15 August 2026 --- SunDog

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.  But a great bit of news is that we are getting our own looms online ... long time coming!

We are making some FullWeight Drab and FullWeight Lynx Fabric now, but not a whole lot and I'm not sure what I will do with it ... so many things we'd like to do.  But we are moving forward on Batch 13, a large Batch of Fabric that will enable us to make a lot, but we're looking pretty far into 2027.

Current inventory and potential production:

• Al's Anorak in stock in some sizes/Fabrics.  FullWeight Drab Green and FullWeight Lynx in production for delivery in Sep 2026.  Perhaps more FullWeight Lynx and Black for December 2026
• All-Around Jackets in stock in just a few sizes/colors.  We are shipping the latest production in FullWeight Drab and FullWeight Lynx now.  We may have a few left over once the dust settles.  Maybe a few more in Black and Lynx in late 2026.  Late 2027, at best, before the next large run
• Basic Vest ... just a few on hand now, in FullWeight and MidWeight Drab.  Maybe making a few in MidWeight Black for late 2026
• Blankets and Shemaghs ... various sizes, Fabrics on hand now.  Hoping to make a few in late 2026.It will be well into 2027 before we can make many more
• Blazers shipping now ... all in the 100% Wool Denim ... good inventory
• Cargo Shorts ... in Wool Denim, Charcoal color, plenty on hand now
• Chore Coats (Men's and Women's) ... many on hand now in several colors ... all in our Wool Denim.  We expect to make more in 2027
• CPOs in our 100% Wool Denim CPOs ... lots of them.   Plus a few Jacquard Fabric CPOs.  No A lot of these on hand and no additional production until 2027 ... and in Jacquard
• Denim Double Coat ... We have a few in stock, but probably mid-2027 before more
• Double Hoods ... some available now
• Five Pocket Vest ... quite a few in Charcoal Denim
• Hooded Jacket ... good inventory.  We don't plan to make more of these because they are so similar to the HoodOrak
• HoodOraks ... Many in stock now, mostly Denim.  We plan to make more as Batch 13 Fabrics become available
• Jeans on hand now in Denim
• Ladies Blanket Coat ... We have a few now and hopefully a good run in mid-2027
• Mountain-Ski Jackets ... just a handful now and will make more but it will take some time
• Neck Gaiters ... almost all still in stock, and anticipating another run this year
• Peacoat ... a few on hand now and hoping to squeeze in a small run by end of 2026
• Ponchos ... maybe make a few by the end of 2026.   And then more in 2027
• Scarves ... nothing now but we will make some in 2027
• ShirtJacs ... size 4X is all we have, but we are really looking forward to making more in 2027
• Watch Caps ... almost all still in stock, and anticipating another run in 2026
• Whipcord Shirts in Black and Drab Green on hand now ... no more production until 2027

And we're always making Fabric

• We're working on the last of the Batch Innes-1 FullWeight Fabric in Black and Lynx Pattern.  Not sure what I'll make
• Batch 13 is going into production now.  It's a big Batch and we'll be able to make many pieces
• We have purchased the fiber needed to complete Batch 14 (Innes-2), and we are hoping to begin processing in October of 2026, but ... we shall see
• We have additional Batches of Fabric and Yarn for Knits in the works, and we'll get them into production as soon as we can.

If you want something that is already in stock or that we are currently making (the individual product pages present details of production schedules), please order online or by phone.   If you want definitely something not in production, please place a SHIP ASAP backorder (a reservation) by phone-call or email (+1 831-704-1776 to Ralph@WeatherWool.com).  The NOTIFY button means we will notify you when we go into production, and you can reserve then, if we have room in the production run.

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

• Fabric Batch Innes-1 is in still in process but we have already completed and shipped many garments from this run
• As detailed on the Fabric Batches page, we are already working on Batches 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18

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 -- and we are.   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".   Also, as more people learn about us, we are increasing the size of our production runs, meaning we are making fewer different types of garments.  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!
