key is that they're seamless. I'm probably in the minority, but for long trips, I don't mind checking a bag. There's something so freeing about dropping your heavy bag on the conveyor belt and walking away. Of course I'd never check any item that was absolutely essential. I definitely prefer natural fibers for everyday wear and for travel, but I like cotton, linen, and wool equally. For travel, I'll wear my bulkiest items on the plane, so it's only lightweight stuff that gets packed.

And yes, love my Merino underwear, and shirts… look forward to trying a dress. Especially nice, to get them, “at the source” in New Sealand
