not wool

I want wool because it will still keep you warm if it is holding something like 20% of its weight in water. As one who loves the rugged outdoors and boating, this is an admirable feature. I was dismayed to get this product and read the interior label that says it is 74% polyester. Until it is over 50% somthing, that something should not be the primary term of definition. This is a polyester shirt with some wool.

If 74% polyester does not bother you, then I'll say it fits me very well. Washing? With that much polyester, it should wash up quite nicely in your household washing machine. Both admirable features, but not what I thought I was buying. If it says 'wool' and nothing else, I expect it to be 'wool' and nothing else.
