Our Story

New ways to celebrate Scottish wool.

Fleeced began on a hillside on the eastern side of the Mull of Kintyre, sheltered from the Atlantic by the spine of the peninsula. We bring new value to Scottish wool — transforming fleece from local hill farms into premium textiles and bespoke wool goods.

Using 100% traceable wool sourced directly from farms in the Campbeltown region, we champion local farming and Scottish manufacturing while celebrating the unique character of Scotland's diverse sheep breeds.

The smallest flocks have the richest stories. A few dozen ewes on a hillside farm produce fleece of extraordinary character — too precious to be lost to the commercial system. We pay fair prices to neighbouring farmers and small flock-holders, and turn their fleece into objects worth keeping.

The Blackface ewe.

Hardy, horned and unmistakable — the breed that has shaped Scotland's hills for centuries. Her fleece carries the strength and structure at the heart of every Fleeced piece.

Heritage breeds, fully traceable.
