Woven with intention and attuned to the natural world, SKALL crafts collections with carefully sourced fibres and materials.
Material archive
Our wool outerwear and much of our tailoring is crafted from 100% recycled wool from Italian textile supplier Manteco.
Driven by purpose, we aim to solely work with vegetal fibres such as cotton, linen, and wool, and prioritise using mono-fibres where possible. Working in this way means that not only are these fibres more comfortable to wear due to their breathability, but supporting unblended fibres helps to simplify the recycling process. Sourcing these lower impact materials also helps to drive forward our goal of creating long-lasting garments, both in terms of design and materiality.
