Hey forgive my ignorance, but where might I find wool socks and longjohns? Heavier weight longjohns. Thanks for any info. Embarassed

Longjohns are on sale everywhere these days. There are at least two "temporary" underwear sales in my neighborhood. Probaby lighter-weight than you are looking for, but 100% cotton.

Are you a guy, Charlie? I want to get my hands on some of those leggings the girls are wearing under their school uniforms.

Any Lotte Mart, Home Plus, or E-Mart should carry them.

Just ask for 내복 (Nay-Boke) if you can't find them.

Wal-mart, as well.

Emart sells cotton longjohns for about 7,000 won. If you want the real stuff ',Try Colombia or North Face polypropolene long johns at Lotte Department Stores (really light, dry quickly, and are very expensive).

Long johns begin at -15. Don't be a wuss.
