Leaving the wool undyed does not make the jacket impact-free, and we do not describe it that way. It removes one process, gives the fibre's existing colour a purpose, and produces a cloth we would choose on appearance alone.
Why This Wool Was Left Undyed
The Fold Jacket appears charcoal from across the room. Up close, the cloth is made from brown, grey, and cream fibres blended before spinning. The colour belongs to the fleece rather than a dye bath.
We chose it for the depth of the surface, not to turn a material decision into a slogan.
Colour with its own variation
Undyed yarn refuses perfect uniformity. One bolt runs a little warmer; another carries more silver through the face. We place matching pieces beside one another before cutting and keep each garment within a single shade group.
The variation is controlled, but never erased. It makes a dark jacket respond to daylight in a way a flat black cannot.
