Here's what I think of three warm winter pairs with pockets, and three lightweight summer or base layer pairs. I hope this helps you find the right wool leggings for your wardrobe! Links below 💕

Great review 🎉 You explain things so well. I’m going to check out more of your reviews. Thank you from Michigan!

[@yukinaito4149]

Your review really helped me in finding a perfect pair of leggings. Thank you for the review!

[@KenshoQuest]

You’re welcome! Which ones did you decide upon?

[@yukinaito4149]

@@KenshoQuest I've picked Woolx for winter and Unbound for summer. All the details in your video is really helpful.

[@annbeth6730]

Very useful content

[@KenshoQuest]

Thanks! Do you wear Merino wool clothing?

[@shawnavancouver]

Thanks for the review - it is super helpful as I transition my travel wardrobe to merino. Just a heads up that your promo code with Unbound Merino did not work this morning when I attempted to use it. I am in Canada so maybe it is only for US orders.

[@KenshoQuest]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for the heads up. I’ll look into that.

[@annphan6111]

Beyond soft is okay to use on wool?

[@KenshoQuest]

@@annphan6111 Yes, Unicorn Beyond Soft is perfect for wool. Unicorn Baby laundry products were originally developed for wool, but can also be used on other fibers. I use on both wool and cotton. 🌺 Heidi

[@taniadelossantos7937]

Which would you say are the softest? Besides the $300 ones lol

[@KenshoQuest]

The Woolx Piper Pocket leggings. After I washed them they became very soft and fluffy on the inside. 🌺 Heidi

[@emilyveltman-vz8ln]

Tell us about your toe socks! Are they wool too?

[@KenshoQuest]

This pair is cotton, from Don Quijote in Japan. I do have a pair of wool blend toe socks from Montbell, which is also a Japanese company, but they have a US website. Another brand that makes wool toe socks, that I haven’t tried yet, is Injinji. 🌺 Heidi

[@carolineyunker9]

Too much nylon in IBEX's leggings.

[@KenshoQuest]

Yeah, more than I would prefer in this particular pair. Ibex does offer 100% Merino Wool Baselayer bottoms (Woolies 2).
