BÆRSkin Wool Hoodie + BÆRSkin Wool Parka | BÆRSkin Tactical Supply Co.

Gray wool hooded jacket with snow, labeled features: 7 pockets, YKK zips, Velcro patch, adjustable hood, cuffs and hem

The Original BÆRSkin Hoodie Design, Maxxed Out with The Warmest Fiber on Earth.

The 340gsm BÆRSkin MicroFleece Hoodie is the best-selling thing we have ever made, and it has earned that. Hundreds of thousands of men wear one through winter after winter, and it does exactly what we built it to do.

This is that same hoodie, built in the oldest cold-weather fiber there is. Same silhouette, same adjustable hood and hem, same secure storage you expect from us - now in 365gsm of 80% wool.

Wool earns its place by what it does with moisture, wind and time.

Wool absorbs up to 30% of its weight in moisture vapor before it feels wet against the skin.
Natural lanolin in the fiber is antibacterial, so it stays fresh across a full season of daily wear.
Crimped wool fibers hold pockets of still air inside the fabric, so the warmth arrives without extra bulk.
A dense wool weave stops wind at the surface, which is where most of your body heat goes.

Two materials. Two jobs. The enemy is the wind and the wet outside, not the hoodie already in your wardrobe.

Black wool-blend thigh-length parka with detachable hood, water-repellent coating, 10 pockets and adjustable cuffs

Polyester Has Been Trying to Beat Wool Since the 1940s. It Still Can't.

Every synthetic parka ever made is an attempt to copy what wool does on its own - trap air, hold warmth, handle moisture. They get close on the first one and lose badly on the rest. Synthetic insulation traps your sweat against you, goes clammy the moment you work, and by February it carries a smell that no wash fully removes. Three winters and you are buying another one.

Wool has had a few thousand years to get this right. The fibers are crimped, so they hold pockets of warm air without needing bulk. They absorb moisture vapor before you ever feel damp. And the natural lanolin in the fiber is antibacterial, so it stays fresh through a whole season rather than a fortnight.

The BÆRSkin Wool Parka is 365gsm of that, built properly.

80% wool and 20% polyamide at 365gsm, with a diamond-quilted lining behind it.
Wool absorbs up to 30% of its own weight in water before it feels wet to the touch.
Natural lanolin keeps it fresh through the whole winter, not just the first few wears.
