There are customers that say this hat is not wool but polyester. I wanted a wool hat and I am wondering if someone could shed some light on this.

I'm one of the customers that said that. The description states "wool" or partial wool. Not one bit. The tag on the inside of the hat states 100% polyester. I palmed it off on visiting son-in-law. Now it's in Surf City, and I bought a different one.

It seems that they have been inconsistent in their material usage. My label says 100% polyester. Feels like polyester/cotton. Made in China. I ordered mine a few weeks prior to the 2013 holidays.

The hat is 100% polyester-- no light to shed on this. It was inappropriately labeled as wool on amazon. However, its a nice hat.

Hi,I have the hat in my hand right now and the label reads 100% polyester made in (of course) China. However it does not feel/look like polyester. I like the hat very much.

If it's the same hat as the one I ordered and received it is definitely WOOL. I recall reading the label. It is not thick and heavy (wool) but is certainly a substantial, nicely made hat.

Yes! Wool keeps its shape. This is our second year using this product. It is extremely warm. Haven't tried washing it yet, but it will be necessary to do so in an extra large washer at the local laundramat.

...just trust in the fact it is durable and will hold a Lot of weight. I purchased two of them, and the texture is a cotton/slight canvas texture. Unfortunately, I don't know about the polyester ...there is none that I have detected. Hope this helps!happy shopping,Rose

Polyester, it is wonderful and so light but keeps you warm without being overly hot. I got one for 2 of my adult kids and they love it also.

I purchased one of these comforters and love it. I don't know how you'd really know the actual fiber content - isn't this the same issue anytime you purchase anything? That it's tagged 100% wool, and from a country with a similar economic status to ours is a good sign. What I can say is that if it did have synthetic materials, I think I'd notice because I am highly sensitive to products that don't "breathe" - I sweat under polyester, for instance, so don't wear it. This comforter is excellent.

Sorry David I have no experience in this to really answer your question... I've using them from time to time the last months but I would like to say that yes, because they are wool...

It is listed as polyester in the label, but it is a woven (knit-like) texture with a shiny look to the outside. It is a fairly heavy-weight garment, and I feel it is good quality. I was very pleased with it.

100% wool vs 80% wool. I have both and they are both warm. I guess price is the difference that I see.

To be honest I bought mine for emergencies so I have not used it yet. However, it did seem to be itchy. I think most wool is unless you are buying cashmere. I could be mistaken. I hope this helps you. I highly recommend buying this blanket regardless as they do not make them of this quality anymore.

No wool. Man made fiber like nylon. They work well and feel good and are easier to put on after first time.

It is a polyester (dry cleaning recommended). The colors and stitching of the pattern give it some shine and depth, which is perhaps why it looks like suede in the photo. In reality, it doesn't look like suede.

Wow, RS, thank you so much for starting this thread. I'm allergic to most polyester fill and fabric (asthma and contact dermatitis) and was thinking of buying it only because they stated it was 100% cotton shell and fill. All cotton is hard to find at this sale price so I was going to buy it as a back up to my current one that's really held up well in 1.5 decades of use.

Hello Mira, Thanks for your interest in our products. As principle, we, at Bio Sleep Concept are using only "All Natural" and "Organic" components for our final products. In the case of the 3" Wool Topper, the cover is made out of 100% certified organic cotton cover, filled with Eco Valley pure wool. There is no spray of any kind on any of our products. What may happen, as the wool is totally pure and natural, is that the first few days after receiving the topper, you may smell the wool. This odor disappears very quickly. We receive the batch of wool from our North West growers and we card it in our shop. If the wool is very fresh, the smell may be more obvious for a small while. To finish, all of our products are chemical free and are never sprayed of anything. Please, do not hesitate to contact us for any more questions on our products. Sincerely, CM

I've owned 3 wool comforters. This one had a slight wooly odor when first opened. Also, wool is heavier than PFF, and this one is definitely heavier than that. It performs like wool, its assembled in USA from Australian wool--the cotton cover is made in China. I love this comforter--2 winters on it & still very warm & cozy!

I'm not sure where it's from. I bought it well over a year ago. I will say that it's good quality wool. I use it mostly for the base of my sculptures then add the color and detail after I get it nicely shaped with the white. See my sculptures at itsartbygolly.com

Not that I'm aware of. It may be a discontinued product which would explain why it's not on their website. I happen to LOVE this comforter. It's neither too warm or too cold as wool should be.

I cut out the tag as soon as I received the sleep mask because it would have been directly over one of my eyes. So, unfortunately, I do not know what the material is. It feels like satin both inside and out, but, honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if it is polyester. I'm sorry I'm not able to help you further.
