Hello Thomas, This is a beautiful outer layer/Anorak! Yes, Wool is coming again! Here in (South)Germany the last 10-15ys it has a Comeback, or at least the old Military Stuff in our collection got new pieces. In Hunting, Bushcraft, Wilderness Trainings and Allround-Outdoors. It has for sure something to do with 'Tradition', also with a lil bit ecologic awareness, but they simple practical! We have two high recommend companies Mufflon and Steinkauz, where worked with Loden. And also Meindl and Pfanner has his own collections. All of them are High Quality, that has evtl his price.. but they are wonderful clothes. In Hunting, the Lodenmantel has always fans! Also Rucksacks and Bags. I dream till today from a Loden-Waidsack, but i never buy a one. The english people have Tweed, we have Loden.. ^^ and i am pretty sure, that if i would be born there, i would wear nothing else! Because it hasn't a Stigma of awefulness like ours in the last decades. Also you see more often ..Strickjacken und -pullover.. with better wool, and the Merino in all Variarions you talk about are wide spread! Greetings!

Wool is definitely the way to go to go. It can get very, very cold where I live in the US, far below 0, for sure and usually plenty of snow. Nothing else keeps you warm and dry the same way that good quality wool does. Awesome video, thanks for sharing it. 🙂

Thanks so much Wade.. The recommendation was spot on.. Just wish for snow and a day in the woods. Just around 0 degrees I can do a 200 gram wool base layer and the Anorak. When activ.

It's the very best there is at what it does. I will be yet again wearing my BMA rough in the woods hunting this season an item I wouldn't leave behind in a survival setting.

Yes! Why did you go for the rough vs the loden? I ended up getting the loden last winter... I still don't understand the difference besides 100% wool vs 95% wool. Experience?
@joebuck44962 жыл бұрын
@@maxzdrada9458 do you think that the loden is itchy? That is the difference, the 95% ones are made with 5% other material because the process makes them less itchy to the skin than the 100% loden, however that isn’t to claim that the loden is extremely itchy wool, but just relatively itchier compared to the 95% ones. That’s why I’m wondering if you think it’s itchy? Like how about around the neck area?

@@joebuck4496 I have the Loden. It can get itchy around the neck and head (I'm bald), but overall it doesn't bother me that bad. I don't regret the purchase. I absolutely love mine.

@@dotheevolution78 ok thanks. Yeah I definitely hear that itchiness and wool is very subjective for different people, I was without question gonna get a loden until I saw his video where he said the 95%’ers are friendlier to the skin…but for all I know maybe I wouldn’t even be sensitive to the loden on my skin anyway. I’ll probably end up just buying a loden product sooner or later anyway and having both.

I went Xl like everything else I do and it allows a solid base layer and a mid layer also of wool with ease

@@andypalles-clark7380 you should go for 10 inches more than your chest size, it will leave you enough room to put it on without too much acrobatic, and allow one or two underlayers (T-shirt and Sweat), I'm 40" torso and go for L, perfect sizing.
