Wool has many positive properties that benefit us. It provides gentle warmth. It is soft enough to be placed directly against skin. Wool absorbs moisture, keeping you dry and comfortable. Wool breathes, maintaining comfortable temperature against your skin. The grey loden is the thickest and warmest, ideal for outdoor activities. The coloured loden is a little lighter and also warms wonderfully, ideal for indoors and outdoor activities. It is also good for elderly people, keep their waist, back, stomach warm.
With a range of sizes from XS to XXL, everyone can find the right fit. It is easy to find your size. Measure around your navel and compare with our size guide:
Example:
Waist circumference 85 cm = Back warmer size "M"
Here at Greenpicks, we offer loden blankets and eco hot water bottles with a fluffy loden cover in a range of sizes and colours to match the back warmers.
Made in our own manufacture from high quality virgin wool, the loden back warmer not only provides cosy warmth, but is also sustainably sourced: 100% new wool from Europe! The wool for our fluffy loden is sourced from sheep flocks in Europe. We have made a conscious decision to use wool from Europe in order to guarantee contact with our suppliers and, most importantly, European animal welfare standards. The loden is woven, dyed and finished from 100% new wool in southern Germany. The wool is spun in our own weaving mill in Brandenburg. To increase the surface area and achieve fluffiness, the finished loden is bulged and individual wool hairs are pulled to the surface. As this is a natural product, fluffiness may vary from product to product.
Features
How to wash wool?
"less is more...…" to help wool clothing last longer, only wash them when necessary.
The naturally contained wool grease (lanolin) ensures the self-regulating and antibacterial properties of wool fibres. Air out wool garment. Wash your wool clothing one final time at the end of the season or if it is very dirty. Hand wash with cool or cold water or wash on the wool, gentle, or delicate cycle with an enzyme-free liquid detergent like Sonett and a low spin speed (max. 400). If possible, use the washing machine setting for wool garments
How to dry your wool clothes and woollen textiles?
To avoid shrinking, don’t put wool clothing in the dryer. Instead, lay wool items flat to dry on a fresh towel or mesh rack in a spot that doesn’t receive direct sunlight. Carefully adjust the shape of the garment to ensure it is evenly stretched as it dries.
Ironing
Fleece loden and fine loden only with a damp cloth and iron from the left.
Detergent
We recommend using a special wool detergent that moisturises and cares for the wool. E.g. the olive detergent from Sonett.
In our manufactory, we produce handcrafted high-quality products. We focus on the materials organic linen and loden made from pure merino wool obtained from species-appropriate husbandry.
Our fabrics are woven in Germany and Austria, our design, cutting and production is in Schleswig-Holstein/Germany.
The fabrics are predominantly organically grown or mulesing-free, very skin-friendly and breathable. Timeless fashion and high-quality materials are an expression of individuality and make our garments durable and sustainable.
Linen has always provided a very pleasant climate, it has the ability to cool in summer and warm in winter, the lively fabric surface provides a pleasant massage of the skin. Home textiles are particularly absorbent and dry very quickly.
The loden is water-repellent, breathable and warming. The napped surface makes water drip off and keeps the wind out. Excess heat is well conducted to the outside.
Our materials are low-noise and particularly well tolerated.
