The Sheep’s Back

The Sheep’s Back has been operating in Launceston for more than 10 years

Fine wool, sheepskin and natural fibre products

The Sheep's Back is the perfect destination for those who appreciate high-quality clothing made from natural fibres. As soon as you step into the store, you'll be greeted by the soft and cozy feel of wool, cashmere, possum and alpaca garments.

The attention to detail in each item is evident, with carefully crafted stitching and unique designs that reflect the beauty of Tasmania's landscape. The shop offers an extensive range of clothing, from stylish knitwear to elegant coats, thermal underwear and socks, all made from the finest materials. They also stock a wide range of ugg boots, slippers and sport boots that are lined with the softest wool fibres for those cold winter days.

Whether you're looking for a weekend sweater or a statement coat, The Sheep's Back Launceston has something for everyone. Their dedication to quality, sustainability, and style makes it a must-visit destination for fashion-conscious shoppers.

WHY WE LOVE IT

  1. Their range of clothing, shoes and accessories are so warm and stylish.
  2. They stock beautiful wool blankets and teddies for babies.
  3. Clothes made from natural fibres like wool last far longer than synthetic fibres, which helps reduce textile wastage in the fashion industry.
