Hi !
I just have to share the good experiance I had with one of the things I brought for my first week on the camino in May this year.
I brought a thin woolen t-shirt to wear during the days. That was really smart. The shirt is very thin and soft, and perfect both in the hot mid-day and the colder mornings. And it is the best when it comes to carrying a backpack, because you always get sweaty on your back, but with this shirt I never felt really wet or cold. And, it was not hotter than my other t-shirt, made of microfiber.
And best of all, It doesn't smell bad after some days, and when you wash it in cold water at the refugios it feels clean and smells good again. Much better then the smellegrino-microfiber-t-shirt I brought.
And, it dries fast. And don't itch. I also brought one with long sleeves. Perfect for early cold mornings and evenings.
The one I brought was a Norwegian brand called Devold, and they have a web-site called http://www.devold.no - hopefully they have english text there.
I guess that any woolen t-shirt will do, but make sure it's thin.
Best wishes for all pilgrims in life
