Care & Cleaning: We recommend two care products for our garments. The suede should be sprayed with a rain and stain shield made for suede or leather. This will protect it against water spotting and will help it resist soiling. Suede conditioner/cleaner will remove most spotting. The wool of any garment can be touched up with a solution of cold water and Woolite. Do not soak through to the suede. Brush the wool when nearly dry to fluff it up. When a garment becomes soiled overall, it should be professionally dry cleaned by someone specializing in leather and/or furs.
Construction: These product feature top-grade lambskins, natural deer and elk antler buttons and tough nylon thread. All seams are double-stitched and buttonholes are bound for good looks and durability. Buttonholes are deliberately snug to begin with as they will loosen up and stretch with use. The hem stabilizers on the coats help prevent, to a degree, the natural curling of the garment. The softest and most supple skins are selected for sleeves and collars to assure comfort and flexibility
What is this? It’s genuine sheepskin. It has silky wool on one side and suede, smooth or Brisa leather on the other side. It is a hide or one piece of sheepskin. The wool is not a lining. It is part of the hide. It takes 21 days and many steps to create the soft supple skins you see in your garment.
Where does it come from? These products are made from domestic sheep from the Rocky Mountain States. They are raised commercially for their meat and the hides are a valuable by-product which is tanned here in the United States. They are NOT an endangered species. Buttons are made from antlers which are shed annually by deer and elk. They are handmade and each set is truly one of a kind.
Diane, at her store in Alma Colorado handcrafts each and every garment herself. Thank you for purchasing one of our garments. We wish you many years of pleasure and warmth.
