Big fan of the LL Bean waterfowlers sweater. Have one in tan for ducks and one green for deer. wouldn't be without it in the layering

Who makes a wool top capable of keeping you warm in frigid temperatures without space age insulation over the top? I expect it will be Merino wool, but are there any wool tops that teamed with a base layer underneath capable of keeping you warm on late season hunts? I've been wearing hunting clothes for so long that use man-made insulation I'm wondering how good old wool stacks up to them. I know it better retains insulation ability when damp, but what about cold and dry?

I have the LL Bean commando-type wool sweater and it will flat out bake me alive if I am too active while wearing it. I also have an older Cabela's sweater with a windproof lining. I don't think they make it any longer. It also works really well.
