How do I clean a Mackinaw wool garment?
Professionally dry clean only, with a reliable dry cleaner you can trust. Point
out any spots or stains so your dry cleaner can treat them properly.
Do not machine wash, even in cold water, because wool can shrink unevenly or
dramatically.
What should I do if my Mackinaw wool garment gets wet?
Allow wet wool garments to dry at room temperature, away from direct heat and
sunlight. Let any mud dry, and then brush off. Always brush with the nap of the
fabric, not against it.
How do I properly store a Mackinaw wool garment?
Hang correctly: Use a hanger that fits, preferably a shaped or padded hanger.
Set the garment properly on the hanger. Hang pants with the pant legs aligned to
keep the creases straight.
Hang your wool clothes where they can breathe; avoid overcrowding. Empty the
pockets to avoid strain on pocket seams that could cause misshaping.
To prevent uneven or unnatural color fading, avoid prolonged exposure to
sunlight. Even so, being a natural fabric, it is common for wool garments to
fade over the years. Some colors naturally fade faster than others; Blue/Black
plaid usually fades the fastest.
Filson wool garments have NOT been chemically treated to repel moths. To prevent
moth damage, dry clean before storing, to remove the odors that attract moths.
Place mothballs, flakes, or crystals where your wool garments are stored. If
using moth crystals, do not hang garments in plastic garment bags, as the
chemicals in the moth crystals may cause the plastic to melt and damage your
clothes. Although the smell of cedar is repellent to moths, cedar balls or chips
alone do not guarantee that your wool clothes will be safe from moth damage.
Refresh wool clothes by hanging in a steamy bathroom. The steam helps remove
wrinkles. Hang wool garments in a well-ventilated area for a day or two to
dissipate the smell of mothballs or crystals. Common Uses Hunting, fishing,
hiking, camping, street wear
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.
