What kind of material is the 'wool felt' mentioned in the coat description, and what role does it play in the silhouette?
When reading the description of a winter coat, encountering the unfamiliar term 'wool felt' may make one wonder how it differs from ordinary wool materials and what effect it has on the garment's shape.
The wool felt used for the outer fabric is a material made by compressing wool to increase its density, helping the garment firmly maintain its shape without losing its form.
Unlike ordinary woven fabrics where threads are interlaced, felt is a fabric created by compressing wool fibers with heat and moisture so that they become densely entangled. Its structure is dense. It does not fray easily and the fabric itself has strength, possessing the quality of standing firm without letting the garment's shape collapse.
RECTO's double-breasted short coat has its entire outer fabric made of a thick, high-density wool felt of 100% wool[1][2]. Because the fabric itself is thick, the structural shape of the cropped length is maintained without losing its form[3][4]. Pads are added to the shoulders[5]. With shoulder pads added to the characteristic firmness of felt, it holds a sharply defined shoulder line[6].
The material composition of the lining added to the wool felt outer fabric and the laundry care instructions have not yet been confirmed.
