As many of us try to reduce our microplastics, this is a mini reminder why wool is such a wonderful resource

WOOL vs SYNTHETICS (petrochemical gear) – the real lifecycle 👀🐑

We get asked a bit about “what’s actually better?” so here’s a simple timeline view.

Wool:
• Grown on-farm every year (renewable fibre)
• Shorn, processed, spun, knitted/woven
• Worn for years (and it keeps doing the job)
• Can be repaired, handed down, repurposed
• At end of life it breaks down as a natural fibre

Synthetics:
• Starts with crude oil extraction + refining
• Turned into plastic polymers (like polyester)
• Often shorter wear life (especially in hard-use gear)
• Sheds microfibres in washing and wear
• Persists for decades+ in landfill, and contributes to microplastic pollution

Big picture: the most sustainable garment is the one you wear the longest. If it lasts, gets repaired, and keeps you warm, that’s a win.

We’re bloody proud of the wool industry and the people behind it – farmers, shed crews, woolhandlers, classers, brokers, processors, and everyone in between. 💪

They shall grow not old,
as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them,
nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun
and in the morning
We will remember them.

⚘ Lest we forget.
