When you think of woolen products, one name comes to mind: Woolrich Whether you're looking for a new blanket, shirt or jacket, Woolrich has been dedicated to producing quality wool products since their beginning. Founded woolrich clothing in 1830 in Woolrich, Pennsylvania, Woolrich got its start through manufacturing fabrics for the miners, trappers, hunters, and foresters of the US. Clothing and equipment produced by Woolrich helped to outfit soldiers during the Civil War and accompanied Richard Byrd on an Antarctic expedition.
This pattern has become so famous that in June of 2014, Dogfish Head Brewery and Woolrich teamed up to create a limited run beer known as the Pennsylvania Tuxedo to honor the black and red checkered pattern.
