Wool Utility Shirt
Heavyweight warmth engineered for daily motion. Made from post-consumer recycled wool scraps and finished with durable flat-felled seams
Made by Elin K, Porto
Conventional outerwear relies on synthetic blends that end up in landfills. The Wool Utility Shirt reclaims discarded wool textiles, shredding and re-spinning them into a resilient, dense weave that holds heat without the bulk. Built with oversized chest utility pockets, reinforced elbow patches, and zero plastic hardware. Every piece is cut and assembled in a solar-powered facility where makers earn an audited living wage.
All orders ship ground within 3 to 5 business days using 100% post-consumer recycled kraft mailers. No plastic polybags, no unnecessary inserts.
We offer free domestic exchanges and returns within 30 days of delivery on all unworn items.
When you are done wearing this piece, do not toss it. Ship it back to our distribution hub at any point in its lifespan and receive 50% of the original purchase value back in store credit toward your next staple. Every returned garment is repaired, resold, or re-spun into raw fibers to keep textiles out of landfills.
