Why would one boil wool? It's simple. The wool compresses and and the weave tightens, creating a dense, structured cloth that is durable, warm and weather-resistant. At first glance, it looks similar to a flannel, but this boiled wool has a somewhat more crisp and rigid drape, offering clean, tailored lines along with all its performance benefits.
