At first touch
Warmth, resilience and a remarkable ability to recover.
From airy and springy to dense and enveloping; comfort depends heavily on fiber fineness, yarn and finish.
What it can do well
- Insulates while managing moisture
- Naturally resists odor and often needs less washing
- Good woven wool can tailor and repair beautifully
What deserves a closer look
- Cashmere grade claims without useful specification
- Weak, fuzzy yarns that pill immediately
- Moth risk and unsuitable high-friction construction
Living with it
- Air between wears and brush woven cloth
- Wash sparingly according to structure
- Store clean with breathable moth protection
