I came across this article http://www.wildsnow.com/202/wool-vs-synthetic-backcountry-clothing-more/ on my search and purchase for a new pair of gloves. My previous Arc’teryx pair had a hole melted on one of the fingers when I placed it on a rock next to the camp fire to dry. This got me thinking if I should purchase another pair of synthetic gloves with the intent to use them for camping and backpacking.
These are the companies mentioned in the article that carries merino wool sportswear:
