Sarner jacket made of hemp and wool, Tyrolean design – production details, yarns, fabrics

The wool fiber is sourced in the Italian region of Apulia, and spun in Prato – Tuscany. The spinning mill processed a wool blend with Italian hemp fiber, harvested, scutching and subjected to anaerobical retting in Tuscany. Anaerobic retting of hemp brings a wool-like fiber. The fabric was designed in the province of Bergamo, evolving the honeycomb pattern and finding a marked three – dimensionality through a light felting treatment.

Sarner in hemp and wool: tailoring details

Sarner jacket, from the Sarentino Valley in South Tyrol. The jacket features a round neck, and long raglan sleeves. The fit is snug on the torso, thanks in part to side panels, and volumetric on the shoulders, where a lining reinforces the structure. The brass cufflinks are handmade in Italy. The sleeves are straight and comfortable.

Prototipo Studio’s natural dyes: the color of natural fibers

The wool and hemp Sarner jacket is available in cream white. The natural color of hemp fiber tends toward ochre and terracotta, a darker gradation due to anaerobic maceration.

Prototipo Studio and Italian hemp: anaerobic retting

Prototipo Studio works to restore the hemp supply chain in Italy by supporting two critical processing steps: scutching and retting. Retting, in particular, can be conducted either in an aerobic environment or in an anaerobic environment, resulting in different consequences for the subsequent spinning stage.
