We're hosting a regional sample sale in the Chicago region!
Join us at Hawthorn Center in Vernon Hills, IL on September 12-13, 2025.
We rarely host in-person shopping events and we don't run sitewide sales, which is why we expect this sale to be so popular. This is your chance to try on different styles, touch the fabrics, see the colors, and meet fellow community members. Yes, you can purchase these items to take home with you that day!
This is the first of three regional sample sales planned for 2025. Stay tuned for more information on our October events in Austin, TX and the mid-Atlantic region of the US.

frequently asked questions:
WHAT WILL I FIND AT THE SAMPLE SALE?
Sample sale items consist of many first quality items such as retired styles and colors, prototypes and some returns that were unable to be restocked for various reasons. We'll have an assortment of wool& product (tops, bottoms, and dresses). We make every effort to launder sample sale items when needed so items will be clean, but there may be a stray hair or lint. Please note: we cannot guarantee the history of any items in our sample sale. If you have severe allergies, please be aware that these items may have been in contact with pets or scents.
HOW IS THE SAMPLE SALE DIFFERENT FROM THE MYSTERY SALE?
The sample sale is an in-person pop-up event and your best chance to try on sizes and explore our merino fabrics. It's also your chance to score some one of a kind prototypes.
WHAT SHOULD I BRING?
Please bring your own shopping bag/tote. We will have some bags available, but reusable bags are always a good idea. Fitting rooms will be available, but some customers find it helpful to wear leggings and a tank top for easy try-ons.
CAN I USE A GIFT CARD?
Gift cards cannot be used for sample sale purchases.
CAN I USE CASH?
This is a cashless sale. We will take electronic payments only.
HOW ELSE CAN I GET INVOLVED?
You've probably heard of our Facebook customer community—@wool& community: wardrobe challenges and chat. Our customers love to connect and share styling inspiration in our community; we hope you'll join too.
We will also host an in-person community meet up. Details will be announced in our customer community soon!
