Історія моди
Established in 1830 by John Rich in Pennsylvania, Woolrich is the oldest continuous manufacturer of outdoor clothing in the United States. The company initially produced wool blankets for Civil War soldiers and later equipped Antarctic expeditions. It introduced the iconic Buffalo Check pattern in 1850. In the 1970s, the brand developed the Arctic Parka for Alaskan pipeline workers, cementing its role in functional fashion history and transitioning from industrial workwear to global apparel.
