    You guys have my attention: how is the sizing on the Dagsmejan’s and how do they wear with wash and time? Stay true to size after multiple washings? I’ve been looking at the shirts/shorts combo but also intrigued by the pants. Do you recommend one over the other or is it more preference?

    Edit: Also, are they machine washable or need special care?

      @goosehd Sizing is in-line with their sizing charts, and I wash and dry without any shrinkage. I will say that the wool is best left to dry flat, rather than throwing in the dryer to extend its life, but the other materials I just treat like the rest of my laundry and wash and dry with reckless abandon, and I've never had an issue. Where do you live, Goose? I'm sure some woolies would be so nice if you're somewhere cold! When my wife gave me my first set, it was the long sleeve/pants combo, and I was skeptical as a boxer briefs and a tee kind of guy. I'm totally a convert now. Long pants are awesome. So comfortable from head to toe.

            @Giles What if I told you there's something you could put on for sleeping that's as exciting (I'm really struggling with word choice right now because @goosehd will pounce on anything that remotely sounds suggestive 🙂 ) as something you really enjoy wearing during the day?

                      @Giles something about a boat and floating. Seeing how you are a licensed captain, it makes sense.

                        @seawolf Thank you for the advice and I’m hovering over the buy button. Just need to work out colour.

                          @goosehd Yep, sizing is in line with their chart. I`m an M basically everywhere with every brand 🙂
                          I use their NATTCOOL technology in summer to stay cool. They are barely noticeable while wearing.

                              @giles that's exactly what I was going to suggest.

                              @goosehd Heck yeah!

                              @Dmart I'm also medium across the brand, and I'm 6'1" and about 190 lbs

                                @Dmart have you tried nattrecover? I’m wearing some right now. The claims sound like snake oil to me, but they sure are comfortable.

                                  Brings up a good question: I’m looking at the Natwell and wonder if either of you have tried that?

                                    @goosehd Their claims about temperature regulation are consistent with my experience for sure. Is that what you're referring to with that particular material?

                                      @seawolf yes. Temperature regulation sounds is my main attraction.

                                        @seawolf Not yet, but want to considering that I do quite a high volume of training, it is worth a try.

                                          @goosehd Then yes, go for it. Are you looking at that material for the summer?

                                          Also, does your wife happen to sleep in nightgowns or PJs? My wife loves their nightgowns.
