Island Fleece
The centennial tradition of the farmers from the Falkland Islands, where sheep graze freely on wide pastures rippled by the ocean's breeze, has met the innovative and sustainable production of Lanificio Ermenegildo Zegna.
The pastures in this region, situated in the remote archipelago not far from the South Pole, bear the influence of the maritime environment, giving rise to a wool with a truly unique and unmistakable touch.
The result is a fabric with a soft, springy feel and a density reminiscent of fabrics from bygone eras, but it also caters to the need for perfect draping and fit as required by Master Tailors.
The wool used for these fabrics is among the whitest in the world and comes from limited, fully traceable, and sustainable productions.
In summary, Falkland Islands wool embodies the convergence of nature, craftsmanship, and sustainability. Among the characteristics of this wool is its unique purity in terms of color, which imparts sharp patterns and brightness to the appearance of garments made with this sartorial fabric.
A must-have for the world's finest tailors.
