LAMBS WOOL... STILL THE BEST!
For centuries, lambs wool has been the traditional choice for keeping warm at sea, because it retains body heat... even if it gets wet! This unique feature is unmatched by modern synthetic materials, and so that's why we still recommend it for sweaters, coats, watchcaps and blankets. Wool also tends to assist the body in regulating its own comfort level across a wide range of temperatures and sailing conditions, thereby making it ideal for layering.
Wool is also naturally fire-retardant, without added chemicals or synthetic irritants. This makes it suitable for emergency use aboard the ship, such as first-response trauma care, or even snuffing out flames.
