Coarse wool refers to wool fibers that are thicker and stiffer compared to fine wool. It typically comes from breeds of sheep like the Romney, Lincoln, or Corriedale, which produce sturdy fibers suitable for durable textiles.

Its texture makes it less suitable for fine garments but ideal for functional use.

To mitigate this, they sometimes blended wool with softer fibers or used different types of wool for specific garments.
