I have tried Alpaca and Cashmere socks and similar accessories off and on through the years with mixed results. Generally, I ended up settling on good quality "no itch" sheep wool with Icebreaker being a favorite brand for things like longjohns and vests.

I am interested in Yak wool/"down" accessories like beanies and scarfs that aren't priced exorbitantly like some Social Media crazed products or specialty brands for the ultra-rich.

What stores or vendors are good for online purchases? I am in the USA so any sources there would be appreciated but, I am not opposed to ordering out of Asia or Europe.

For anyone that has tried some Yak wool clothing options, how does it compare to good quality sheep wool? Also interested in any brands of awesome sheep wool products similar to the Icebreaker brand I am familiar with.

TIA,
Sid
