If you’re serious about wool, you should understand a few things about modern synthetics and how they stack up against wool. Wool is the original High Tech fabric! The fact that these synthetic fabric manufacturers have corrupted the word “fleece” is telling. Many of today’s outerwear companies are saying their poly-this or micro-that garments are more waterproof or windproof, but to be honest, the ones we’ve tried that were waterproof and windproof were nowhere near breathable. We wound up wet from the inside from sweat, even in cold weather, and that is a disaster in the making. People have used wool for a thousand years. Today, a new generation of hunters is learning how versatile this fiber can be. Wool can be spun and woven into a lightweight cloth, heavy fabric or something in between. Our Sleeping Indian® wool is an excellent insulator yet is also fairly water-resistant. Even when wet, our wool works to keep you warm, which is a tremendous advantage to bow hunters contending with bad weather. Whether you’re navigating through dense conifer forests, slipping quietly through oak brush on a crisp winter morning, or waiting on-stand during an all-day drizzle, Sleeping Indian will keep you warm in cold weather, while our woven wool provides the ultimate in silence.
