“Hawaiian” and “wool” seems like an oxymoron !

Johnson Woolen Mills is a icon here in Northern New England. I have been going to the mill store for more years than I want to count. There green wool hunting pants are awesome. The problem is you cannot wear them out. The past 15 years or so they were falling on hard times and either closed for a time or were close to closing. A gent purchased them a few years back and has revitalized the mill and store. I am glad for that. The mill store reminds me of the original LL Bean store. Creaky wooden floors and a smell that you cannot explain but know it is good

It is a bit of a stretch but what a fashion statement!
