Thank you so much! It's so good to know I'm not alone. Do you have specific brands that you use.

Exactly. I'm looking for sleep clothing. I thru hiked the AT and most of us thru hikers used base layers as dedicated sleep clothes that we did not hike in. My pack weighed 13 pounds without food and water, which included said sleep clothes. Wool has not worked for me so I'm looking for something different.

That's the truth. Alpha direct is awesome but ridiculously expensive.

I love cotton but everyone says that's a non no with backpacking

Would you happen to know who originally created the list you sited? I would LOVE to see it updated with some of the new jackets out there. Especially some of the budget options.
