DOUWE | UNDYED | Skipper's Jumper 100% Wool
The Douwe has been an icon in our collection for many years. For this version, we have chosen one of the purest forms of wool available: undyed wool.
The Douwe UNDYED is knitted from the same high-quality wool from the Austrian spinning mill Schoeller. A quality that combines the softness of merino wool with the durability and strength of traditional virgin wool.
For this version, we have completely omitted the dyeing process. The colours of the sweater are therefore not created by dyes, but arise from the natural colours of the wool itself. The result is two timeless shades: Bèèhge and Bèèhruin, derived from the fleece of light and brown sheep.
By using the wool in its natural state, the character of the material is fully preserved. In addition, a step in the production process is eliminated, requiring fewer raw materials and energy.
Like all our products, the Douwe UNDYED is also designed with longevity as its starting point. And when the sweater eventually reaches the end of its life, we would like to have it back. At Roosenstein Wolke, we process worn products made of 100% wool and 100% cotton into new yarns for future collections.
The Douwe UNDYED shows that timeless design, natural materials and responsible production can effortlessly go hand in hand.
