Have you ever wondered why lumberjacks are associated with flannels? Wonder no more!
Talking about a clothing staple like this, flannel fabric suits the best because it is a comfortable, durable and very fine textured warm material. It works wonders for layering also. Thus to feel protected and convenient, the lumberjacks choose to wear flannel. More often than not, the pattern you see lumberjacks in is Buffalo Plaid or check. This is " plaid with large blocks formed by the intersection of two different color yarns, typically red and black."
