Finally got my first piece of Asbell wool
« on: December 10, 2020, 07:47:46 PM »
been wanting to order from Asbell for years, but never got around to it. Black Friday I looked at the sale page and ordered a Pathfinder. White and Black plaid blanket weight. Absolutely thrilled with it, guess I'll be spending some more $$ there!

Love the Asbell wool and have several pieces from them. I’m seriously considering the orange vest they have so even if I’m toting my bow in gun season I can still have something quiet.

Darktater , Hello , I’m from SC also and find Ashbel wool to be about perfect . Have several pieces , I keep with zippers because I wear glasses and find pullovers kinda awkward. One of their vest with the hooded jacket covers about any conditions we have here , with proper layering . I actually love the hoods on these , they block wind and I feel help to break up your outline and perhaps hide head movement.

I'm right there with you on the glasses, so I went XXL on the pathfinder, so it's plenty big for easy on and off. I'll probably get a vest as well, along with a lighter weight one for more mild weather. The hood is awesome! What part of SC?

Just an FYI I myself have a few pieces too but I normally wear it underneath something. I don’t use it as an outer layer especially in the winter or fall. Burr docks, hitch hiker seeds, etc all stick to wool. It can be a real pain to remove em or be almost impossible. Something to consider

Had a Greer address growing up. Found my favorite wool jacket ( Woolrich ) at the Barnyard flea market on 101 in Greer. Think I gave $8 for it.

Purchased my first Pathfinder 4 years ago and absolutely love it! But, I'm a bit more trim these days and, unfortunately, it's too baggy now. Not the worst problem to have! Now I just have to patiently wait for the pattern I want to buy to become available in the size I want!!
