What’s so great about wool?
Unparalleled for centuries in the weaving world, this natural fiber has remarkable properties.
Lanolin-rich
Lanolin provides its trademark luster and softness, repels dust and dirt, and protects the fiber from breaking, shedding, and staining.
The Original Smart Textile
A hygroscopic fiber, wool reacts to its surrounding temperature, becoming cooling in warm temperatures and warming in cool temperatures.
Strength and Elasticity
Easily reused and recyclable, wool fibers can bend back on themselves up to 20,000 times without breaking. With proper care and repairs, it will stand the test of time.
Biodegradable
Wool breaks down quickly, returning its nutrients to the soil without releasing plastic microfibers into the environment, like its synthetic competitors.
Sustainable
Because a sheep’s fleece grows back after shearing, wool is a natural, renewable fiber. After hemp, it consumes less energy and has a smaller carbon footprint than other textile fibers.
