ALL NATURAL & RENEWABLE SOURCE

Wool is a naturally occurring protein-based fiber that originates from the skin of sheep. It is one of the most efficient forms of all-weather protection known to mankind, and despite various attempts by science to replicate wool’s unique properties, it remains unparalleled.

BIODEGRADABLE & RECYCLABLE

When buried in soil, natural wool fibers will decompose quickly, unlike synthetic fibers that take a long time to degrade.

NATURAL INSULATOR & BREATHABLE

Wool fiber has the ability to absorb and release water vapor as the humidity levels in the surrounding air fluctuate. A great choice of fabric for wool hunting clothes.

ODOR RESISTANT & HELPS WITH ALLERGIES

Wool possesses breathable characteristics that allow it to absorb odorous sweat and moisture and subsequently release it into the atmosphere before any bacterial growth can occur.

WATER, MILDEW, STAIN RESISTANT

The wool fibers are coated with a waxy substance that repels all forms of liquid, while also enabling it to absorb up to 30% of its weight in moisture

STRONG AND LONG LASTING

Wool fibers exhibit remarkable tear resistance and can be bent back on themselves over 20,000 times without breaking, whereas cotton fibers can only bend back approximately 3,200 times.

FIRE RESISTANT

Wool is used by firefighters for their clothing, and bedding manufacturers employ it in their products to comply with fire codes. When wool comes into contact with fire, it typically smolders and then dies out.
