FullWeight ShirtJac
We are almost completely sold out of ShirtJacs ... only size 4X still available
DESCRIPTION: The ShirtJac, as the name implies, is a shirt pattern with pockets. In our case the heavier FullWeight Fabric makes it more of a jacket than a shirt.
FIT GUIDE: Fits a bit big. Model in photos is 5'11" (178 cm) and 186 pounds (84 kg) wearing a size medium.
PLEASE check the size charts and let's hope we can get it right the first time ... exchanges/returns are free but a chore for you and an extra cost for us.
FABRIC: 100% WeatherWool Certified Fine Wool in a Jacquard Weave
FEATURES:
- Front and back panels of the garment are joined by a doubled panel over the top of the shoulders for additional protection against rain and weather.
- Handwarmer pockets on each side
- Large, inside drop pockets on each side. The size of these pockets will vary depending on the size of the ShirtJac, but in size Medium, the drop pockets are large enough to hold an 8.5 by 11 inch (22 x 28 cm) folder or even a notebook PC and iPads.
- Chest pockets are 5"x 5.5" (12.7cm x 14cm) (size medium)
- Stitched onto each drop pocket is a zippered pocket measuring 5 by 8 inches (13 by 20 cm), large enough to hold a field notebook.
- Signature slot button closures secured with nylon ribbon on cuffs, at the pockets, and front center
- The collar is substantial and will hold up when raised
- Milspec water-resistant thread throughout
WeatherWool is always MADE IN USA 100%
VERSATILITY: Easy to toss on and walk out the door as an everyday jacket, work coat, or even dressed up over a shirt and tie.
ANECDOTES: One other thing has surprised some. The inner "drop pockets" open into the handwarmer pockets. That is, you can put something into the drop pocket and take it out the handwarmer pocket ... or vice versa, of course. If we had separated the handwarmer pockets from the drop pockets, we would have had to add bulk to the garment, and the drop pockets would have been much narrower. Even on the XXSmall ShirtJac, the inner drop pockets are 9.5 inches (24 cm) wide, and increase with ShirtJac size. The zippered pockets sewn to the front of each drop pocket are wide and made of our own 100% Wool Heritage (also referred to as LightWeight) Fabric.

CARE AND CLEANING: Wool’s anti-static properties help make it self-cleaning and odor-resistant, so it should not need frequent cleaning. It may not even need rare cleaning. If your wool does not seem dirty, don't feel obligated to clean it ... even if you have not cleaned it for years. More details about spot cleaning and submersion washing and even weather-renewal can be found on our care and cleaning page.

Slot Buttons
Slot Buttons are more secure than any other type of button we know. They have two slots through which an ultra-strong strip of nylon ribbon is threaded. The nylon ribbon is very securely sewn to the garment using Mil-Spec Anefil Nylon water-resistant thread. The Slot Button design results in an extremely well-anchored Button.

Our Fabric
Our 100% American, 100% Wool Fabrics, made from 100% WeatherWool Certified Fine Wool, are the foundation of our company. Making our own Fabric is time-consuming, difficult and expensive. But for us, there is no other way.
FullWeight WeatherWool Fabric
Our FullWeight Fabric was the first Fabric we developed, and it remains fundamental to what we do. Woven on a Jacquard loom, it is a three-dimensional weave that helps insulate far better than normal flat-weave wool fabrics. FullWeight is our warmest Fabric. Our FullWeight Fabric is about 18.5 ounces per square yard (627 grams per square meter), about 50% heavier than our MidWeight Fabric.

FAQ
Where is it made?
All of our products are 100% made in the USA using 100% American-made wool and materials. We pay American citizens to make all of our garments. See more.
Is WeatherWool in retail stores?
No, it is only available directly through this Website.
What are your garments designed for?
We set out to make the best All-Purpose outerwear possible and we take that "ALL" part seriously. While some items may be better then others for specific needs we like to think we have the perfect garment for anything you do outside regardless if it is in the serving in military, hunting, camping, city, country, work or worship.
Why is it so expensive?
We never cut a single corner at any step. We make our own fabric, from the best wool in the USA. There are over 45 steps in making our fabric alone. We use the highest quality materials made in the USA. We have owner operated customer service on call to serve you and offer free shipping in USA and Canada as well as hassle free returns.
Is WeatherWool Merino Wool?
Not exactly. Merino is great wool and has been very well marketed over the years but pure merino alone is not actually suitable for us.
We select our wool based on a number of characteristics including micron, strength, length, and comfort factor. With the help of our advisor Bob Padula we have determined the perfect recipe for our goals. Thanks to modern equipment we can test all the wool before we buy it and that wool is primarily coming from Rambouillet and Targhee breeds.
How do you clean WeatherWool
Short answer, you almost never need to. It's self cleaning. We've had garments we've worn for 7 years that have never been cleaned other then some rain.
However, things happen. If a lukewarm bath and dry flat doesn't do the trick, you can try wool-cleaner. Our full cleaning page is here.
Can bugs bite through your fabric?
We have not heard of any that can.
What is your customer service policy?
Our customers will be taken care of.
Full Customer Service policy can be found here.

About us
Founders / Owners
WeatherWool was founded in 2009 by Ralph and Debby DiMeo. Together with their children and a few friends they maintain 100% ownership of the company. Their full story can be read here.
Direct Connection To The Source
We make our own Fabric, starting with raw wool carefully and specifically selected from a small group of ranches in the USA that meet our certification standards. This isn't no stock photo. We're actually out there during shearing sampling wool and sharing stoies and good times with the ranchers and their families.
The Best We Can Figure Out
While most companies decide a price point, and reverse engineer a garment to meet that retail price, WeatherWool does the opposite. We make the best garment we can figure out how to make at every decision we face.Although our garments seem pricey to some our profit margins are below average and you're getting more value for your money and assurance that you're getting some of the best wool in the world.
