At Swanndri, we’ve been working with wool since way back. About 1913 to be exact. Sure, we’ve grown and changed since then, just like everyone has. But we’ve always stayed true to this core material.

How come? Well, wool’s pretty darn special. In lots of ways. And it comes from some pretty special farms, right here in New Zealand. So here’s a quick yarn about the wool we use for our outerwear, where it comes from, and the journey it takes to get from there to the clothes on your back (or your dog’s).

Scott’s a practical person. But he’s also a collector.

We know what you’re thinking. Collecting is inherently impractical, right? It’s basically gathering a bunch of stuff you don’t need, will never use, and leaving it to gather dust in the garage until your partner has finally had enough and makes you drop it all down to the Sallies.
