JWM (Johnson Woolen Mills) GARMENT OF THE MONTH: March

The Johnson Woolen Mills Tradition reaches back to 1842 when local farmers brought their wool here to have it woven into cloth. In an age when fashions change overnight and markets vanish almost as fast, it is something of a miracle that we have survived through two centuries by rarely changing our main product line.
Located in the village of Johnson, Vermont, just north of skiing mecca Stowe, Vermont, the clothing company still makes the same woolen shirts, jackets and the famous iceman's pants that have been best sellers for decades.

Because we love this story just as much as we love the plaid, here at PVP, we have decided to feature a Johnson Woolen Mills Garment of the Month, which is available for purchase at the Johnson Woolen Mills Online Store. If you would like to purchase this fine piece for your very own, please go to the FRIENDS OF PVP column on the right hand side of this blog and click on the Johnson Woolen Mills link.
