Expression: the luxury of rare fibres

Scabal has introduced Expression, a Super 200’s blended with Vicuna and Chinchilla, now one of the finest suiting cloths in the Scabal collection. Fine looking, beautifully soft to the touch and with a natural drape that keeps well during use, Expression appeals through its elegance and the luxurious softness of rare fibres.

These precious, delicate fibers have been blended by the best weavers in our own Yorkshire mill in the heart of England’s textile industry. Their work is still based on the traditional techniques used by our ancestors.

Revered by Inca royalty, Vicuna hair has always been sought for its delicate fleeciness - so much so, that the small and agile camel was almost hunted to extinction in its native Andes highlands. Now under protection, Vicuna numbers have made a dramatic recovery, especially in Peru. Scabal’s imported Vicuna wool is supported by CITES certification, guaranteeing that the wool is truly a licensed original product, a scarce attribute in today’s competitive market.
