What Makes Pendleton Wool So Wonderful?

What Makes Pendleton Wool So Wonderful?

For over 150 years, Pendleton Woolen Mills has set the standard for American style. With origins in producing sophisticated Indian trade blankets, they’ve since brought that same weaving and color know-how to one of their signature staples, the flannel shirt.

Over the years, styles, patterns and fabric weights have changed, but one thing remains the same: the consistent quality. So what makes a piece from Pendleton better than all the rest? Why the wool of course.

It’s Easy Care

The elasticity in wool fiber makes it naturally wrinkle-resistant and prone to holding its shape, which means you’ll never need to press or iron, not to mention clean it each time. Wool’s resilience, low static and hairy surface help to repel dirt. Just brush and air out between wearings and you’ll be good to go.

It Lasts

The beauty of your shirt will never fade, thanks to the strength of the fibers and their natural resistance to water, stains and fire. Made from only the strongest, highest quality pure virgin wool, many of Pendleton’s products are passed down from generation to generation.

It’s Comfortable

Wool is a natural insulator that lets the skin breathe, so it keeps you cool when its warm and cozy when the mercury drops. Opt for one of Pendleton’s lightest weight wool shirts and you’ll be able to wear yours all year long.

It’s Beautiful

The hollow fibers of Pendleton’s wool absorb dyes deeply and permanently for rich color that lasts. Made from the hands of expert Pendleton weavers, different colors of wool yarn are woven together to create intricate patterns and gorgeous color combinations that make your shirt truly stand out from the sea of imitations.

Whether you’re a professional woodcutter or just someone perfecting their lumberjack look, one thing’s for certain: You’ll need a shirt that does more than look the part —you’ll need Pendleton.

Invest in a shirt that's "warranted to be a Pendleton".
