boiled wool
Dense processed fleece
Boiled wool is a dense, felted fabric made by shrinking knitted wool in hot water.
The process compacts the fibers, creating a thick, wind-resistant material that holds its shape and resists fraying.
It's commonly used for jackets, hats, and slippers: a boiled wool coat for fall weather.
