Filson Henley Guide Sweater Peat Green Size Medium
Filson Henley Guide Sweater Peat Green Size Medium, The Filson Henley Guide Sweater, originally conceived by and for waterfowl hunters, is sewn in the USA with 100% merino wool. The waxed-cotton cape, made with our signature oil finish Shelter Cloth from the iconic British Millerain, protects from driving rain and snow. The four-button placket provides ventilation versatility, and the right shoulder shooting patch eases the bite of hot 12-gauge duck loads. The USA-sourced wool comes from merino sheep prized for their long, fine fleece. Merino wool's wavy crimp yields a soft and sturdy fabric with natural memory and shape retention. Merino wool fibers consist of thousands of tiny filaments sheathed within overlapping scales that are naturally water-resistant, and any moisture that does penetrate the fiber is wicked to the tips for evaporation. This capillary action is what allows wool to absorb up to 30% of its own weight in water without feeling damp or clammy. The fine merino fleece is tightly spun into firm yarns before knitting, creating surprising density and a smooth, non-scratchy surface that resists pilling. Rib-knit cuffs, waist and collar provide durable shape retention for years of reliability. The Filson Henley Guide Sweater-nature's best protection and insulation for wet and cold conditions. | Filson Henley Guide Sweater Peat Green Size Medium
