What about those Genuine Sheepskin seat covers?  They are wool,
right...and I have some that are about 20 yrs old that are in fine
shape...if I could get them back from my S.O. they would be in my van right
now...Very comfortable, and counter-intuitive that something so warm and
cozy in winter should also be good in hot weather..  Must be that it's a
natural fiber or somesuch thing.
