American bison fiber, also known as bison down or bison wool, has been gaining attention in the apparel industry for its unique properties and benefits.
1. Sustainability: Bison fiber is an environmentally friendly choice. Bison are native to North America and can thrive in harsh climates, reducing the need for intensive farming practices. They require less water, feed, and land compared to traditional livestock like sheep or cattle. Moreover, bison fiber is often a byproduct of meat production, making it an excellent example of sustainable resource utilization.
2. Insulation and Temperature Regulation: Bison wool is known for its exceptional insulation qualities. The fine undercoat from which the fiber is sourced is incredibly warm yet breathable, providing warmth without the bulk. This makes it ideal for thermal layers that can regulate body temperature in harsh winter conditions yet remain comfortable during physical exertion.
3. Durability: Bison fibers are strong and resilient, much like the animal itself. They can withstand wear and tear better than many other natural fibers, leading to clothing that lasts longer. This durability contributes to reducing textile waste, aligning with circular economy principles.
4. Hypoallergenic Properties: For those sensitive to wool from other animals, bison wool is hypoallergenic. It doesn't contain lanolin, which is often the cause of skin irritation in sheep wool, making it a great alternative for people with allergies or sensitive skin.
5. Softness and Comfort: While bison wool might be associated with toughness due to the bison's robust nature, the undercoat from which the fiber is harvested is surprisingly soft. This softness combined with its natural crimp provides a comfortable, cozy feel against the skin.
6. Moisture Wicking: Bison wool has excellent moisture-wicking capabilities, drawing sweat away from the body to evaporate into the air. This property is particularly beneficial in activewear, where moisture management can affect comfort and performance.
7. Odor Resistance: bison wool naturally resists odors. This means apparel made from bison fiber can be worn longer between washes, which not only saves time but also reduces the environmental impact associated with laundry.
8. Ethical Sourcing: Many bison fiber products come from operations where bison are raised with high welfare standards. This resonates with consumers who prioritize ethical sourcing in their purchasing decisions.
There isn't anything available that works as well as American bison fiber for warmth, wicking and comfort... those big beasts are well protected. Mother Nature takes care of it's own, and bison are really well prepared for extreme climates.
