I really love this idea of Slouch Business pants instead of the fitted ones. These are perfect to wear casually and formally both. |

In a continuous effort to promote wool as a trans-seasonal fibre in
India, The Woolmark Company and Raymond have entered into a partnership
to launch a complete new Cool Wool collection for Indian customers. The
partnership reiterates The Woolmark Company’s
commitment to drive awareness about the plethora of benefits that wool
offers and is strengthened by joining with Raymond - India’s leading
menswear brand and the leading manufacturer, marketer and retailer of
worsted suiting fabrics over the past eight decades.
Cool
Wool garments are manufactured from lightweight Merino wool fabrics
with a maximum weight of 190 g/m² and a maximum mean wool
fibre diameter of 22.5 micron. Merino wool is used for its natural,
breathable and thermal-management properties in lighter-weight fabrics
for warmer climates such as India’s.
The
Cool Wool range from Raymond includes 100 per cent wool fabric as well
as blends with natural fibres including silk, cotton and
linen.
Peter Ackroyd, global strategic advisor for The Woolmark Company said “India has a tropical, climate and customers avoid wearing wool garments in summers, as they clearly identify the fabric with winters. We want to negate this notion. Indian customers need to understand the true potential, versatility, and the benefits of using wool in summers. With Cool Wool, we are confident and believe that Indians will fathom the adaptability of wool in summers.
Cool
Wool offers a variety of smart and comfortable fabrics that includes
pure wool lightweight fabrics in Super 100’S Merino wool
and innovative blends of Merino wool in combination with other natural
fibres manufactured using innovative technology that ensures natural
breathability and temperature regulation thus, making it an ideal fibre
to be worn all year long.
Australia’s Acting High Commissioner, Mr Bernard Philip, said “Australia is the world’s leading wool producer, accounting for around one quarter of the global wool production and Australia has a long tradition of trade with India in wool. In 2012-13, India was the second largest market for Australian wool and Australia was the largest source of India’s wool imports".
