Unlike traditional, dense sheepskin, the Xiaohu fiber has a minimal diameter and is almost entirely free of coarse guard hairs. This allows the skin to be tanned into an exceptionally thin, fluid canvas that doesn't resist the shirt-like cut, but instead drapes with the weight and grace of heavy silk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003eThe \"wave\" effect on the surface is neither embossed nor printed; it is a result of thermal modeling. After the wool is shorn to a precise, uniform height, controlled heat is used to \"guide\" the fleece. Because the Xiaohu fiber is naturally supple and consistent, it retains this direction, settling into organic, fluid cascades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003eThe Effect: This process creates a complex optical relief. It is not a shine in the conventional sense, but a living interplay of light within the depths of the wool. In the deep tones of Star Anise and Spilled Ink, this effect is most profound: light does not simply reflect off the surface; it becomes entangled in the curves of the waves, creating an illusion of movement even when still.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003eInside, the jacket reveals the \"clean face\" of the leather. As a true double-faced material, the skin and wool remain one. This allows the garment to retain the thermal inertia of a living material while remaining incredibly light. It is a piece without an underside, where the nature of the material is never hidden behind a lining, but remains open to the touch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComposition:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 100% natural double-faced Xiaohu shearling.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Borcelleclothes","offers":[{"title":"Star Anise \/ M","offer_id":51237380260056,"sku":"1005009362539085-green coffee-M","price":2554.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Star Anise \/ L","offer_id":51237380292824,"sku":"1005009362539085-green coffee-L","price":2554.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Spilled Ink \/ M","offer_id":51237380194520,"sku":"1005009362539085-black-M","price":2554.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Spilled Ink \/ L","offer_id":51237380227288,"sku":"1005009362539085-black-L","price":2554.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0702\/4790\/7544\/files\/women-cropped-shearling-shirt-jacket-star-anise.jpg?v=1771081861","url":"https:\/\/borcelleclothes.com\/products\/women-cropped-shearling-shirt-jacket-a-gesture-of-audacity","provider":"Borcelleclothes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
