The styles and designs that women wear are endless. There are many different styles of clothing for women. What about the men? There is a growing trend for more and more styles, but the basics are still the same. What are the most popular types of materials used for men’s clothing?
Wool. Wool is a material that comes from sheep. It’s no secret that wool is incredibly useful and has been used by both men and women. What can be done is endless. It has been dyed for many years using berries, and other natural materials. It is also very useful for making socks, jumpers and other clothing.
Cotton. Cotton is a popular alternative to wool for men’s clothing. It is not derived from animals but rather comes from cotton plants. The harvest is difficult as the cotton must be taken directly from the plant if it is to weave. Cotton can be made into everything, including trousers, shirts, and light jackets.
Leather. Leather has long been used for jackets, gloves, shoes and belts, for example. James Dean, Mad Max and more recently Negan from The Walking Dead have all worn it. It’s not bad for skin that comes from a cow. For more information on Mens Handmade Leather Belts, visit www.hipandwaisted.com/handmade/mens-leather-belts
Linen. Linen is made from flax. It is difficult to harvest, but it can dry faster and keep you cooler. Men’s summer clothing is often made from it, including summer trousers and smart jackets.
