loden

Tyrolean coat fabric

Loden is a thick, water-resistant woolen cloth, typically in a muted grayish-green color.

The fabric originated in Austria for outdoor garments, and the distinctive color has become so associated with it that loden often refers to the shade itself: a loden coat, loden green.

The material remains popular for traditional European hunting and hiking wear.
