Rethink Wool

To be honest, I was a bit skeptical when I first read the words “wool” and “comfortwear” in the same sentence. When I think of wool, I think itchy and uncomfortable yet Rambler’s Way is entirely the opposite, with a luxury hand so soft and luxurious that it feels like second skin for everyday comfort year-round.

Rambler’s Way Farm is a family business that promotes transparency throughout the production process to ensure that each superfine worsted wool garment provides warmth and comfort while maintaining their commitment to equality and sustainability. Not only do they grow their very own Rambouillet sheep but they also produce their wool line entirely on American soil to benefit local economies and the environment. Items can be a bit of a splurge as the selection ranges from $45-$250, but each piece is so versatile that it’s worth every penny. Not to mention that purchasing Rambler’s Way clothing keeps our dollars invested in companies that put it directly back into the community.

“To fashion a model of American worsted wool products which provide consumers with superior choices in apparel and responds to a changing world in which environmental sustainability and local economic activity are essential for global survival.”

If I could go back and add one more item to my Christmas wish list, I would have added the Women's S/S Scoop Neck. Wool that offers practical and stylish protection? I’m in.
