Why wool?
WOOL used to be something your grandma would use to knit your Christmas jumper with, but is now becoming one of the trendiest eco-friendly textiles on the market. We work almost completely with wool in our collections. WOOL is a renewable and natural material, which makes it one of our most sustainable material resources in the world.
WOOL IS GREAT!
• WOOL is a living material that adjusts to you body temperature. When it is warm, moisture and body heat is absorbed by the wool and transported away from the body. When it is cold, warmth is retained in the millions of microscopic air pockets naturally found in wool.
• WOOL keeps you warm even it it’s wet (it can absorb 30% of it’s weight in moisture), and is more elastic than synthetic fibres.
• WOOL is naturally odour resistant
• A micron (micrometre) is the measurement used to express the diameter of a wool fibre. The lower microns are the finer and softer are the fibres.
• Like other natural fibers, it breaths
• WOOL is a renewable resource, made for recycling and 100% natural.
THE WOOL LAYER ENABLES YOU TO KEEP A WARM, COMFORTABLE AND CONSTANT BODY TEMPERATURE WHICH IS IMPORTANT FOR MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE
We work almost completely with wool, but we also incorporate new blends and modern knitting techniques. This results in well made, classic and hardwearing clothes, clothes that will give you many long years of enjoyable use, which is another important factor when talking about sustainable fashion - the longivity of the garment.
