by Amedeo Exclusive 17 Nov 2017 0 Comments

As any gentleman knows, wool is the go-to staple for suits. But how much do you really know about nature’s most versatile renewable fibre?

You should already know that it is the textile fiber obtained from sheep (and certain other animals);  But the fact that it is crimped, elastic, and it grows in staples (clusters), makes it remarkably different than hair or fur and a natural choice for textiles. Here is everything you could possibly want to know about nature’s most versatile renewable fibre:

The Other Sources

(yes, there are other animal sources for wool)

Vicuña:

These animals provide some of the finest, softest wool out there. They’re also rare and can be shorn only once every three years. Translation: their wool is very expensive.

Goat:

Responsible for the suave sheen of mohair, which is often used in tuxedos and the softness of cashmere, both woven and knitted.

Tibetan Chiru Antelope:

This type of fiber is known as shahtoosh and it is soft, warm and very lightweight. It can be hard to find and that means it is quite expensive.

Arctic Musk Ox:

The wool fabric produced is also known as Quiviut. It is The undercoat of the Arctic Musk Ox is more than eight times warmer than sheep’s wool and much finer than cashmere.

Yak:

Each Yak yields between two to three pounds of underhair per year that is just as soft and fine as Merino, but much warmer and stronger. The best part is, it’s hypoallergenic.

Camel:

Camel hair is gathered in spring from the molting undercoats of Bactrian Camels. It is soft and plush and famously used for camel-hair polo coats.

What is Lorem Ipsum? Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum. Why do we use it? It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
