Ever wonder what happens to WeatherWool -- or wool in general -- in the rain??
Wool does not get wet the way most people think. There is lots more info on the website ... but basically ... the outside of a wool fiber repels water ... so the behavior of wool is almost the opposite of cotton ... cotton soaks up water like a sponge because cotton is very much like a sponge. Instead, wool gets wet kind of like the hair on your head ... water will sit on the surface of it, but it dries off quickly. However, here is the crazy wrinkle ... wool is scaly, and water molecules (vapor mostly) can slide between the scales and are adsorbed INSIDE the wool fiber, where the react chemically with the wool and actually release heat.
I've worn an All-Around Jacket -- with a double yoke -- in the rain from dawn to dark and not gotten wet:

If you get need to walk 20 miles in a freezing rain, wool will get you through it. Wool does very well in the rain, so long as you wear a wool base layer (not cotton!!).
Also, people have wondered about the sleeves of the ShirtJac shown here. We cut our sleeves long so you can tuck your hands inside if you want to avoid gloves. You can tighten the cuff if you don't want the sleeves coming down over your hands.
