Why Our Wool Is Different
We source fine wool in limited quantities, constantly searching for the next exceptional fabric. Because of our manufacturing scale and commitment to quality, stocking the exact same wool year after year often isn't possible.
Much like fine wines, every batch of wool has its own unique character. Variations in color, texture, and feel are part of what makes each garment special.
Our standards are high, which means we pass on a significant amount of wool and fabric that larger suppliers may gladly purchase. While many products may appear similar at first glance, we believe exceptional garments begin with exceptional materials.
That's why we do what we do. We are committed to building the best garments possible and will never cut corners or lower our standards.

Our Shade Shirt fabric is part of our continuous experimentation with the performance of natural fibers. Does your ultra-stretch polyester UV shirt leave something to be desired? We built ours from a breezy, traditional linen-style weave, with a more formal shirt profile from a timeless era. The Shade Shirt features our signature internal double-layered elbows and two oversized pleated chest pockets with USA-made snaps.
These quality threads are 55% hemp and 45% cotton, and are certified organic. It is a midweight fabric at 12 oz, and is a loose weave. It is tough but soft, and will continue to soften with use and washes. Our Shade Shirt is available in Verdant Green and Khaki, with a sun hood or a traditional folding collar. Stay cool, stay hidden, look sharp with our Shade Shirt.
Fabric is washed and dried but will shrink slightly with high heat tumbling. Recommended hang dry. Order one size up for shrink-to-fit, or order true to size for low heat tumble/hang dry.

Summary
Fit Notes
It should be noted that all bodies are different and this is just a reference. Our garments are guaranteed to fit with free size exchanges. If you are between sizes, go with the larger size.
| Height | Weight | Size |
| 5' to 5'5" | up to 120 lbs | XS |
| 5'5" to 5'8" | up to 145 lbs | S |
| 5'8" to 5'10" | up to 165 lbs | M |
| 5'10" to 6' | up to 195 lbs | L |
| 6' to 6'3" | up to 220 lbs | XL |
| 6' to 6'5" | up to 250 lbs | 2XL |

Our garments should fit generously. If you are in between sizes, size up for a jacket and shirt, and size down for a vest. Vests should fit more snugly on the body. Wool shrinks so the initial fit should be a bit loose. It will snug up, shrink, and learn your body's shape over the years!
Females should order two sizes down for all unisex cuts. Order your normal size for our women-specific cuts.
Larger sizes available upon request. Order the largest size available in our store and send us an email with your order number and fit dimensions. Custom sizing will be built to spec and are not resizable or exchangeable.
Our wool will shrink to fit slightly after extended use. This is why we recommend sizing up if you are unsure or in between.
Our garments are guaranteed to fit and guaranteed against defects. We will exchange anything for the right size (keep it in like new condition please). We can adjust sleeve length and body length on some of our styles for a better fit. We are a small, accessible team and make each garment with joy and intention. We are happy to chat fit if you have questions.
