Micron Count Decoder & Feel Simulator
Understand Wool Softness Ratings Visually
What This Tool Does
Confused by micron counts? This interactive tool lets you explore wool fiber thickness from 11-40 microns using a visual slider. See what each range feels like, compare to human hair, and learn which wool types fit each micron range.
How It Works
Drag the slider to explore different micron counts. Instantly see how it feels, what wool types have that micron count, ideal uses, and visual comparisons. Lower microns = softer wool.
Benefits
Make sense of technical specs when shopping. Know if “19 micron merino” is actually soft. Compare different wool types objectively. Understand what you’re paying for.
