FAQ
What do you mean when you say 100% virgin wool?
100% virgin wool is virgin because it comes straight from the sheep--not trimmings or leftovers recycled from the processing of other wool fabrics.
This allows us to use the longest fibers to weave our fabrics, which is important because longer fibers are inherently stronger than shorter fibers. This makes it unnecessary for us to blend synthetic fibers such as nylon or polyester into our wool to make it stronger.
Thus, we believe our 100% virgin wool is more resilient and long lasting than wool blends, and you get the full benefit of the wool fibers working for you.
How warm is your 24 oz. Mackinaw wool? Do you offer a temperature chart for your Mackinaw fabrics?
We do not offer a temperature chart for our Mackinaw fabrics because their warmth will differ from one person to another, depending on a person's metabolism, and other factors. What we can tell you is that our 24 oz. Mackinaw wool is one of the warmest fabrics that we offer in a garment--this is why we use it to make so many of our garments, hats, caps, and even our Style 902 Highlander Boots. You will see it perform most effectively when worn as part of a layering system that may include long johns, shirts, and a sweater or vest.
Is Mackinaw wool water repellent?
Wool fabrics are naturally water repellent, and more importantly, retain heat even when wet. 100% virgin wool will absorb up to 30% of its own weight in moisture without becoming damp or clammy.
How noisy is wool in the woods?
Wool is very quiet--it doesn't make noise as you walk through brush or ground cover, which is greatly valued by hunters in particular.
What are your most popular colors in 24 oz. Mackinaw wool?
Our most popular color in 24 oz. Mackinaw wool is Charcoal, followed by Red/Black and Forest Green. |
