The La Canadienne team gives you 5 reasons to add shearling to your wardrobe!
Shearling, winter's best ally
Want to wrap yourself in extreme softness, emotional and warm comfort?
In "peaux lainées" (shearling), there's the word "laine" (wool). And natural wool means softness, comfort, and warmth. Shaved wool, mixed wool, long wool… It's up to you to choose your preferred option.
In addition to being a must-have in any wardrobe, shearling provides all the necessary warmth for the body when temperatures drop. The ideal time to wear shearling is in cold, dry weather. The natural sheep or lamb wool can withstand temperatures as low as -15°C. Wearing shearling means staying warm in all circumstances while wearing a light and comfortable garment!
Shearling, a durable piece that lives and is passed down
At La Canadienne, our primary mission is to dress you in all weathers and for a long time. Choosing shearling means making a sustainable choice. Opting for shearling means choosing to acquire a timeless and fashionable piece that will cross seasons and generations.
Shearling, whether lamb or sheep, has the particularity of aging well. With proper care, it develops a patina over time, gaining value and style over the years. Regardless of the model and cut chosen, shearling is not just a winter purchase, but a lifetime one.
Shearling, superior quality, refined finishes, and European know-how
La Canadienne offers shearling pieces made from sheep, Tuscan lamb, Entrefino, and the finest quality European hides. Italian manufacturing at Artico and Manzoni 24 or Spanish manufacturing for our brand La Canadienne.
Patinated, oiled, or aged finishes… Lamb or sheepskin allows for various finishes, each as refined as the next.
A shearling with a suede finish will not change over time, even after 30 or 40 years. It will not develop a patina, unlike the aged or oiled finish (also known as nappa). The oiled or nappa finish has an artificial coating on the leather, which is why it develops a patina over time to return to its original appearance: suede.
Did you know? Small raindrops and snowflakes slide off a nappa finish, and stains are easily removed. At La Canadienne, we can re-nappa your shearling!
If you don't have the budget for fur, a long-haired Tuscan lamb shearling can be a very beautiful alternative.
Shearling, also in accessory form
Shearling isn't just found on sleeved garments; it also takes its place in accessories. Gloves and mittens from the Hestra brand in lamb or deer, or even La Canadienne slippers and fur-lined sandals.
So many accessories that are far from incidental, and that will bring you warmth, comfort, and style for the end of the year.
Shearling, an undeniable safe bet
Combining comfort, warmth, and style: it's possible! Shearling garments will satisfy you for many winters when temperatures drop. A symbol of sophistication, an ambivalence from retro to contemporary, shearling can dress all your silhouettes with elegance and modernity.
For men or women, there are a thousand and one ways to wear shearling. Chic or casual, classic or rock, sporty or rustic… For every style a cut and for every look a color!
Fitted or comfortable cut, reversible or non-reversible model, natural or dyed color, with or without a hood, with a patinated, oiled, or aged finish, sleeved pieces or small accessories… So many models allowing you to find THE shearling piece that will accompany you season after season and from generation to generation. So, are you ready to gain warmth without losing style and elegance?
