The Ultimate Guide to Our 5-Star Low Wool Woolen Jacket Fabrics
Low wool woolen jacket fabrics represent a brilliant fusion of sustainability, durability, and modern textile engineering. For designers and manufacturers seeking a robust material with a reduced environmental footprint, this category offers a compelling solution. Our mill is proud to be at the forefront of producing these innovative textiles, specializing in heavyweight, striped coatings that are as kind to the planet as they are to the touch.
What Are Low Wool Woolen Fabrics?
Traditionally, woolen fabrics for jackets (often called “coating”) are known for their warmth, resilience, and classic appearance. Low wool woolen jacket fabrics maintain these desirable properties while incorporating a significant percentage of other fibers, such as recycled polyester or other sustainable materials. This blend creates a fabric that is not only more cost-effective but also aligns with contemporary eco-conscious values. The “woolen” spinning process itself creates a soft, airy, and often brushed yarn, resulting in a fabric with excellent insulation and a full, luxurious hand.
Unveiling Our Heavyweight Stripe Collection
Our flagship collection is built around a specific, high-performance type of low wool woolen jacket fabric. Let’s break down the specifications that make this fabric a top choice for fall and winter outerwear.
Composition & Sustainable Innovation
Our fabric is engineered with a 35% Wool / 65% Other composition. The “other” is key here; we primarily use fibers sourced from post-industrial recycled wool fabric waste. This commitment to circular fashion significantly reduces waste and resource consumption, making our woolen jacket fabrics a responsible choice for forward-thinking brands. You can learn more about the importance of recycled materials in fashion from the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, a global leader in promoting a circular economy.
Weight and Durability
With a substantial weight of 720 grams per square meter (gsm), this fabric falls into the heavyweight coating category. This translates to a jacket that provides exceptional warmth, wind resistance, and long-lasting durability. It’s designed to withstand seasons of wear while maintaining its structure and appearance, making it ideal for coats, peacoats, and rugged jackets.
Aesthetic and Design
We offer this versatile woolen jacket fabric in a range of stripes, from classic, subtle patterns to bold, fashion-forward designs. The color palette is equally extensive, moving from versatile dark tones like charcoal and navy to vibrant, on-trend fashion colors. This variety allows for maximum creative freedom in your designs.
The Signature Soft Hand Feeling
Despite its robust weight, our fabric boasts a surprisingly soft hand feeling. The woolen spinning process and careful finishing techniques result in a surface that is lofty and pleasant against the skin, eliminating the scratchiness sometimes associated with traditional wool. This fancy design, combined with its comfort, enhances the overall luxury and wearability of the final garment.
