What is fulling?
Nur Loden aus 100% Schurwolle darf sich Loden nennen
Loden mit Kunstfaseranteil ist kein Loden und bringt aus unserer Sicht auch keine Vorteile. Anteile von Kunstfasern im Loden weisen nur auf eine kostengünstige Produktion hin. Diese tiefe und ehrliche Überzeugung vertreten wir seit fast 600 Jahren.
Loden variety
There is a wide variety of loden types, we would like to list our main qualities below:
Cloth loden
approx. 460 g/linear metre (300 g/m²)

Welsh Loden - Glacier loden
approx. 650 g/linear metre (430 g/m²)
Welsh loden, which we call glacier loden, is a loden quality that is woven in a twill weave. This makes it a very robust loden. It is available in different weight classes. Different colours are often used in the warp and weft to emphasise the structure or create effects. We mainly use it for our hunting collection, ski clothing and clothing that is severely exposed to wear and tear. Glacier loden is also suitable for upholstery.

Fine Bouclé Loden
approx. 560 g/linear metre (380 g/m²)

Thick Bouclé Loden
approx. 900 g/linear metre (640 g/m²)

Double Loden
approx. 750 g/linear metre (500 g/m²)

What is loden?
Loden is always fulled and is characterised by different surface qualities.
Loden is made of 100% new wool.
Differences between loden, walk & felt

Only loden made of 100% new wool may be called loden
Loden containing synthetic fibres is not loden and, in our view, provides no advantages. The presence of synthetic fibres in loden only indicates low-cost production. We have held this deep and honest conviction for almost 600 years.

There are no limits to creativity
New designs and loden variations will also be created in the future. They only need to be made of 100% new wool.
