Status as of 27 October 2025 --- Ralph

In short:  ALL SYSTEMS GO!  But never as fast as we would like because for us, processing raw wool into finished garments takes over a year, up to 30 or even 36 months. 

We have purchased two looms of our own and hope to have them online before the end of 2025.  This will help us move a lot faster.

We are always working on more items.  As of now, we are working on:

• HoodOraks ... first run shipping now, in an array of our Denim colors
• CPOs in our 100% Wool Denim.  Finished some, more to come!
• Al's Anorak in MidWeight Lynx Pattern has begun to ship.  MidWeight Drab Green going into production about 1 November to ship in January.  Other Anoraks on hand and shipping now
• Whipcord Shirts in Drab Green are shipping now, with Black Whipcord Shirts in production again, expected to January. 
• Hooded Jackets in MidWeight Lynx probably ship in late November
• Blazers, a new product for us, should begin to ship in November.   Not on website yet
• More Jeans coming in November

If you want something we are working on, please order online or by phone.   If you want something not in production, please place a SHIP ASAP backorder (a reservation) by phone or email to Ralph@WeatherWool.com ... or just hit the NOTIFY button, but that does not create a reservation.  NOTIFY means we will notify you when we go into production, and you can reserve then.

Everything we do is based on our Fabric, which we make ourselves: 

• Fabric Batch Innes-1 is in process and the very first yardage -- MidWeight Lynx Fabric and Drab Green Whipcord Fabric, has been completed.   Al's Anoraks and Whipcord Shirts up first, and Hooded Jackets are going too.  Next Fabrics on the schedule are MidWeight Drab, MidWeight Black, FullWeight Lynx, FullWeight Drab, FullWeight Black and some more Whipcord.   Now that we are using our Heritage/LightWeight Fabric as a structural component of many of our garments, that Fabric is suddenly a lot more important to us, and can hold up production of most of our garments if we run out.   Right now, we are diverting yarn from the Whipcord to make extra Heritage
• Fabric Batch 13 and Batch Innes-2 are in the works ... greasy wool purchased and processing scheduled to begin soon, but I need to explore some new ideas!

Our Production Backstory page gives some more info about why we have been so low on inventory.

Something else ... some people may think our spotty inventory reflects a lack of commitment on our part. It's a natural enough assumption to make, I guess, but it's not the case. We are ready, willing, able and absolutely eager to commit enough time, energy and capital to make a great many garments. But there is still very little American factory capacity to turn our very specialized raw wool into our very custom finished Fabric and garments. And it's routine that some sizes/fabrics will be completely reserved before production is complete, so they never show as "In Stock Now". But all our Partners are up and running, and the production situation is steadily improving.

Thank you for your patience and for working with us!
