Title: Autumn Wood Outfitter wool?????
Post by: LookMomNoSights on November 28, 2012, 09:41:00 AM
Anyone heard of them?  Own and use any of their wool hunting clothing?  If so what do you think?
They had a booth at a local sporting show a while back and it looked like nice stuff.   Thanks!!!

It's excellent stuff. I have a parka and pants in their snow camo.  Pretty much cold weather stuff though.  It's the heaviest wool I've ever worn.  Think it must be around 30 oz.  Most other heavy wool  is around 24 oz. Very well made (in the US, too, I believe).  Jackets and parkas tend to run large in my opinion.  I have a large parka which seems roomier inside than my XL KOM bowhunter jacket.  Pants are made by waist sizes so fitting them is a bit easier.

Cook and Lori Schiavone are great people.  Years ago when I worked for Autumn Sales as importer for Blaser Rifles, we shared booths with them at all SCI shows, SHOT show, FNAWS show, etc.  Cook used to play for the Minn. Vikings, but also has a background in clothing and knows wool, and wool clothing inside/out.  His line of wool clothing is top notch.

They used to go to Denton years ago. The temps. were in the high 80's and trying on wool was the last thing I wanted to do!! I am still kicking myself for that!!
