Yessir, a little pricey, but if you can afford it, it's probably really good stuff. Interestingly enough, I have a Woolrich that is identical in pattern to their Rover shirt/jacket, but theirs is obviously a heavier build.

They have some nice patterns, but yes, spendy…

I have the Bowman's hat, thanks to a very generous gentleman on this forum. It is made by Woolrich by the way, for them, and very well built.

Looks really nice, but pricey….though wool will last a really long time too. A little out of my price range, I’m a fan of Asbell wool.

From: George D. Stout

Tom W, yessir. Most of that stuff will outlive even the youngest here if not drug behind the car or run over. I suspect good wool products will be around after all of the synthetic garments have gone to the landfill. When I was younger and employed, those prices wouldn't have looked so high either. :)))

From: Andy Man

this stuff is tight dense weave

nothing like Asbell or KOM

Quality alll the way- good fit for bow shooting

Johnson wooling mills has some good stuff too

Hey Gary, that picture was taken so many years ago the coat looks the same but I don't. ha ha.

Their stuff looks real nice. In looking it would require layers for colder temps. I like my Grey Wolf Woolens vest with lining for under or even other clothing the best outbof any wool offerings out. I don’t use wool as a primary garment

My wife bought me a wool jacket from L&L Bean 15 years still with a liner made in it kwow brand name I've had it 15 yeats also like the Stromy Kromer hat man I lobe that gal.

Well, that is nice looking gear... pricey yes BUT, I used to have a pro deal and purchased "big name" ski sports jackets for more than what these folks are asking for their wool hunting gear, and those ski/climbing wear jackets are starting to fall apart with hard use (after 10 years). The wool (with a tad bit of nylon) that is sewn well will compete with, and/or outlive the outdoor clothing sold by the ski/climbing companies in my opinion. So, to me, it looks like these things really are a lifetime purchase. One way to look at it. JW

None of it is loden fabric and thus not the best for outdoor applications.
