Josh Kirk: Mountain Man & Bison Rancher
We always say the best thing about working for WeatherWool is friendships we're building and Josh Kirk is just a fantastic fellow to be able to call a friend. We turned on the camera while Josh gave us a tour of the Ranch since Ralph and Debby were out there a few years ago.
Looking forward to spending more time with Josh in the future.

In 2023, WeatherWool decided we wanted to take a stab at making the American classic, fabric known as denim. Instead of using heavy cotton as commonly used, we wove it with 100% American, 100%Weather Wool-certified fine wool. WeatherWool Certified means it meets our requirements in microns, strength, and length. When we hear the word denim, many of us think of the rugged, durable cotton pants, ...

WeatherWool Fabric "Sponging" at American Woolen Company
I have a filson for 30 years from my father. Could a weatherwool last the same or better? Does anyone have their coat more than 6 years old? do they make balls?😅😅
Will this hat ever be made again?
Awesome thanks for sharing guys☘️
Great vid guys, American Bison seem like the closest thing we still have of modern dinosaurs nowadays, really amazing getting to see so much of them thanks.
Josh is a lot of fun to be around, and Cody did a terrific job with the video! THANK YOU --- Ralph
That guy makes me question whether I’m actually a man. Suppose that goes for either of them.
The bison are enormous, plus amazingly fast. And I don't understand their moods. So to me, they are very scary!! And Josh is telling me THEY CAN SMELL FEAR. That didn't help!! -- Ralph
I heard the first one to like and comment on this video gets a free piece of WeatherWool😊. Great video. These animals are powerful and deserve respect.
It’s a common misconception but it’s actually the second.
@@Bfettrules 😀
I support WeatherWool. Love the functionality of the designs and the quality of the materials. I'm an actual poor barber from the Midwest. Their products are well worth saving a little longer to afford. Many thanks to Ralph, Alex and the entire Weatherwool family for maintaining the quality and integrity of an all American made and supported premium product. I truly rely on the performance of all my WeatherWool pieces to see me through the Midwest winters and beyond. Thank you. -Wayne from South Dakota
THANKS WAYNE!!!!! --- Ralph
Interesting!
“God knows what He’s doing” my favorite quote of the whole video. 😊
nice video with great commentary on its versatility.
how does the wool denim feel up against the skin?
It's really soft and comfortable. No itch or scratch as you might expect from 100% wool. I wore the denim pants sample last winter and into the spring, and they are like comfortable sweatpants. You won't be disappointed. - Cody
Been wearing my Medium Chore Coat last few days here in west TN, can't wait for the cooler weather to stay. The Medium is a great fit for me over my Small CPO. Love wearing this stuff.
I told Ralph that weather wool is the only outerwear im buying. Getting rid of all my old stuff and replacing it with weather wool. I would pay twice the amount for this quality of items.
Once you have a piece, you'll never go back to the junk you get at REI.
Cody is correct. U should check out what Filson is charging. They charge the same (actually more in some instances) and it feels like you’re wearing a steel Brillo it’s so itchy and it’s mostly made in China. U get superb quality with weatherwool. Please pick one or more of their garments as I have. No I don’t work for them. Just a very satisfied customer who is pro made in USA. Think of it as an investment because these are quality, buy it for life garments.
Thanks
Thanks for the video! What’s the weight and warmth comparison to the midweight CPO? Also, how’s the mobility vs the midweight CPO?
Denim weight about the same as MidWeight Fabric. It has performed very well in the weather. I haven't had a chance to wear it myself much over the winter but I was pleased with how well it performed. Not up to the performance of MidWeight in my opinion but will have a better-informed opinion come April 2025. As you can see in the vid, Cody was very happy with weather-resistance. Mobility same as MidWeight in my experience. Thanks --- Ralph
In my opinion what the MidWight does better than the denim is trap air in the wool itself. It’s more breathable. I love the feeling of a cool breeze coming and then feeling the warm air blow through on my skin. Not sure if that makes sense, but in other words, I’m less likely to build up sweat in the MidWeight. So if wearing directly on skin like a CPO vs Chore Coat I’d say go mid weight CPO. The Jacquard fabric is pretty special. On the other hand, as a work coat dealing with saw dust or just general work coat I’d probably prefer the denim. It’s pretty tough stuff.
Thanks for sharing ☘️
@@WeatherWool Thanks Ralph!

