Fabric Story

The wooly flannel of our dreams. Wool and polyester intimately blended to create a dry, warm and very stable midweight (250gsm) wool flannel. Woven by Albini in northern Italy using yarns from the wool masters at Suedwolle. When done right, wool and poly combine to create a double dryness that’s amazing to wear in damp weather. Wool is hygroscopic, it sucks moisture out the air while remaining dry to the touch and is the only common insulation that keeps working while wet. Polyester on the other hand absorbs practically no moisture into its fibers (technically it absorbs 0.4% of its weight) while wicking water across its surface for faster evaporation. Plus the poly makes the wool dramatically easier to take care of. The net result is a dry delight, that’s as easy to wear as it is to take care of.
