Fabric & Craft
What goes into a PINZHAN coat, and how long it takes.
Double-faced wool carries no lining.
Both faces are finished cloth, joined by hand, so there is nothing between the wearer and the wool.
We use 100% wool from 680 g/m2 for adults and teens, 520 g/m2 for the smaller sizes: dense nap, enough weight to hang straight, creases that fall out overnight.
Knitwear and accessories are 2-ply 26S/2 cashmere from Inner Mongolia, 12-gauge for sweaters, 2x2 rib for hats and scarves.
One worker spends about three days on a single coat. That is the slowest part of what we do, and the hardest to replace.
