Glenmore Wool Loden in Sage Green and Camel Checks

The Glenmore Wool Loden fabric is an elegant and versatile winter fabric, featuring an attractive check pattern in shades of sage green, camel, unbleached ecru and dark brown. Its natural colour palette combines soft, warm colours, creating a harmonious whole that is very easy to incorporate into autumn and winter garments.

With a width of 150 cm and a composition of 70% wool and 30% polyester, it combines the warmth and characteristic look of wool with the durability and stability provided by polyester. It is a relatively fine winter fabric compared to other thick wools and tweeds, ideal for creating warm, structured garments without adding excessive bulk.

The fabric features two sides with different finishes: one side offers a softer, more pleasant surface, whilst the reverse side shows the fabric’s structure and yarn more clearly. This feature allows you to choose the side that best suits each project and even make the most of the contrast between the two in certain tailoring details.

Its checks in sage green and earthy tones are particularly appealing for making up lightweight coats, jackets, overshirts, capes, waistcoats, skirts and winter dresses. It is also an excellent choice for seasonal bags and textile accessories.

Suggested uses: coats, jackets, overshirts, capes, waistcoats, winter skirts, dresses, bags and other fashion accessories.

Sewing tip: before cutting, decide which side of the fabric will be used as the outer side and ensure all pieces are facing the same direction. As this is a design with checks, it is advisable to allow a small extra margin to match the pattern correctly on the sides, sleeves and pockets. Always carry out a test ironing first and preferably use a woollen cloth to preserve the finish of the wool.
