super 140s wool
Super 140s wool represents the pinnacle of luxury textile manufacturing, denoting wool fibers with a diameter of 16.25 microns or less. This exceptional grade of wool is renowned for its remarkable softness, durability, and superior draping qualities. The number 140 indicates that one pound of wool can be spun into 140 hanks of yarn, each measuring 560 yards in length, showcasing its incredible fineness. This premium wool variety is sourced from select Merino sheep, primarily from Australia and New Zealand, where careful breeding and optimal environmental conditions contribute to the development of these ultra-fine fibers. The manufacturing process involves meticulous sorting, cleaning, and processing to maintain the integrity of these delicate fibers. The resulting fabric exhibits an extraordinarily smooth hand feel, natural stretch, and excellent breathability. Super 140s wool is particularly valued in high-end tailoring for its ability to create garments with a luxurious drape and refined appearance. The fabric's natural resistance to wrinkles and its ability to maintain shape make it ideal for formal wear and premium business attire.
