English term or phrase: wool felt
The text I'm translating has plenty of this material but I normally would use "fieltro de lana" for hats, maybe bags. This collection, however, uses **wool felt** for trims, coats, jackets, etc. However, it also mentions "wool jersey" dresses, pants, etc (vestidos, pantalones de punto de lana) and then it simply uses wool pants or wool skirts a couple of times: falda de lana, pantalón de lana.
How would you translate it, then? Thanks a lot!

Ah, claro que sí, paño. En cuanto leí la respuesta me dije "¿pero cómo se me puede haber pasado?" Puse "paño" en la traducción y el cliente me dijo que pusiera "fieltro de lana"!
No hay justicia en el mundo. Paño, sí señor.
