Most sustainable brands use imported Merino wool. Shipping fabrics around the world has a heavy carbon footprint.
Vähemmän believes in supporting the domestic supply chain and craftsmanship that exists here.
We use American Woolen luxury fabrics for all wool woven styles.
Merino wool is naturally antimicrobial so it can be worn longer, requiring less dry cleaning chemicals.
Merino conducts heat and wicks moisture better than conventional wool, supporting multi season dressing and less apparel consumption.
Synthetics such as acetate, rayon, spandex and polyester are commonly used in linings. Synthetics are Petroleum based.
Vähemmän linings are always made of sustainable materials. We never use synthetics even as part of a blend.
