Austrian Sheep Wool / Walk

Our traditional wool jackets are manufactered with original Schladminger Loden.The Milling Machine is the heart of Loden cloth production. In fact the wet cloth is submitted to a kind of torture. It is milled until it becomes felted, thereby making it not only strong and warm but also water resistent. The best results are usually achieved by using the original machinery: To this day, the Schladminger Loden, a coarse, robust cloth made from Styrean sheep wool, is produced on the original Hammer-Milling Machine first used in 1888. However, the whole process is not finished with milling: Raising, spreading, shearing, pressing and decatising are the other vital stages before the finished cloth achieves the final, desired proven quality.
