Timeless Yet Trendy: Discover Double-Faced Wool

What is the double face wool?

 

It is made of two pieces of fabric, woven together with fine thread.

On the garment, there is a small seam allowance, so the garment can be extremely light weight, clean, seamless on both sides.

This detail gives it that very luxurious feel.

A sharp knife is used to open the fabric before closing the garment. A lot of people don't really understand the complexity of the process.

The closing of the seams is done by hand.

If you don't have skilled handwork and quality fabric, double-faced will lose its luxury look.

Few places and skilled workers even do this any more.

 

 

The difference between double face wool and simple wool:

 

As its name implies, double-faced wool is an exquisite fabric constructed from two

independent layers of fine woolen cloth, meticulously joined to create a material that

is, in essence, reversible. This allows either side to be worn as the face of the

garment. Certain designs ingeniously combine two different patterns or colors,

offering a strikingly distinct reverse side that is equally polished. A hallmark of its

superior construction is the virtually invisible seam integration along the edges.



In terms of performance, double-faced wool is notably lighter in weight and offers

superior warmth compared to standard wool fabrics. This is achieved by utilizing two

high-quality, lightweight wool layers, which trap an insulating layer of air between

them to effectively shield against cold temperatures. Consequently, it provides the

warmth of a heavy winter coat without the associated bulk, resulting in exceptional

comfort and wearability.

 

From a stylistic perspective, the dual-layer structure imparts a distinct advantage:

enhanced structural integrity and a refined, sculpted silhouette. The fabric possesses

a characteristically elegant drape, allowing it to fall beautifully and maintain its

shape, which underscores its premium quality and sophisticated appeal.

 

 

How to care for double face wool:

 

High-quality wool often possesses natural self-cleaning properties. For light dust or

surface dirt, simply gently wipe the garment with a damp, soft cloth. If the garment

hasn't been cleaned for an extended period or has developed a stain, we recommend

a professional dry cleaning service.

 

For storage, always hang your coat on a suitable clothes hanger to prevent creases

from folding. If possible, place it inside a breathable garment bag for added

protection against dust.
