| 420 | Heavyweight | Dense, warm | Most popular tier — hoodies, shorts, sweats | Hoodies, Shorts, Sweats |
| 460 | Extra heavyweight | Very thick, structured | Cold weather, premium feel | Zip jackets, signature sweats |
| 500 | Ultra-heavyweight | Maximum density | Extreme warmth, statement pieces | Premium hoodies and sweats |
| 800 | Maximum weight | Extremely thick and stiff | Specialty and collectible pieces | Limited WOOLEN pieces |
