Please help me. DD Toms say they are made with 100% wool. The inside is soft and lined. Someone said they need to be checked for Shatnez? Does anyone know anything about Toms possibly having shatnez?

"They are made from canvas or cotton fabric and are now manufactured in many styles including a cordones, botas, wedges, stitchouts, and wrap boots. The sole is constructed of rubber."

Mr. Google is your friend.

The problem with this story is that they didn't follow up after.
No Shatnez lab in Israel has confirmed that they found a problem with toms. Many Labs are asking for first had information about the girl and lab she went to but it has been crickets since.
All the labs who checked Tom's after have not found any being a problem...
I feel bad if anyone threw them out without testing.
Of course if they say contains wool, I would take them in for testing...