@@WeatherWool I fit in better here 🤣🤣
You guys should consider making a weather wool greatcoat. Not only will it be an awesome product, but it would probably make the company more well-known if you brought an old relic back to modern times...just some food for thought.
THANK YOU ... We are working on the North Maine Double Coat ... You might be interested in that!!! Best Regards -- Ralph
Weather Wool is hands down the best. Not only in the product but also in the relationship that is established with the customer. They have gone above and beyond for me
Great working with you, Caleb!!! --- THANKS --- Ralph
Is the chore coat warm? I want something nicer for work and was eyeing this but I cant tell how much warmth and loft it has.... thank youl.
We are very happy with the performance in the weather so far. But we haven't had it "in the field" with customers very long. Only since April. We had a few pieces ourselves that we wore last winter, and we decided to offer the Denim to customers. I think it's not quite the performance of the MidWeight, but it's also a totally different animal. The fiber is the same as our other Fabrics, but everything else is different. You can always return if not happy (our standard policy). THANKS!! -- Ralph
Just bought an AAJ and two anoraks and now im seeing this too!?
Well ... a lot cheaper than cars!! --- Hope you like the wool you already have. THANK YOU!!!! -- Ralph
Fascinating. I’m excited to try a denim CPO!
If you are looking for anyone to do some testing in the outdoors, let me know. I've had an anorak for a couple of years now and love it.
Such a wonderful documentary. The world needs more men like Jim. I hope I get to meet him someday.
Dadgummit. Would love to get one of those chore coats!
Great video! Will these fade over time like cotton denim?
That's a good question and i don't know the answer ... but i have sent a query to the experts at American Woolen! ... Will get back! --- Ralph
@@WeatherWool Great, thanks a lot!
Still need to try Weatherwool denim! Pants when?!!! 😂
I have the chore coat in indigo. Love it. Probably gonna pick up charcoal in the next week or so.
@@Bfettrules that's what I was thinking myself: Charcoal in the next week or so
@@andrewdg90 it’s a great BIFL investment. Filson is charging more and the quality is nowhere near as good as weatherwool.
We are finalizing the design on the Denim Pants now. I am insisting on a cellphone pocket -- with a zipper -- at the side of the thigh ... behind the handwarmer pocket and a few inches lower. I keep thinking EVERYONE eventually is going to wonder why they ever wore clothing that didn't provide a truly secure pocket for the phone! --- Expecting to ship some of these Pants this year --- Ralph
Excellent video!
Are you telling me I'll be able to wear wool denim pants under my wool poncho?
YESSIR ... i think we'll be shipping some denim pants this year, but we have not finalized the design yet --- Ralph
Nice little vid. It'd be great to have a longer one where you make passes on the cotton denim and count how many passes it takes until total failure/disintegration of the fibers, and then do the same for the WeatherWool. Real torture test stuff, CZcams's full of gear reviews and testers doing that kinda thing.
the passion in that great man at American Woolen is touching. i want to support a man and industry like this.
Just think of the implications for light weight yet durable summer blankets. Looking forward to the future of this fabric and its possibilities. Thx for filming this and sharing it with us.
THANK YOU. We have been offering blankets for a while, but have not thought about Denim Blankets yet!! -- Ralph
I’d like to by my chore coat pre sanded
Seriously? Yikes!! -- Ralph
Maybe try to keep everything else in stock first before trying to offer new products
It's a very particular kind of wool they use (rambouillet merino), and there are not many ranches here in the U.S. that have the sheep they can harvest it from, thus it's a very finite supply. They make to orders from their site. Doesn't cost you anything to put in an order though.
Chore coats are in stock now. With a production cycle that typically spans 12-18 months (weatherwool.com/pages/start-to-finish), we tend to be sold out a lot. We have just lately switched to a system where we make mostly the items that have been reserved. This will help us make more efficient use of our Fabrics, and fill more orders. If you intend to purchase, let me know directly, please. Best Regards -- Ralph
@@WeatherWool You are completely dependent on other companies. If one of them goes down your business grinds to a halt (covid). I'd think a logical first step is after the fabric is made to bring the sewing of the products in house. Shorten the production cycle. And thank you for updating the website. Still needs work but it's far better than it was.
@@user-st9wh4ed5l We ARE completely dependent on other companies. And this is completely standard. EVERYONE is dependent on many others. If we had our own sew shop, we'd still depend upon the people who make thread ... and there are precious-few American thread-makers. The dependencies go on and on and on. But anyway, running a sew shop is a huge undertaking. There are over 60 different "operations" involved in the sewing of our Anorak. Machines, skilled and experienced workers ... and even-more-skilled and experienced managers are required. We depend upon MANY Partners (weatherwool.com/pages/partner-relations). Our Partners have long experience, wide knowledge and large investments in their work. Glad you like the updated website. YEP, still needs lots of work. EVERYTHING needs lots of work!!! Thanks, Best Regards --- Ralph
@@user-st9wh4ed5lalright but, why don't you give it a shot?
Ooo, super excited!!!
Thank you for a very interesting and informative video about your development in wool. Heading over to website now😅
Great informational video! Very interesting! I am definitely doing my part to help the wool industry! Love my Weatherwool, Heatstraps, and Duckworth wool products! It's not cheap, but its 100% worth it.
Long live weatherwool.

Wow, when Mr. Innes said, “I believe that’s what they told the “Injuns” too”. Made me stand up! History always repeats when people do not know their history…AND then continue on as if nothing happened…when a seismic insult just did! 100 years later and now Mr. Innes now knows what the “Injuns” back then experienced…being jipped!!!…being bold faced lied to while they expect your honest intentions all the while they KNOW that they are completely sandbagging you!! I guess the government will always shaft the sh*t out of anyone for money…and POWER!
Exactly, stay out of the way from what nature has given us! BEST ADVISE EVER….FOR EVERY ASPECT OF LIFE…IN MY OPINION.
Why do these sheep make me feel like I am looking at elves? Anyone know what the kind of sheep these are? Hopefully it will be stated as this documentary goes on. Now I am going to guess..baby dolls? IDK! After listening a while boy was I completely off base, however, IDKY, but I find this man and his…and his family’s journey positively interesting and inspiring! Just a down right great success story based on the spirit contained within generations of dedication to one thing! This truly is how legends are made.
Great way to start the weekend with a WeatherWool vid 😊
THANK YOU MUCH!!!!!!!!!! --- And THANKS to Cody and Bob Innes (and a bunch of others, too!!)!!!!!!!!! --- Ralph
What an awesome interview/documentary. A legend captured forever. Where could someone purchase a basket from Jim?
THANK YOU! Sorry, but Jim's not even taking requests for his baskets. He has a big backlog, but he's not really in the basket-making business anyway. It's done on a personal rather than professional basis.
@@WeatherWool completely understandable. 🙂 I kinda gathered that from the video, which makes it all the better. Every basket hand delivered and probably never travels out of the state. Nevertheless, thanks for capturing this.
Still a kick butt video!
